Christmas presents

Post by Kwacky »

I've no idea what I want and I've no idea what to get my wife.

I've saved money by not going into work, so I've been buying what I need as I go along.

I've asked my wife what she wants and I get a shrug.

I can't even buy her the usual spa day as she's not been able to use the one I bought her last Christmas.

I find it so difficult to buy people aged 40-60 presents... everyone has everything they want by this age.

We dont buy each other presents . The only presents we buy these days are for younger children in the family and some money for the kids.

There is frankly no point these days.

Same. We stopped buying present just after we had kids, it gets really expensive buying for 8 adults but then you add kids into the mix.

Now we just email each other a list of things the kids want, and also we keep to a tough budget per child.

I’ve bought all the kids stuff online while I’ve been away. Jess has literally run out of room to store stuff (lol) In my defence there is 4 kids to buy for in the house now.

As for Jess and I, we bought a selection of good gins and as we have 4 days kid free between Boxing Day and NY’s )with them at their other parents) we’ve booked 4 nights away up in Newcastle as our Christmas present to each other. It’s going to be awesome after 6 weeks away.
