Default Re: Average holiday spending $ ?

I am probably a little unusual here, but i have a very small family and not many to buy for.

If I have a serious man in my life, i usually spend about $200 on him, and maybe $200 on everyone else. Everyone else would just be my mom and sis, maybe something small for my neighbor, a friend or two and the 3 people at work. My mom and sis don't have a lot of extra $$, so they prefer to tone it down and not go crazy like we used to.

My dad and 2 half brothers generally doesn't care to exchange gifts and i dont' see them frequently anyway. Of the 4 siblings, none of us is married or has kids, so that really simplifies things.
