Default Re: How much would you spend..

For a 6 month old?? They don't have a clue that they are even supposed to get gifts on Christmas, but I know the parents do and that is basically who you are pleasing at such a young age. I'd go to yard sales, thrift stores, consignment shops, etc. and get a few age appropriate toys and spend maybe $25.00 total. Wrap each one individually so that it appears to be alot and do like tina said, open a savings account for the little one and save!! Believe me, I have 5 kids, and they can't hardly even tell you what they got last Christmas, but they can tell you what we did, what games we played, who came over, etc. You wanna make Christmas special, but make it about the getting together, the meal that you share, the making of cookies, good memories, not about presents!
