We've never spent more than $100 on each of the kids at Christmas.
But this year is the exception.
They'll be getting one expensive gift between them, a Nintendo WII, then each gets two individual gifts, one gets a book of 501 science experiments to do around the home (oh god what have I done) and a model space shuttle, the other gets a field guide to rocks and minerals and a folding fishing chair/back pack.
Each will get some cash that they can spend as they wish.
I'm at a loss as to what to get my 22yr old son.
Our neighbour is very extravagant with her kids. Last year she bought her 9yr old daughter a new mobile phone, a $300 signet ring, a new 51cm tv, and the rest. Easily up to $1000 worth.
The ring was lost in the paddock the next day.
Her $400 gold watch she got for her 10th birthday a few weeks ago, just turned up again down at the creek.
