How much do you spend on your child's Christmas?

Just curious really. How much do you spend and do you have a main present as well as smaller ones? This year I think I have spent about £150 each on my children (a boy aged 9 and a girl aged 5). My son is getting a Whiplash scooter and we have bought my daughter a go-kart.

£50 each on a normal year, but if they want something more expensive like a bike, tv, laptop, then its a joint christmas/birthday present

nornally about 60 to 80 pounds each but a couple of years ago we bought them a cheapish TV each and this year they're getting refurbished laptops WHICH THEY HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT! and I can't wait to see their faces on christmas morning. this is a real treat for them. they are 15 and 11 and never really ask for much

DS who is 1 ive spent about £300 on and DD who is 12 weeks old the total is just under £230. Got them both some clothes in that budget too though and had some great bargains from grabbits Sooo looking forward to christmas this year!

So ar I've spent about £150 each on the 2 small children but there are other things I will buy. The older 2 are adults. The youngest of the adults says there's nothing he'd like and the other one I haven't asked yet but probably £200. It isn't really about how much we spend it's about what they'd like.

its different every year - I think the most I ever spent was the year she got her Nintendo DS, she probably had about £150 worth that year.

This year (she is 9) she hasn't really got much on her list, and what she has asked for I've got almost all on sale, so I don't think I've even spent £50 this year, and her Santa sack will be overflowing!

So far I've spent £382 on DS who's nearly 5. I've only got 3 more thing to go so the total will be around the £450 mark
That's made up of 1 main present which is a tv/dvd player then smaller things.

And no I don't feel bad for spending what I do on him

what can you buy for a 12wk old that would cost £230?
