Christmas and the holiday season is an expensive time of year.

    Spent about £80 quid on presents. Only have two people to buy for

    Food, nothing much extra, just bought as normal, alcohol I buy wine from virgin wines and had enough in my wine account to buy 6 bottles of wine without it costing me anything extra, had it already saved up

    Thats it. I dont go overboard, cant afford to.
