Poll started 10 May 2022

Martin celebrated his landmark 50th birthday this week, and naturally we celebrated by updating our Birthday freebies guide – a round-up of the best goodies you can claim on your birthday. While another trip around the sun is a perfect excuse to treat yourself and others, the cost can really add up. With as many birthdays as there are people in our lives, it leaves us wondering, how much do you spend on birthdays each year?

I buy my dad a card.  Which costs about £1.50. That's all I spend.

I stopped sending the kids anything a few years ago.  I do lots of things for them throughout the year (decorating, tax returns, all sorts of things) but don't give them cards or money on their birthday, I don't really see the point.
