MarkRaby Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Do you think that's too much for a lowly college student? -Mark-
Mike Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 BTW, will you hit 1k already. The suspense is too much to bare...
alimfp Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 WOW is right! I won't even spend 1/4 of that and I have three kids, lmao!
queenofshopping Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 whoa...my budget is $250 (but of course i stretch it with my bargain-shopping skills so nobody gets anything 'cheap')
ebony0421 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 That is alot money, but if you planned for it, it's ok
MarkRaby Posted December 1, 2005 Author Posted December 1, 2005 BTW, will you hit 1k already. The suspense is too much to bare... In due time... -Mark-
Guest all2tired Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 That's a lot of $$. Thankfully I was able to get TRU gift cards and web certificates from MyPoints so that I was able to get just about everything I needed. There were only a few items left to get and I got them on BF
blackdaniel Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Hey don't feel bad. So far I've spent 1200$ just on my girlfriend!
mommie75 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 i have probaly already spent that much or more and that does count stuff i have in laya way. but i still have stockings and all grandparants ect to buy for still
tootsieroll23 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I don't look to see what I spend until I have gotten what everyone wants.
amandasdennis Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I think we are over 2,000 on Christmas...We spend a ton on Christmas each year. We like to think of Chrstimas like crazy times because you just don't know who will get to be there with you next year to celebrate too! The voices in my head say buy buy buy
Mommie2one Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I don't even want to add up my receipts. LOL.
Jennifer0530 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I have no idea what I have spent this year and I don't want to know. I buy all year long then I don't have to think about it!
Rebirth Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Do you think that's too much for a lowly college student? -Mark- WAY TOO MUCH!!
noaimhere Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Really? That is too much? I've spent that on my kids (3) and about $500 on dh. And I plan to spend $300 more on Robotech things.
best4less Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 We usually spend that, if not a little more, every year. This year I was lucky enough to have earned a bunch of free GC's from various promo's plus to be honest, my heart just isn't into Christmas this year so....although I am not done shopping yet- I think my total will be around $850 this year for 14 people.
outnumbered Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Well, it depends on your income...for me, that's an insane amount of money and I won't be spending anywhere near that much on my kids, dh, and all relatives combined. I can't picture you as a college student making more than we're pulling in, but I don't know. The Army doesn't pay much. You're definitely quite generous! Are you including your BB bucks and other discounts in that total, or is that $1500 all out of pocket?
amandasdennis Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I don't even want to add up my receipts. LOL.You know, I am normally like that, but my husband went to the ATM to get cash!!!
Great Dane Mom Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Aaaaaah, grasshopper, the question is not how much have you spent, but how much have you saved? I must be getting really close to "saving" a million dollars by now!
timbermommy Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 speaking of saving.. i went to pennys.. looked at my recepit and i saved more then i spent!!!!! i spent 241.14 .. i saved 274.99 WOOO GOOO KRISTA GOOOO KRISTA lol ive spent 1100 on christmas and ive got a puppy to buy .. and 300 to spend on the ole man
neice0510 Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Okay I feel better now, knowing that I'm not the only one who went a bit nuts. We have spent 1200 on kids (our three and two neices) and little stuff for me and dh. Still have 100 left to spend on family and one big thing for dh.An ipod.
