Usually we lay low during the season and end up only buying a couple of presents.

It seems we were invited to a bunch of gatherings this year, and had to buy some stuff. I cringe looking at my bank statement…

So… How much did people spend on Xmas stuff for other people?

A. $0 - $100 “Bah Humbug, need to save for Spring Mods yO!”  
B. $101 - $250 “Tis the Season…”  
C. $251 - $500 Generous (and/or foolish)  
D. $501 - $1000 Time to cool down that CC  
E. $1001 and up No Spring Mods FTL

E over here… Time to get that second job man…

Wayne and I did most of our shopping online at [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com) on Thanksgiving night and saved a boat load of money this year, and I did the rest of the shopping on Black Friday and got some sweet deals, I think we came in the “B” category. Usually we are C or D.

Nice to see I’m not alone.

I’ve spent $0.00.

I am playing secret santa though, but I haven’t gotten that gift yet. The limit is $20 so…

I don’t give, and I don’t get. Fine by me.

I know my mom’s going to be extremely pissed about getting tires too.

I know she wanted a bigger TV for the living room, but there was no way I was spending that much on her. So, because I am me, I’m putting the tires in the box my 55" Samsung came in and wrapping it and giving it to her.
