[quote=Anonymous]If you can afford it, why would you want to hurt his feelings? He obviously put thought into the gift and like a PP said, you can, down the road a bit, have a conversation about gifts/money/spending caps but not right now. DH overspent on me last Christmas so this year I brought up the topic of Christmas and said "we just spent all this money remodeling, would you be OK if we just considered that part of our gift to each other?" He said yes, he would be OK with that. Just to be sure, I followed up the week of Christmas and said "seriously, I have nothing for you under the tree from me, the kids got you little things but there's nothing from me... are we still good with that or did you get something for me?" He said he was still good, there was nothing under the tree for me and we were both happy.[/quote]
