[quote=Anonymous]My parents didn’t have a ton of extra money when I was growing up, each kid always got one or two “big” gifts that were probably $50-100 total, plus a handful of smaller things that they knew we would be excited about. During elementary school, I remember getting things like new earrings (from Target), books, maybe some cute accessories like a scarf or hat. We also always had to make a Christmas wish list so that my parents knew generally what we wanted and were hoping to get. In years when they had a little less money to spend, they were up front about it so we knew what to expect. I never felt deprived and have so many great memories of Christmas time. [/quote]
