[quote=Anonymous]Agree that we def don't wait for extravagance at Xmas for a big gift.  I mean I've gotten joke presents for my kids before - it's not about the money.

That said if I see something of tremendous value I will also spend for my kids.  I mean we went abroad and yes I brought DD $150 and $200 clothing items.  Why?  Because we will never run across them again.  Because she will be able to wear it for like the next 50 years.  She'll have those mulberry silk pants forever and the style  and cut and fit is timeless.  Because the value is more than the cost.  At home it'll be junk target clothing but a couple pieces will be treasures and we all should have that even teens because they aren't kids anymore.. they aren't 9 years old.  They are 14 and 15. Old enough to  know quality and junk.

Gifts are the same for us - it's not the cost but the value. Life isn't lived through just 1 day - whatever we find through the year we may choose to gift our kids and takes pressure off Xmas. [/quote]
