I was overhearing some girls at my party last weekend talking about how much they have spent so far on Christmas Gifts for their children.
I don't have kids yet, But I do have a Miller to shop for. :D
Anyhow, I'm curious as to what the average amount spent on your kids is these days?

Well so far it appears I'm pretty average after all...these girls were in the $3000 range each. I was blown away as I don't think I'd spend that much on a 4 year old.

What the heck do you buy a 4 year old that costs that much? :confused:

I try to stay under $500 per kid (have 2) but mine are 5 (boy) and 6 (girl). And this year my boy wanted a motorcycle. And like any 5 and 6 yr old what one has the other wants so they each get one this year. As you guys may recall i was looking for one a couple of weeks ago and did not have much luck localy. So me and the wife started to get them other gifts. And wouldent you know it i ran into a guy wanting to buy my jeep who just happen to have a 2002 RM jr 50 and 1994 trizinger 80. So i took off $1200 in the deal and the kids not only get the bikes but all the other gifts too. I wish i had it this good when i was thier age! So new total for X-Mas this year on kids is about $1600 :D

By the way...I agree this little 4 year old is SPOILED and typically distroys everything within 3 seconds flat....so I would be at the buck store buying crap if it were my kid.
