I posted this in single parents coz thats me grin

My lg is doing up her list for santa at minute and my god has she a good one

top of list is a pup (we have 2 dogs)
next is a baby brother (yeah right santa is not getting that close to me)
Camera

dolls
and half the argos/smyths book

boy has stuff got expensive this year or is it just me, Santa has to produce stuff for the big day but I am going to be doing a lot of shopping in the sales. No way am i paying for something I can get a week later for less.

How is everyone else finding it this year ???

Hi Annie,

have a look on adverts.ie they have great stuff there and you can barter the price aswell..

I think during the boom money was flowing so parents allowed Santa to bring lots of expensive stuff and Im not giving out about anyone because I probably would have done it myself.. SO check out the differant sites as there are bargains to be had

Santa doesn't have much money this year, due to restrictions imposed by the ECB, tell this to all the kids, it's never too early to expose them to financial realities.

agree with crazylegs there..

as a society we allowed kids get a lil over spoilt..some of us trying to drag it back to a decent state wont work..cos say u get ur child 2 things...and lil johnny in school..or 12 of them..their parents dont...

suddenly ur kids thinking ..hey whats wrong with me..

so people going out getting loans n spoiling their kids..really ur spoiling society.

best toys a kids has is its imagination..something thats highly redundant thesedays sadly
