I've never really been Christmas shopping before but I went for the first time last night. We wanted to let our toddler pick out an early Christmas gift for herself. I had SEVERAL adults (without children accompanying them) either try and shove their way through me with my toddler or give us death stares when I didn...

So my friend has 2 kids, (I have 1) we buy for each others at Xmas but usually spend around £20ish and around £10 on eachother, so only small gifts. I was talking to my friend about it and we agreed the same this year, because my daughter is getting a STUPID amount of gifts! Tell me why my friend dropped off 3 massi...

My MIL told me that’s way too friendly to do and I shouldn’t have sent a card. I mean she plays a huge part in mine and my daughter’s life. It’s not like I got her a gift?

Originally my husband and I agreed no christmas gifts for eachother this year just the kids since money is tight, I kind of prompted that idea knowing I'd probably get nothing anyway, but then we changed it to stockings and one gift for eachother and now it's just kinda whatever we want. I got him two gifts was plan...

I picked an appropriate sized Picasso tile set for the amount of kids but is this insensitive? Should I find separate gifts for them? I have a small budget at a lot of families to buy for. ($50 per family 5 families)

Because I'm not 🤣🤌🏾😵‍💫...

Is it crazy to get my baby a Xmas gift?? He’s due May 26th🤣🤗

Just need to vent because I feel alone and I don’t like complaint about my partner to my family or friends. My boyfriend accidentally kicked a present under the tree. All I said was careful, you kicked a present. Then he starts to kick it more, and then one really hard kick to it made me yell “stop” and he didn’t li...

I ordered gifts for my son on December 7th and it hasn’t even been shipped yet. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Is this okay for a Christmas Eve box for a 1 year old?

Instead of buying stuff to put in our son's (he's 2) stocking we decided to go through his toys he hasn't played with in a while and wrap up what's still age appropriate and that we think he'd enjoy and put those in his stocking so he has more to unwrap on Christmas without having to buy stuff he m.y or may not end ...

Not sure what she got but it’s just annoying.

Those “what’s his is mine” stay at home mums, what’s your take on this? 👀 I used money that was gifted to me for my birthday/Christmas that has been accumulated over the years by family to get my husband a his birthday presents and Christmas presents. Doesn’t seem fair to use family money for personal gifts imo…

What are some stocking stuffer you would get your man. I need some ideas, he is so hard to shop for that I am not sure what to get besides a bar of soap.

Husband hasn’t bought me a present yet, hasn’t bought me anything from my son which is what matters the most to me, it’s too late for online shopping, I’m going to get some sort of last minute ‘that’ll do’ present out of Tesco, or I’ll be waking up on Christmas with nothing. It just annoys me that he never thinks. N...

We have always had stockings hanging at Christmas but have never actually used them. I want to make use of them this year. I dont want to put presents in them. Does anyone have any alternative things they fill them with?

I'm just wondering how people will or already do tell their kids about presents at Christmas. Are all presents from Santa or just some? I have an older son already and will do the same for my youngest. We tell him that some presents are from Santa and some are from us. I don't want Santa to take all the credit for...

Long Story short the one I have is white gold and I now only wear yellow gold so am not wearing it. What if I bought another one in yellow gold? I miss seeing a diamond on my hand but I appreciate that it’s not really an engagement ring if it’s bought after the engagement

Hi, I usually buy his gift with his own money for christmas 😅 but I've been thinking what if I try to make it more special and make something at home for him? Any ideas will help thanks.

Do your family get presents for your SKs at Christmas? Ie. Your parents / siblings / grandparents etc. This is our first year with a baby so obviously my family have bought lots for baby, and have gotten SD little gifts but I feel like my partner is abit annoyed that they've spent more money on baby. I see it as ...
