I thought it would be interesting to see how much the "average" family/person spends on Christmas on gifts, decorations, food, etc.

I'd say on average my husband and I spend about $350-$400 on gifts, but we don't buy for tons of people, and we don't exchange gifts with each other.

We probably spend about $30 per year just on decorations (We really got into it this year, though and spent too much. We couldn't resist with my 6-year old nephew coming to stay with us for 10 days!) and maybe an extra $50 on food.

Altogether that's about $500, and we don't have any children (no human children anyway )!

How much do you spend?
