Hand Held Electronic Games

Do you go overboard for the holidays? What did you get YOUR kids?
I was just wondering how crazy some folks get buying till they are tapped dry. I have done some reading on Yahoo Answers and see some folks spend upwards of $500 per child!
What did you get your kids this year?
I got my 12 year old: Digital camera accessories (to go with a 3 year old digital camera I upgraded from), Electronic hand held 20 questions and a The Fray CD.
I got my 8 year old: A barbie styling head, a birdhouse art kit, the 20 questions hand held game and Trouble (the board game).
I’m pretty proud that both will get what they want and I did NOT go broke. I spent only about $100 (not including the digital camera)
Well I’d say you’re doing quite a good job. Parents who spend $500+ on their kids are stupid and are spoiling their children. I am around the age of your 12 year old and I have to say that I would be quite happy with those things. Last Christmas my parents got us an Xbox. But, instead of actually giving it to us, they gave it to my mother so that she could say “you’ve played too much xbox, and its mine so get off.” and that way it is always under control and won’t be overused or anything. Plus the price was dispersed throughout all of us, so it wasn’t too expensive overall. I think you’re doing a great job, keep up the good work!
