00:00 How much roughly do you spend on your Christmas shopping each year?
00:03 Well I've got three quids so it's about £100 each.
00:05 Three kids not three quids.
00:06 Three kids, sorry yeah. Three kids £100 each.
00:10 And has that gone up or down in recent years?
00:12 I would say that's probably, we've tried to keep it the same
00:14 but we're probably getting less for it.
00:17 And same for you?
00:18 So my wife is obviously more generous than yours.
00:21 We've got two kids and we probably spend about £300 on each of them.
00:26 Each? Wow.
00:26 Each of them.
00:27 I'm being Scrooge.
00:28 Yes it would be less if it was up to me but no it's very much up to my missus.
00:32 How much do you spend on your Christmas shopping?

00:43 Yeah it's gone up yeah.
00:44 So how much do you spend on your Christmas shopping each year?
