Yeah I think it is sad that We must pay interest on gifts that We realy didnt have the money to buy in the first place.

I agree. I kind of tried to save money on gifts keeping the interest in mind even this year! That is bad.
My girlfriend told me not to use my credit card. So I bought her present online with my PayPal money from writing articles and doing stock photos (see my threads I've started if you want more info on that). It was still an expensive present!

Credit cards come in handy but it is sad to have to use them for Christmas

No. I have a lot of plans and I wait till i get my bonus. Credit cards are out of question cos I have to keep what ever balance for emergency. I am planning to colourwash my house and a lot of other things. That all depends. I keep my fingers crossed.

I already bought for everyone. I used the money I had - didn't charge any of the gifts this year. I cut back on everyone a little, except for my nephew (due in May). My nephew is getting 26 gifts..and he's not even born yet. Oh well. I didn't have enough money to buy people what they'd really wish for (like a plasma tv or something!), but I did have enough to buy something for everyone on my list.

I DO NOT have enough money to buy the gift I wish I could get! I will be cheap and just get things that maybe I know they will use. I've bought some things already.....Also with the baby coming I don't want to buy really expensive gifts because I know eventually I'll need the money!

We try to make as many presents as we can to keep the costs down, also its about thought not price, so many of our gifts are very cheap indeed, but were chosen with a lot of care, love and attention

Hey, the best things in the world are free! Sometimes we worrying things in life without noticing the things that are more important. Giving love in Christmas, doing good, righteousness to others in everything that we do are things perfectly must be expected on Christmas time. Especially if we will celebrating Christmas everyday. Be happy HE is providing all good things for us.
