Although this idea isn’t a new one, I really like the idea of giving “want, need, wear and read” gifts each year for Christmas. I think it’s a great idea to not only help keep costs down, but to possible reduce some of the spoiling!
I’m wondering: How do you keep Christmas gift giving in check? Do you?

I always set a limit before I head out shopping for Christmas gifts. This year the limit was $50 for siblings, $125 for parents. It really encourages me to look for deals so I can get a better gift for the same amount of cash, especially when you have 8 siblings and 4 parents and 4 grandparents to shop for!
