I used to be able to just decide not to spend much on Christmas, or work out a good budget plan and say "okay, this is how much I have to spend on everyone". But all that went out the window when I got married and my wife decided to buy everyone a TON of stuff even though I told her we needed to watch how much we spend on people.

Back when I just had 6-7 people to buy for it wasn't bad, but now with 20 people to buy for, even if I don't spend much per person, it still is a lot!

The rule I have learned here is GETTING MARRIED IS EXPENSIVE!!!!!
