Re: A personal question about spending money/buying gifts at the holidays?

more on my parents. they spend a lot each year on visiting and funding my trips up there.

i think DH grabbed one of our christmas cards and stuck a few passes to his restaurant in there and sent it to his mother.

I would never send a cent to my inlaws.

Re: A personal question about spending money/buying gifts at the holidays?

We spend equally on our parents. This year we are spending a little more on our ILs but thats because that is how it worked out. We got my parents an IMac with my siblings and got my ILs a trip to Maine in the spring. We decided to go big this year because both of our parents watch our DD during the week.
