Shoppers are expected to spend a wallet thumping £378 on average, over a fifth more than last Christmas.
What are you going to be buying? By the way, one of our neighbours has put their Christmas lights and tree up already. Beat that!

£378? Is that on the WHOLE of Christmas, or just presents? Frankly, I'm not surprised, when you consider the cost of technology that will be on some 'Christmas wants lists' (eg, Sat Navs, xbox360s). Even a couple of xbox360 games comes to nearly £100.
So far I've spent just a little over £200 on presents - so that figure looks (sadly) realistic.

This will probably be my cheapest in years, as I now am single!

I haven't spent anything yet and haven't even thought about it.

I will probably spend about £25 per person, so I can get away with about £150
