What does $50 buy you at christmas?
For me, it buys $50 of something nice to try, the potential of a good experience. But (in one of those moments when you realise the rest of the world doesn't automatically work like yourself) I figure other people spend $50 on other things.
So, a list of my guesses about what people buy when they spend $50 at christmas:
* a $50 "I love you" voucher (it's the thought that counts)
* $50 worth of luxury (French champagne anyone?)
* $50 worth of "I'm doing better than you" (cause I can afford/orgnanise this)
* $50 of nostalgia (I remember when we used to eat this in the old country)
* extra heaven points (just give that $50 to jesus)
* $50 of less work (I hired students to come and clean up the whole garden)
