What will you spend on your child’s birthday party?
My daughter went to her friend’s 10th birthday party on Friday night. First of all, all the girls have been picked up in a stretch white limo at their houses (22 girls) :scared: , then they all went for a ride in the limo through the city. After that the limo dropped them off at the Holiday Inn Hotel where they had supper in the hotel restaurant and stayed over in the hotel…all the 22 girls. Saturday morning they all have a huge Brunch at the hotel. When the girls were ready to been picked up, the birthday girl gave them each a loot bag present from Claire’s, in the bag were lots of nice girlie stuff, value at $35 (the items still have prices on, I hope it was accidentally left on…..)that's $770 on the loot bag only. :scared:
That party must have cost a fortune for the parents; my daughter’s 10th party was pizza & movie at our house for the night.

The pizza and a movie sounds much more reasonable to me.

My god - the extent parents will go to to please their kids.
First $600.00 for rolling stones tickets and now this. :scared: We must be incredibly cheap buggers let me tell you.
Pizza and a movie sound perfects to me. Very much the same for my kids. My kids are 3 and 5 and both birthdays are in February. They love to skate and swim so we will either take a manageable group to either of these activities, then back to the house for a barbeque, pizza, movie or whatever. Later its down to the beach to work off some of the sugar....I would never spend that kind of money - if my kids want a bloody limo, they can pay for it themselves!
