Jayashiangel Report post Posted December 9, 2016 (edited) This year the holiday gifts are budgeted at under $10 for each person due to everyone having a very tight year....Whipped up water bottle cozies for my sister-in law & my nieces gifts. Price for yarn was $1.50 each-have leftover yarn Case of water for house/gifting $2.50/ 24 bottles= 10 cents per bottle lol Cost of hats yarn was $2.50 each-have leftover yarn So total is less then $10.50 for 2 So I have $9.50 to use toward extra stuff....Treats/Gift bags Edited December 9, 2016 by Jayashiangel 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
