Aye. My parents spend about £20 on each of us at Christmas. Mum might sneak a bit more for me as my sister has children (her share goes on them but Mum inevitably overspends, as I did when I was working) and my bro is better paid than my Mum.
She spends on food, but £740 on presents is far more than she could afford.
