I never told my kids about Santa because we were usually broke, and I didn’t want them to think that “santa” gave them crap gifts, while their friends were getting iPads and other expensive gifts. Instead when we got our taxes we would take them shopping.

After my brother died and I started claiming his kids as dependents, we just use the tax money to buy Christmas presents.

If the money's being spent anyway might as well save it until Christmas when we can get the best deals.

As someone who isn't going to just immediately tell my kids santa isn't real.... that tax money pays my bills back to current most years.
