We were on a pretty tight budget growing up. I got $100 for clothes at back to school and whatever I was gifted for Christmas and my Birthday. So new clothes were a big deal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-ask-for-as-a-child-for-christmas#post-2667964 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 10:53:58 +0000 808love 2667964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember getting a kid's piano at five. I don't remember asking for anything. My parents never asked me and when my aunt asked I was surprised. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-ask-for-as-a-child-for-christmas#post-2667963 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 10:53:34 +0000 Mamaof2 2667963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cabbage Patch Kid and my pink huffy bike! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-ask-for-as-a-child-for-christmas#post-2667959 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 10:51:57 +0000 youboots 2667959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What is the 'biggest' gift you remember getting?
