im a single mother of 7. i know how hard it is. i work 2 jobs & still have no money left. we do the toys for tots (you get 3 items/child, goodwill, the deadline is mid nov i think) and the elf project (they find a person(s) willing to take you shopping spending $50/child , i found this from a local nonprofit store(not goodwill or salvation army) I do believe it is something that is worldwide but not well known, deadline is dec 1st)

there are several organizations you can go to. contact your local community services to see which ones are in your area. you'll need to do this very soon though as the christmas season is right around the corner. they usually start collecting for gifts around the 2nd week of november.
you'll probably need to have paycheck stubs, proof of bills and statement of balance in your checking account.

Save the money that you spend on chips dip candy snacks and soda's and you will see you have money for presents, it will surprise you. We have a dollar store in Texas it has a lot for really good prices.

for one why are you already worrying about Xmas, its not even Halloween yet? And second Xmas doesnt havent to be about gifts. Create memories that will last, not give toys that by the summer they will be forgotten. Teach your kids that giving doesnt nessicarily have to be done with gifts.
