Just for fun!
Just stuff that you buy as a “gift”, for yourself, or for your horse. During November & December. You don’t have to wrap it to qualify it.
Will you spend more on your horse, or on yourself?
Counts all things used on or with a horse, even if it might be more for you than the horse. Like, your horse doesn’t care if she gets the new blingy sparkly halter, it’s you that wants to see it on her, but it counts anyway as “spent on horse”.
Riding clothing and barn wear – not sure which that should count toward. If you didn’t have a horse, you wouldn’t wear it, so … ???
Just having an image of a horse on a thing isn’t enough to count as “spent on horse”. Bracelets, imprinted wallets and purses, that kind of thing - that’s “spent on yourself”.
“Spent on yourself” of course includes all the other “gift” stuff you buy for yourself that has nothing to do with horses. I don’t know what kind of thing would have “nothing to do with horses”, but I’m sure it exists. A bread-maker, maybe, or a couch pillow that isn’t for the couch in the tack room.
In this household, the horse is way out in front. This happens every year for some reason.
