nbblood 0 #28 December 14, 2011 I think your poll choices are spot on. As for me, yes, I exchange expensive gifts and simple things in combination, in hopes to be able to exchange penis and boobies later!

regulator 0 #29 December 14, 2011 Quote Normiss and I have quite a few presents for each other under the tree, but they're not all expensive ones (at least the ones that I bought aren't! ) I LOVE buying presents and trying to pick out the perfect thing for someone. I've been keeping notes on things he's said he wants for months. So, I don't do it out of obligation, I just do it because I like to. We cook nice meals on most nights, so giving something like that wouldn't be any big deal. ---------------------------------------------------------- So this means he's getting that blow-up doll after all?

Jockeyshifter63 0 #36 December 14, 2011 My wife and I have only done Christmas stockings for each other for years. Just knick knacks that are fun and simple. Most of the money went to our kids but now they are teens we "adopt" a local serviceman who is deployed and the money is spent sending gift bags to his/her unit. Really has taught the kids about the gift of giving. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #39 December 14, 2011 On the serious side... I voted Yes...expensive. My ex and her entire extended family were all Christmas shopping addicts. By themselves, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that the entire U.S. economy rose and fell as their shopping went. Seriously, it was not unusual for them to spend 2-3 thousand dollars....each. I never had to buy gifts. She took care of all the shopping. I never knew what "I" got for people until they opened the presents. There were a couple of exceptions though. One year I got her a new lawn mower. One year a new washer & dryer. And one year a Caribbean cruise. There was a method to the madness, be assured. She liked to mow, I liked clean clothes and I really, really enjoyed the time off while her and her sisters were cruising. My only let-down was she didn't run off with a cruise director....that was the older sister. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

We're not doing anything out of the ordinary for the 'holiday season'...I'm gonna cook him dinner and he's either giving me a nice massage or taking me out to dinner...we both agreed material things aren't necessary, especially since he's just out of college and I'm getting ready to graduate so $ is tight as it is..

monkycndo 0 #44 December 16, 2011 Don't do xmas. We normally only do gifts for birthdays as that celebrates the person, not some calendar event now changed into a reason to buy shit we don't need. We will be traveling to a DZ to hang with friends and jump. A perfect way to celebrate the winter solstice.50 donations so far. Give it a try.
