An excuse to go to kids films at the cinema (I drag my friends kids off to all the animation ones, they hate it)\n\nAn excuse for a Macdonalds\n\nYou can 'time them' to do various chores and they think it's a game! ("I'll time you to get my slippers for me")\n\nMaking Christmas quite cool. "I put all the lights up 'for the kids'."\n\nBorrowing their skateboards and micro-scooters. (to go to the shop)\n\nGetting more pets ("but it's good for the children to grow up with animals")

Dollar store was a good point they have mugs with candy in them.. 1 dollar each for every memeber spending about under 20 bucks?\nI am sure your family would understand times are tough...\nAnother idea if your good at baking...make some brownies or cookies. Buy some christmas decorated tins again at the dollar store and some of that party tissue paper to make it look a little fancy when they open it. \nCan't go wrong with sweets for the sweet tooth.

I think this banning culture of the UK has got the worst of you! Come on! Let others enjoy things, I'm sure they want to ban things that you enjoy. Let's not be so bad to each other trying to kill the joy in something people like to do. Let's ban the banning culture! Have a good Xmas by treating yourself to a holiday in a country where Xmas is not celebrated!!! You could do with a week somewhere nice and warm.

Every year on christmas eve "the birds" (santas) leave new pyjamas on our beds to let us know Santa has left the north pole. Since I moved out 2 years ago mum arranged for my fiancee to leave new pjs on my bed for me, I think its a really lovely tradition that i'll carry on when I have children of my own.\nMy dad used to wrap up useless presents to give to all the adults, like used spark plugs etc, all the kids thought it was hilarious, even more so because it infuruated mum.\n\nI really like suprise presents, santa would hide a few "extra" presents around the house with our names on them... usually something we really wanted, and a few unexpected things.

surprises... i always wait until Christmas morning while my brother opens them right away and has nothing to unwrap on Christmas... but i guess there's always that disappointment when you realize someone doesn't know you well enough to get you something you would actually like and would use.  still, surprises are the best.

Since I was a kid, we always did the same thing.  About a week before Christmas, we'd make a thermos of hot chocolate, load everyone up in the car, put on some Christmas tunes and go look at all the Christmas lights.  Sometimes we'd assign each family member an item (snowmen, santas, nativities) and see how many we could count.  This is a tradition I've carried on with my own kids, and they look forward to it every year!

Wrap up several different presents in different shapes and sizes. \n\nHave everyone sit down.\n\nHave someone hide all the presents.\n\nAs soon as they find theirs, they stop.

Xmas becoming a materialistic holiday.\nIf you're poor or broke, best is show her how much you love her. Not necessary has to give something physical. \n\nBeside, Xmas is created for commercial to generate profit and has nothing to do with Nicholas real intention.

Nothing.  And think what £300 could do for a good charity.  Don't be greedy -think of the needy

People have many different expectations for Christmas and how it is observed.  It is common in many families to concentrate on the kids rather than the adults, but other folks are firmly in the "everybody gets something" camp.  Either way is fine so long as everyone is working from the same understanding.  If the arrangement is that you only buy for kids and someone goes and gets all the adults something as well, that can make the other adults who didn't buy gifts feel bad, which is not what the holidays are supposed to be about.  Conversely, you probably wouldn't feel too good if everyone else bought you something and you arrived with nothing for them.  The key is working out the expectations in advance, rather than operating in the dark.

Ask for something you truly want. Don't ask for a present if it is something frivolous, something you don't want but were told to ask for, something that will just lie around in your house. No one can tell you what you want, you just have to know yourself.

Personally, I don't buy for all of my family/friends.Most of the family still give gifts to me as they please, for which I am very, very thankful for and I let them know this. But, I've made it clear a long time ago that I am NOT going to feel obligated to purchase/give gifts - it defeats the purpose of gift giving!!!  \nJust mention politely before the holiday that you won't be giving this year, and "please do not feel obligated to give to me", something like that.\nIf they get snippy that is their issue! You can't be blamed that people have come to be selfish. Some people would rather get something from you knowing you didn't care, than to wait for a heart-felt present. That's their problem!
