We decided that with my family all spread out this year, we would do a secret santa system instead of everyone buying everyone gifts. I had my mom's fiance; I bought him a sirius satellite radio system because nascar is no longer on xm, and he would never survive without hearing the race at work. And of course because I love everyone too much to give them nothing, I got them all see's candies from california (try them, they're the best), dvds, panties for my sister (it's tradition), blah blah blah. I got some little things from my mom, books, journals, etc, and my secret santa, my little brother, gave me a heavy ass box, which turned out to be filled with sand...and 200 bucks. Not bad shopping for a 15 year old.
The secret santa thing worked out great -- we all got what we wanted instead of a bunch of junk that we didn't...my sister and my sister in law both got new digital cameras, my brother got an xbox 360, etc.
