Nothing. We keep what little money the entire family have to give to the little kids so that they can live in the Christmas spirit. If we didn't want that, we wouldn't spend our money for that either, because we actually need it.
This year, I got a healthy dose of humility and gratitude for what I have, I can't complain. There were many years I could before, so I know. This year I focused on giving where I could, when I could.
Missus got me a Wolverine costume. Complete with claws, fake muscles etc...
After pointing out to her that she routinely makes remarks about my lack of maturity at 28 years of age, I had to point out that this gift was not helping me make any reforms.
It then took me 30 seconds to become the man who is the best at what he does, and what he does...

+1, though the system won't let me award it for some reason.
On that note, while lots of you have gotten some quite spectacular pressents, how about sharing what you have gifted others? =)
