This is going to be kinda boring, though this is the first Christmas where I actually BOUGHT presents at all so there's that: I bought my mother a clapper to save her the hassle of getting up to turn of her lights at night, and I bought my dad a universal remote to replace the four different remotes for the living room that he keeps getting mixed up.

I don't usually give gifts, though this year I did give my best friend a copy of Final Fantasy 7. He had never played it before, but thought it looked cool, so I decided to get him a copy.

Nothing interesting, I just bought my family member what they would like. I bought my brother a book about how to survive a zombie apocalypse, and my mother a new block calender of her favourite comic artist.

I can't really remember? I only buy presents for my mother, grandparents, one uncle and my mother's best friend. Well, by "buy presents" I mean "Give money to mother's best friend because she knows what to buy" apparently I bought a new tablet cover for my mother this year and that's all I can remember. I hand buy all their cards though!

Me and my friends have a thing where we don't buy each other anything for anything for convenience.

a diamond necklace and earrings.
I couldn't afford much this year.
For yourself you mean, of course?

I'm gonna be the Scrooge and say nothing. I can't afford to get presents for anyone and live a week essentially.
You aren't the only one, brudda. I only managed to make enough to get my hetero-lifemate the Jayne Cobb knit hat he's been wanting forever. Beyond that, nobody got nothing. The joys of living at the bottom of the totem pole.

I bought perfume for my mom (Lady Gaga Fame), gave my sister memory foam slippers that were originally meant to be a present for me from my mom, and my niece a few dolls.

captcha: beans and rice. Precisely what I had for Christmas dinner.

I gave Two Netflix subscriptions of a year, a $100 Visa gift card, and a box (6 bottles) of locally produced wine. I tend to do this every year as it's super simple and goes over quite well.

I sent 60 dollars to my best friend in Texas. She's a single mother and needs all the help she can get right now.

Also, I paid for my friend's Magfest ticket. It's a combination Birthday/Xmas gift. Also he'll be shipping out a week after Magfest so I figured he deserved to Nerd-Out before then.

I got my Older bro the complete Chobits collection. It was the first anime we watched together. I also got him those League of Legends posters from Jinx.com
When my younger brother got a 2ds, I gave him my old Black 2, before the pokemon bank came up. There were pokemon from my ruby save all gone now TT-TT

lessee... I bought my younger sister an Ipad case, and while carting around my family I treated everyone to Monsters/the energy drink of their choice. I think overall, I was pretty generous, I think

I got my boyfriend two shirts from the youtuber Markiplier (we both adore him) and I bought us Borderlands 2 GOTY to play through together. We just got to torgue playing a Mecromancer and the Psycho.
My mom I got a Eagles women's shirt seeing as she adores the football team
My dad I actually got a newton's cradle. He likes to make noises with random objects and he's always found them fascinating, so I decided it would be a good gift.
And for my friends, I gave them all comics. I got them addicted, so it helped.

Nephews got the first books in the Redwall series and copies of random Calvin and Hobbes anthologies (they're 9 and 7) along with 75 dollar gift cards to gamestop. Best friend got a book by Jeremy Clarkson (of Top Gear) and a handful of co-op games on Steam. Fiance, who often expresses interests in gaming but isn't particularly good at it, got a 3DSXL with Mario and Luigi Dream Team and the latest Zelda.
