Nothing here as well. Officially using the credit crunch as an excuse not to have people buy me rubbish presents, im also buying far fewer than usual and at much lower value.
Got Freddie Flintoff to sign a cricket ball for my uncle, loads of other people getting prints of the wedding photos etc.
Hopefully Ill be getting an awesome family Xmas with glorious food and wine.

Im just expecting a bit of money, I dont want anything off anyone really so Ive been pretty specific about that. im buying bugger all this year as I have no money thanks to about £600 of fraud on my account. Merry Christmas indeed!

Wow, an epic Bah humbug seems to be in order atm!
Ive actually spent more this year than normal, though I think this is due to having been employed longer etc. Ive spent so much the credit card company has upped my credit limit it seems :|

Well last year I probably went way OTT, so I guess this balances it out.
Just the food, drink and watching TV for a week will do me nicely

Money from the parental family, couple of games, Blu-rays etc from the living with family. Specifically asked for no "novelty" items since they just lie around and get in the way but you cant throw them out.
Spent more this year, got parents digital photo frames to be loaded up with pics of the kids. Daughter is getting her own DSi too.

Me and the missus went to Ikea yesterday and bought some furniture which were counting as our presents to each other. Really chuffed with what we go too!

No big presents just small bits and pieces this year, like clothes, smellies and some DVDs.
