Christmas Gifts

Do you enjoy giving gifts to loved ones or gf/bf or receiving them more? I love giving gifts but would be lying if I said I don't enjoy receiving gifts as well. What will you be asking for this year? Any big surprises you have planned for others?

Big fan of gift giving. I genuinely put a lot of thought into it every year. 

I care less about getting gifts - mostly because if I want something, I just go ahead and buy it. 

Still, Christmas is awesome and I'm excited for it all.

Agreed! It is always fun to get others gifts and see them light up. I am still in college, but work a ton over the break and am able to get my family/gf nicer gifts every year and it is totally worth it.

 

I would like to give some nice gifts, but don’t have any money. I do like receiving gifts though, for the most part all I get is money and then just buy whatever I want. My family isn’t really into the whole holiday cheer and Christmas spirit thing.

 

Subbing because I'm a terrible gift giver and need to get ideas, feeling generous this year
