[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I made a donation to a charity and wrote a card this year hoping to get everyone to stop with the presents. I put a line like this in there: “While there isn’t anything physical for you to open, a family in need is receiving a month of formula and diapers. May we all remember the best gifts aren’t beneath the tree”. If they are annoyed there isn’t anything for them to open, that’s on them. [/quote] NP. I’ve tried to sell this several times and now I let it be. My siblings and I don’t exchange anymore but it didn’t put a dent in the madness. For a long time, I tried to convince the relatives to only buy for the little kids since they refused to stop that and instead of buying so much for each adult, adopt one child from Angel Tree. That way they still got to shop and a child in need got presents. They thought it was a terrible idea. [/quote]
