[quote=Anonymous]OP, I get it. I am right there with you. And I am sorry to say you are unlikely to win this battle. The funny thing is, my ILs buy so much cr@p that my kids get overwhelmed and can't even really appreciate any of it. Their favorite gift invariably comes from my SIL who is on a limited budget and buys them one thoughtfully chosen but very modest gift apiece. So MIL has never had the experience she so clearly craves, of buying the memorable IT gift they talk about for years. 99/100 that gift has been from SIL. As others have said, paste a smile on your face (Baileys in the coffee helps) let them open the avalanche of gifts and then quietly give them away later. It is wasteful and a major PIA for you, but that is where this is going.[/quote]
