[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of these gifts seem really low priced. Don’t most people spend $100-200 on parents? We spend more on parents than our kids. Last year was an iPad and airpods to both families. I can’t imagine my moms face if she opened a lottery ticket. [/quote] I'm the PP who said my DH got his dad, dad's wife, and brother lotto scratchers. It wouldn't go over great in my family either because we're big gift givers, but before last year he hadn't given any of them Christmas presents since high school. It's just not a thing in his family. The tricky thing is now my mom lives here, and we do presents, and I don't want to upset their traditions but I don't want it to look like "here's your $20 present we got at the gas station on the way here" to FIL and then "here's your thoughtful $100 present I ordered in October" to my mom. And it might end up like that, because we buy for our own families.[/quote]
