I do enjoy buying for my family and close friends though and I always buy what I think is needed and will be used rather than spending silly money on stupid things, I also make hampers and little gift baskets some years, not filled with expensive things but decent priced stuff that I know they will use and all of it together in the basket both looks lovely and shows how much thought/time I put into it iykwim.
And I do not believe for one bloody minute that you have ever given the mini LT's just a mars bar for crimbo
