I like a mix of gifts on Christmas of things that I need that I would probably buy later, and of stuff that I want. I usually don't feel cheated when someone gives me something I need because thats less money that I have to spend on the things that I need, and that money can be allocated for something else.
For example, this year, I received a 2 suites for work. I had already planned on buying these suites, but now that money is free, so I'll probably pick up some stuff at best buy later.
However, I understand that nothing beats a gift that completely surprises you. One that is something that you would never have bought on your own. Or a gift that is more money than you would typically spend on yourself, like getting the upgraded version when you would have settled for the base option. The suites I received this year were of much better quality than I would have spent on myself which was a nice surprise.
Anyways, I hope everyone is having/had a happy holidays!
