Well, I didn't, but only because my wife and I agreed not to, and we stopped exchanging gifts with our relatives -- none of us have any kids, everybody's in their 50s, and if we really want something, we buy it for ourselves. Of course my wife's bday is the day after Christmas, and for _that_ she got a gift.
I guess the question I have to ask is, do _you_ give any of those folks anything for Christmas? Birthday? Cards of any kind? If so, it's unforgivable what they did, and you should extract a little guilt straight outa their veins. But if not... well, it's gonna happen. If you don't maintain ties with relatives, they'll most of them stop trying to do it with you...
