This is such a great idea. Hubby and I only bought each other stocking stuffers this year because of a tight budget, and I really didn't miss the actual gifts. I'd much rather take a trip in the future instead of buying each other stuff.
We got money from my mother in law and my dad. MIL's money helped pay for hubby's snazzy new glasses, and my dad's money will be going towards any car repairs needed to pass our safety inspection next month. Should the car pass without any issues, we want a new bedspread. My sister burned me some CDs and bought us both booze, and her hubby (they are separated) bought us a pretty vase. All in all, our Christmas was full of less stuff than in years past, but I don't mind. In fact, it was rather refreshing.
