For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

    Just don’t gift anything and enjoy a peaceful evening? Why does one need a special day to gift anyway?
    My family did it and it was honestly amazing (obviously kids should get something if possible).

      We haven’t made it that far yet. I imagine/hope we will eventually.

      As I mentioned elsewhere in this thread, in Iceland they buy each other books and on Christmas Eve they open the books and everyone sits around reading them.
