What if all the Christians in the country went just one year where they didn't buy any presents, but went the hand-made route or just got together? In a way we did that this year. Yes some purchases were made (we have an 8 yo, what can I say) but we made those purchases in October. IOW, I won't be involved in all the rush and one upmanship that has become December.

I'm so busy working OT to afford all the Christmas presents that I just don't have the time to make presents!
Oh, wait a minute..../snicker
