At the other end of the spectrum: My wife and I made a minimal gifts pact. We each got each other minor crap we needed for around the house. It was perfect. No waste. No extravagance. Just stuff we were going to get anyway.
We always get stuff for the kids and the nieces/nephews, and our moms. But we haven't gotten a gift for each other in years now. We both buy something if we want it bad enough throughout the year, and it's both of our money anyway, so what's the point? We will some years get a "household gift" that's something we need or everyone can benefit from, that shouldn't go to just one kid or "you two share this and try not to fight over it, or that they will care less about. Nice air fryer one year, Nintendo switch another, etc. But nothing really needed or wanted this year so we'll probably just take a pass.
Well it's January now...so yeah I guess you did.
True, but for our family Xmas isn't totally over yet.
