This year instead of buying little token presents for the people at work etc we have all put together and made a donation to Oxfam so the money can be put to more use.

27 November, 2005 at 4:25 pm #172284Instead of buying Christmas presents one year I gave all the money i would have spent to Childline, none of the family minded and i told them all to give whatever they would have spent on me to a charity of their chose :D
27 November, 2005 at 4:29 pm #172285We dont give cards at work any more we put the money to cancer charaties saves on the boring wrighting them out as well i think its a good idear

2 December, 2005 at 12:06 am #172288We tend not to send xmas cards at work .. and donate to charity.
This year we have already done a few charity fundraisers. and at xmas we only buy one present for one person.
Stick names in a ‘at and buy for one person…..secret santa time…. saves a load of hassle.
Just wish I could do that with me family pmsl…. :wink:
