Nothing yet as all of mine are at my sisters house and we are not due to go there until 1 pm! We had a present swap party at my house last weekend so those not joining us on Christmas Day this year ( my children alternate with their in-laws) can collect their gifts. I expect we will talk on the phone later.

PrincessPeache · 25/12/2024 11:18

My parents got me lovely fluffy pyjamas, toiletries, a gorgeous mug and my favourite Fortnum & Mason hot chocolate. A friend got me chocolates and a reading journal.

Me and DP weren’t doing gifts this year but he’s bought me a vintage Wuthering Heights hardback and written a lovely note inside it. I got him a headshaver 😬😂

Nothing - the kids didn’t get me anything, and dh didn’t get me anything. We didn’t have an agreement to not get gifts. He just didn’t bother. I’m not sure why the kids didn’t, dd did her shopping the other day but couldn’t get me anything as I was with her.

dh didn’t get me anything for my bday either so not a huge surprise really. He actually forgot my bday.

Gold sleeper earrings
Next candle
Digital photo frame
Chilly water bottle
Lady Million perfume
Aspinal diary. I’m very lucky x

A beautiful eternity ring - after my last one had to come off (stupid fat fingers 🤣).

I am a V lucky girl ✨

I’m so sorry. We are in a similar position and so I know how much it sucks. I just want to cry but that will only make me feel shitter.

I hope you have a bit of spare cash to buy something you want in January or a thoughtful little surprise gift from family or friend. 💐💝

A massive blanket of my favourite game map.
A new tote bag for shopping (I'm not as old as I sound 😂, but I'm sick of buying plastic bags that rip)
A calm over chaos colouring book
A lovely tin of smellies
Lindt chocolate off the animals.
My hefty car repair bill paid 😬

hobblingAlong · 25/12/2024 12:06

Nothing but we both buy what we want when we want it and after wasting so much money in the past in trying to buy each other gifts we agreed to stop it and just enjoy the Christmas experience.

Nobbynobbsknob · 25/12/2024 12:06

Something from my best friend which is making me laugh so much I've ordered the kids to remove it from the room - I've got a possible broken rib and it hurts every time I look at it.
Can't even write it here because I'll laugh 😂

Pyjamatimenow · 25/12/2024 12:09

Lisa Eldridge eyeliner I asked for, a snooze band deluxe, a new dress and a hoodie I’ve been wanting. We also had a night a away recently so that was kind of an early Christmas gift

Missoma earrings
Tickets to cabaret
3 big white company candles

Nothing. 🤷🏻‍♀️

TooManyCupsAndMugs · 25/12/2024 12:24

Books (1 that I wanted and 1 I have already, to be exchanged), lovely perfume, smellies and a voucher for a shop i don't really go in, but I'll be able to buy shoes or a bag in. Very happy with my gifts 🎁

QuizzlyBears · 25/12/2024 12:27

I had 2 cards to open, both with some money. I’ll use it to purchase myself a couple of nice things I would have liked to open today!

SavageGarden23 · 25/12/2024 12:36

My partner gave me st eval candle and a lovely coat few weeks before xmas so that i can use them over the festive period. Today he gave me some shopping voucher and a perfume. The best gift he has given me is that he has started going to therapy. I gave myself a hot diamonds ring, friends gave me candles and champagne.

Glitterybee · 25/12/2024 12:38

I honestly don’t expect anything from anyone. I’m a single parent and throughout the years I’ve always bought myself a little something… my family are so good to my kids, I don’t expect them to get me.
But I feel like I’ve been spoilt this year, I got:

£100 cash
lancome la vie est belle perfume
skincare
earrings
chocolate

evilharpy · 25/12/2024 12:45

Beautiful tarot card set that I really wanted (I collect them)
Turkish delight in a wooden box, my favourite sweets
Very cool essential oil diffuser
Peanuts xmas tea towels, I love Peanuts
Slippers and smellies that I had picked
Home made voucher for a shopping trip to buy new records
Baylis & Harding set , bless😂

Ihopeithinkiknow · 25/12/2024 12:52

My daughter got me loads of Oasis (the band) stuff and honestly I was squealing like a 14 year old again haha I got her a load of Billie Eilish merch but she is actually 14 so the squealing in excitement from her was expected lol
