I know we usually do a haul thread, but let's talk about the other side of Christmas.
My main hobby is board gaming, and I think that tabletopping helps provide that face to face interaction that has been on the decline since the internet went mainstream. Since people give kind of standard gifts in my family, I'm trying to give the gift of games for the most part. I've gotten everyone on my shopping list mostly "lite" board or card games that A. Match their interests and B. you wouldn't find in a typical store, except for my stepdad and parents-in-law, as they just simply do not/would not game. We got my step dad a gift card for tools etc, my FIL a John Wayne coffee mug, and my MIL some jewelry. Also got my brothers a 40k minis&paint starter kit I caught on tremendous discount. Going to see how they like it.
