Before we had kids we would buy rhem but now I just can't be bothered and neither can he. I'd rather he saved his money instead of buying unnecessary gifts just for the sake of it. Whenever I tell people that we don't get each other anything they always look at us like we're crazy.

Me and my husband are the same. We’d rather spend the money on the kids we buy whatever we want throughout the year as and when so we don’t see the point either.

I wouldn't do this, but we'd spend the money on tickets to a show or a fancy dinner together.

We dont do presents for each other but our birthdays are September and November so we feel like we've only just celebrated :)

We are the exact same. We focus on our son and family, and don’t bother with each other. We do birthdays, but we don’t stretch ourselves financially just for the sake of it.
We get each other random gifts throughout the year, and that works for us!

We did a tiny gift each. We both treat each other to things through the year when we need something

We only do presents for the kids.. I don’t do presents for any adult 😊

Were the very same. We do birthday gifts but not Christmas gifts

I've had the best Christmas this year, the kids got some really lovely gifts from us and the family. We didn't really get many physical gifts at all. I think we got 2 maybe 3 each from other people and one each from the kids. I'm actually a bit relieved because I really didn't need or want anything anyway. I'd rather focus on the kids.

We go very mi small, chocolates we like, i got him some thrifty shirts and ties and our favourite shower gel in bulk which we would have probabaly bought anyways but I wrapped it up haha. So kinda? Nothing mad. He'll get me some candles for the house.

We wasn’t feeling it this year after loosing my dad so we just did one present each and honestly I’m good with that we focused on our girls this year.

We do gifts as it is a good way of making sure that we look after each as husband and wife, not just mum and dad

We still do gifts. From each other and from the kids.

We went halves on a new fridge and filled each other's stockings.
