It worked real well for our family and I am tired of all this one upmanship crap on "gotta have the newest gift" every Christmas.

My mother is out of control in regards to X-mas. She is retired and lives to bargain shop year-round. My wife is to the point that other than me buying each daughter a couple of cool gifts (camera, skiis etc), she just gets them some new socks or something. X-mas day at my parents takes all day to open gifts

My kids actually get tired of it half way thru
Here is a pic from a past x-mas at my parents.
This year will be worse as my brother got married and my sister and her husband have a baby boy. Two more "towers" of gifts to go thru
