My dad's getting a phone call. I stopped buying him things years ago, because there's really nothing he needs/wants at this point that he doesn't already have, and he's told us as much. I'm the same way; anything I want, I go buy. But my kids usually get me something small, and I act excited about it because they're young and it makes them feel special. The smiles on their faces when I act excited about whatever they've given me is my real gift, though.
