    Good article. Makes you think and that's always good. I would love it if my whole family would go to handmade gifts only. All of that stuff at the stores is nice but not mandatory to live.

    Our family has done the $100 Christmas for a few years now. Even our 8 year old will tell you Christmas is more about family coming to visit than it is about presents. The more guests we have, the happier she is.
