No. I do money or vouchers for the nephews now they’re older. Everything they want is so expensive so it’s easier as they can put it altogether. I never give mine money for Xmas but others do and they prefer it.

Commercialism is killing the true spirit of Christmas

It’s an easy way out but it’s still appreciated.

I have been able to buy some of my more expensive handbags and other things with money I receive because I can put it all together and buy something I actually want as opposed to just several small gifts (which a lot of the times I don’t know what to do with). Not saying the gifts are not appreciated, they are, but equally cash gifts are also appreciated

The right place

Sending money is better than buying stuff that people don’t actually want.

It really depends. I'd certainly much rather have money or a voucher than an inappropriate gift, and I'd rather give the same.

Some of my best gifts have been "here's £x towards (thing I've heard you say you like but it's outside my budget/ you're better off choosing style and size)". The thought is no less.

I gift my niece and nephew an Amazon voucher that is emailed to them on Christmas morning.

They much prefer if and can get things they really want.

Much more useful than Jaffa cakes and clothes bought by an out of date uncle..!

I'd rather have money, I've been saving birthday and Xmas money for 3 years now coz there wasn't anything I really wanted and now I'm spending it on a holiday to Lanzarote in Feb for 2 family birthdays. To me that's better than a dove gift set or a massive bar of chocolate.

Once I got to be a teenager my parents gave me cash. I was happy because I wanted clothes usually and I dread to think what they would have chosen

Id rather give my Eldest kids money, especially as they're now home owners, so they can buy something or put it towards stuff they really need.

It's not lazy, it's practical.

They still get little gifts to open too.

I think the word lazy is applied too easily. A neighbour once called me "a lazy cow" because I had my shopping delivered. At the time I worked, ran a home, brought up two children and helped out with my parents, all with equal input from Mr N of course.

It depends on the person you’re giving money to I guess

I would, but I’d certainly include a message in the card it was in so they know it wasn’t just a lazy alternative
