Just a bunch of dark chocolate which he likes and some little fun stuff. And made his favorite dish for Xmas dinner. Not too expensive! We got an amazing gift basket from my boss though which had all these fancy jams in it so that was totally sweet.

One of the biggest money savers was on wrapping and such. All distributed baked goods were given in cookie tins my folks had saved for years and had no idea what to do with. We cleaned them really good, lined them with some Christmas red wax paper, and put the cookies in holiday themed cupcake trays found at Family Dollar. As for wrapping, we just wrapped everything in newspaper (New York Times, to be exact) and used leftover ribbon from the wrapping center at the mall. They were going to throw it away because they didn't know what to do with it. As for calories? I'll let you know when I am done consuming!
