If you’re tired of the commercial ties that have been bound to the holiday season, perhaps it’s time you make use of a new site out there called “No Christmas Gifts This Year”.  It’s a quick and easy site that gives you the ability to send a e-card to a friend or relative stating your wish to spend time with that person rather than buying each other gifts.

It’s been a while since Christmas was a traditionally no-gifts holiday, but from a personal finance perspective, I can’t help but think it’s time we all got a little closer to that.  After all, it’s not about the gifts but about the people that we spend the holidays with.
