Who all did you buy for this year? DH, DD, DS, and MIL.
Did you cut back on the number of people you buy for? Definitely.
Did you cut back on the amount you spent on people? Absolutely. With the economy the way it is it's just too risky to spend a lot right now.

Who all did you buy for this year?
The kids and each other, DH's parents, his siblings and his brothers wife. Nieces and nephews. DH's Grandparents. 2 of his cousins (my kids drew their names for our gift exchange) and then gifts for the gift exchange at our church.

Did you cut back on the number of people you buy for?
Nope. We actually were able to buy for more than we ever had before.

Did you cut back on the amount you spent on people?
Nope, we spent more because we usually didn't buy for everyone.
