Hmm, we don't go all out for birthdays either. My family usually sends a card & a telephone call. That's it.

Bill's family however thinks that you not only have to send a card and call, but that you MUST buy a present too. They go overboard (I think) with gifts on every occasion.

The most unual gift I've ever gotten....well, I *asked* for a vacuum cleaner for Christmas one year. I asked for a dustbuster for my last birthday, it's something I REALLY wanted, and I use a lot.

I did get a sapphire necklace for our anniversary last year, that was nice. I guess I've never gotten anything really 'out there'.
