Let's be real. Jim and Theresa are in their 40's and they've been living together for over 2 years. They do not need more stuff*.

Here are some ideas of what to do with the money you would have spent on a gift.

1. Donate to a charity

2. Take a class in something you've been wanting to try

3. Have a date night or family fun day

4. Symbolically adopt an animal at a zoo or through a conservation organization

5. Really adopt a pet from your local shelter

6. Spa treatment

7. You know there's something you've been wanting that you haven't bought for practical reasons. Get it.

*If you really must send us something, send a greeting card. Theresa loves a good greeting card.
