We *thought* we'd have the same list that we've always had, but then, after much persuasion from my mom, we've all cut our lists. (My dad lost his job and my sister/BIL are in a terrible financial ordeal due to a gambling issue with BIL).

So, for the adults on my side we're doing a white elephant. It can either be something from home or a max $5.00 item. Should be interesting! My niece and nephew will still remain the same for us, as will my grandpa.

On DH's side, we're going to get a combined gift for his grandparents (usually buy each something, but at 100 and 95, they don't need much, per MIL) and then we'll buy for DH's parents as normal. What we are cutting out is the nieces and nephews. As DH said, his siblings really don't know our boys and we honestly don't really know their kids. So, we'll make a donation with all the nieces and nephews name on it to our local Veterans Memorial Fund.

Our boys and the gifts DH and I buy for each other will remain the same.
