This seems to be especially true when doing the whole "drawing names" thing.
Really? LOL

Agreed. My siblings and I draw names every year, and no one ever complains about what they do or don't get. We set a $30 limit, but if you want to spend more, you are certainly allowed. No one whined when I decided to get my brother a $70 Browns shirt a few years ago.

I love both Thanksgiving and Christmas. No politics at either, but things do get heated during the annual men v. women "Win, Lose or Draw" game that we play on Christmas night. The men are lying assholes, FYI.

No clue, they've sold 10,000 of them since I got in on it though.

At $1 per gift, including shipping costs, I'm sure its well worth it.

It's probably 1 new card for your deck, per day. Or however many they can ship with a single stamp.

True, although they've done less than profitable things before. Like allowing people to pay $0 for their holiday expansion. I'm sure it works out in the end though.
