... what?

I don't understand what you are confused about?
I am giving them $125 to be used to purchase a hotel room as an overnight vacation.

I've always wanted someone to do that to me.

LOL!
It is hilarious to do that!
My brother is OCD and I did that to him 2 years ago when I gave him a thing of Tic Tacs. He was soooooooo mad. My dad and I laughed until we cried. My mom cast her evil stare of shame, which in turn made us laugh harder.

Newspaper + duct tape = classy as **** wrapping paper

I still wrap. For Christmas, I'm thinking of buying a poster for someone, getting a HUGE box, unroll the poster and tape it inside, then fill the box with little pieces of garbage from around the house.

If they try to shake it, it'll clunk and I'll scream NO ITS FRAGILE!

My parents are technology-retarded.
My dad tried to block porn sites on our computer just in case. But he though you actually had to go to the porn site and block it from there. Long story short, my dad was downstairs looking all over a porn site and my mom was yelling when I got home. It was an interesting day.

Fixed and sigged. XD

This year was actually the first year I wrapped my own presents. Not saying I didn't get them wrapped before but others did it. I always prefer wrapping to gift bags.

This year Krissy just wanted stuff to open. So I did things like buy a DVD box-set and individually wrapped each DVD, and then the box. I did this with all her presents I got and put them all in a big gift bag. Totals like 30+ things for her to open. Was fun as I had to keep trying to find different ways to wrap the same thing (like for the DVDs).

I put my friend Kara's KH Re: CoM in a gift thing that had green tissue paper and a card that said.

"Looks like the furry did something right. ~Love, Tyler"

I don't give my presents in gift bags. So you could say I wrap them, but I actually ring a company who you can pay to wrap your items. I'm no good at wrapping so it helps alot.

Who says you have to be good at wrapping? I did mine this year and my sister laughed at how bad they were when she was up at the house, so I wrapped her present up especially bad (ripped paper and stuck it back on, excessive sticky-tape, etc.) then put on a tag and said "wrapped especially well for you <3"

WOW. That would be entertaining to walk in and see.

I would be excessively angered at the fact that I had a box within a box. :/

I would be like YAY A BOX THANKS MUM! Then I'd throw it at my niece and hope she would cry while saying "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" Two birds with one stone.

wrap makes things seem more personal

Re: How many of you still wrap gifts?

My cousin-in-law used to have an informal contest with his buddies to see who could wrap up presents in such a way that opening them was as inconvenient as possible. It ended this year when one of them included a steel pipe that was welded shut and some other goodies (don't remember the full details), but when everything was said and done, the prize inside was a note that said where the real gift was located, which in this case was under a porch that until recently did not have a fence around it.

However, due to bad timing, things are such that the present is still sitting there and there's a fence around it. Tearing it down would be destruction of property, naturally, so the contest has since been canceled.

Still, it was funny as hell to listen to some of the things they came up with. And the prize inside was almost always a gift card or something worth less than what they probably spent to wrap it.
