Well it was only the wife who wanted it around a holiday but she had a list:

1. Christmas
2. Easter
3. Valentine's Day

I just walked away when she said that, then she finds me later and says "sorry if I know how to handle my money"- this from the woman who DOESN'T WORK. My friend had a good paying job and the wife stayed home all day- if she was the one who had to work or put in overtime to buy the gifts she might have an argument but some people lol
