One of the greatest pressures is to spend on gifts, especially during the holidays. Whether the celebration is Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, many people find the consumer frenzy exhausting.

My Husband always buys me a real live, living rosebush (with roots attached) so that I can plant it after Christmas. Lets see now-married for 20 yrs-means 20 Christmas=20 rose bushes and all is still alive with beautiful blooms. Needless to say, some of the rose bushes are enormous (even after yearly pruning) To me this is one of the greatest gifts, I get each year and it does not cost a fortune.
