Left to my own devices, I would never leave the house. So I ask for experiences. From my wife, I ask for her to find a local event that I wouldn't think of going to by myself, and to arrange tickets/reservations/etc. From my parents (who live nearby), I ask for them to watch our kids while my wife and I go to said event. It works well.

I really like this idea. I, too, hate getting gifts. I already buy the things I need and gifts just end up getting stacked in the corner.

I ask for nothing and I get experiences. She loves to plan, book, etc., while I usually find those events worthwhile only after the fact. Win-win, in the end.

What about those other people? I forget what they are called. Frems? Fronds?
