Buy people things that show you have put a bit of thought in ... anyone that get's pissed off that you haven't spent enough is missing the point.
A few (ok ... maybe a few more than a few) beers and some good food with friends and family that you wouldn't normally see and that's a good job well done
Since my son is now two-and-a-half, and gets great pleasure from helping to make things, we've gone for the home-made option this year. Home-made chutney (picked by son, stirred by son, etc.), home-made fudge (more help), home-made sweets (more help), home-made christmas cards (mostly him, with help).
The family will think this is fabulous (and since the must-invite-from-my-family list at my wedding came to over 120 people, I have a lot of family to keep happy), and he will get spoiled rotten in turn for being such a clever boy.
And, in the current climate, it is admirably parsimonious!
