Giving gifts for new year? Never heard of it. It's not an English or Australasian custom. Never heard of Americans doing that either. Sounds like more consumerist bs to me.

you are meant to exchange things at the bells (when the clock strikes midnight) but they are meant to be more symbolic gifts rather than expensive ones.

In order to ensure good luck for the house, the ?first foot? over the door should be male, dark; and of course everyone ?first footing? should take symbolic gifts such coal, shortbread, salt, black bun and whisky. (Blonds & redheads, and especially females with this hair colouring first-footers were considered ?bad luck?). These gifts meant the household would be safe and warm and have enough food for the year. These days, however, whisky and perhaps shortbread and the famous black bun are the most common gifts first-footers take. Of course most hosts would have plenty of food and drink in to offer to their guests.

Ok...I'll settle for any vintage scotch you want to send....you can keep the Blondes & Redheads....they don't taste as good.....i'm sure.....

I don't know if it helps, but I would be very grateful if my partner would buy me "guitar hero III" for the New Year. However, she feels I already spent way too much time playing silly games and that I shouldn't be encouraged in this childish behavior... sigh...

Good luck finding the right gift and have a fun holiday season!
