Holiday Stress

I am very stressed right now. Is anyone else?
The gifts to buy. Chocolate everywhere.

There was just a holiday party in my office. My Secret Santa gift ($15 - $25) was a magazine subscription to Time Out New York. It was within the range since it was buy one get one free - a win for everyone.

Well, my giftee is from out of town, so I let her pick another magazine of her choice. She picked one that is 3 times as much. I think I should just order it since I am too embarrassed to say "No, sorry. It's not within the range."

Generousity will come back to me, right? I guess if I am expecting good things in the future, it's not really generous.
