40 years ago or so, my dad was in charge of the equipment department for a 
huge construction company. At Christmas time, he would get gifts from the 
vendors, ranging from pen and pencil sets to TV's. After we had 3 TV's, my 
dad started donating the good stuff to charity.

He finally told the vendors that he had 4 growing sons, and if they wanted 
to send a gift, send food. The next year the deliverymen started showing 
up with boxes of steaks, Harry & David fruit baskets, etc. The most 
interesting gifts were the boxes of lobster and shrimp frozen in blocks of 
ice. My mom had to make a fast trip to Sears to buy a freezer for all that 
stuff. Of course, us young 'uns were not complaining one bit.
