Instead of every person in the extended family buying a present for every person 
in the extended family, which is like, totally crap, this year we played The 
Present Game.

The game works by each participant buying some random gift, to the tune of a 
budget (ours was $20 AUD), and they are wrapped and all put in a pile.

Every participants name is put in a bowl and someone draws and names the person 
drawn. That person goes and picks a present, unwraps it in front of everyone 
and shows them what it is.
