I totally agree, Oak.
A few of my clients have told me that they are toning it down this year. And, when I put in my list for people to receive gifts from various benefactors, I only had 6.... 4 of my clients and 2 siblings. The clinic administrator called me in on this, and I told her that not everyone I work with is super poor (which is true). In reality, I didn't include the 2-3 people who would financially qualify, but already have gone overboard in buying gifts for the kids. I am sure they all think my bah humbug attitude is from not being Christian, but I have spoken to at least one other clinician who didn't put in any requests for this very reason.
