    My parents did wrap 1 or 2 "big things" by which I mean slipper socks or lip smackers, haha. They left candy & stuff like that unwrapped.

    I wrap them but only to "meh- good enough" wrapping.

    Depends on what it is. DH and I usually stick shampoo/deodorant/hair products in each others. Those don't get wrapped. If it's something else like a small handheld game or his ornament then I wrap it. But I use the left over scraps from the big gifts.

    My parents never wrapped so when I met DH I thought it was weird that they wrapped. But he has very few traditions so we have added this to ours. His family also writes cute things on the card for you to guess what is inside. DH is great at them... me not so much. I can be too literal but it is still fun.

    Growing up, most were wrapped.  I usually wrap them (with scraps) but there is no way I'll be wrapping them this year...it would take forever for Claire to rip open each one.

    My mom didn't wrap them, my father didn't, the family I lived with after running away didn't, but my aunt does. DH's family didn't even do stockings. He is funny, he's like "I can't fill a stocking for you, I have no idea what goes in them." I have been trying to show him over the years.

    Wow, I'm surprised so many people wrap them, I'd never heard of wrapping stocking stuffers! I don't think I would, if nothing it's just more paper to clean up!

    I did this year, but only because I don't think the things our stockings are hanging on will hold with the gifts IN them. My mother never wrapped them - the stockings were the things we were allowed to get into before my parents woke up
