Do the "12 dates of Christmas" with my boyfriend instead of exchanging gifts
Oh Oprah 1 day ago

I saw this idea on Oprah and it sounded pretty cool. Instead of exchanging gifts this year, my boyfriend and I are going to go on “12 dates” in December. The dates are supposed to be cheap and creative. Basically instead of exchanging objects, we’ll be giving each other time together as our gifts.
