It's a sin just how commercialized Christmas has become, and it's setting a very bad example for children. While I'm often broke, that makes no difference in how I feel about the true meaning of Christmas.
Of course, giving is something that makes (most of) us extremely happy. It is nice to, additionally, put smiles on the faces of others. Church, prayer and/or tradition should always be part of it, though.

Naw! I don't believe the commerciality of Christmas is all that important at all!
Christmas decorations, and presents for sale in stores, should begin the day before Father's Day...then Dad could get a Cabbage Patch...uh, doll.
For the Fourth of July...we could see fireworks that look like Santa's Sleigh.
For Labor Day...the workers could all be decorated in tinsel.
For Halloween...what could be better than Dracula coming down the chimney?
For Thanksgiving...red velvet bows on the drumsticks.
For New Year's...skip that one...no one's sober enough to care.
For New Year's Day...start sending Christmas cards.
Aw, let's go on then...
For Valentine's Day...Santa's Elves hawking chocolates.
For Easter...children finding hidden reindeer in the grass.
Naw, Christmas isn't commercial at ALL! Now, why would you ask that, T.D?

Funny you should ask that, seeing as how I'm both. But, commercialism really is unimportant if you don't have kids and put some thought into making the thought what counts.

Nope. I always felt commercialism of Christmas to be in very poor taste.

Nope, even when you have money, the crassness of the season can be annoying
