Never. We don't even get each other presents for birthdays or Christmas. Saves us both from stressing about what to "buy someone who has everything".

Same. We go away, or have dinner somewhere nice, enjoy each other's company. There's just no point with presents - if either one of us wants something, we already got it for ourselves. I think it's lovely that some couples have special talents to make or craft things for each other but we're not those people.

Makes sense, we tend to mostly focus on consumables (usually food or drinks) for presents, even someone who has everything will still enjoy some chocolate
