Question for the Holiday Season

The results are in! When offered the choice between receiving a book, money, a favourite toy, or sports equipment during the holiday season, most people who voted would prefer to receive...

A BOOK!

We would like to ask you one last question in 2014: 

Do you prefer to give or receive gifts?

The answers will be posted in the beginning of 2015!
