Dear Prudence,
My aunt and uncle are an older, well-to-do couple and the only relatives on my mother’s side. Recently, my aunt has become a “stylist” for a jewelry-party company, the sort that rewards its associates for sales to friends and acquaintances. Since then, she only give us her company’s items for Christmas, none of which we particularly care for, and emails us the receipts in order to boost her sales numbers. We don’t even like these items! We either give them away to charity or let them sit in a drawer. My mother has tried gently hinting that we have enough jewelry, and my sister and I are pushing for a gift-free Christmas. What should we do?
