Sorry spam mutta luin juuri tähän liittyvän ainakin minua huvittaneen urbaanilegendan:

[fwd]

Now, let me tell you something which really, truly happened
to a friend of a friend, last Christmas. Her friend is a
busy advertising executive and ran out of time to buy
presents for family and close friends. So instead she
decided to enclose some rather generous cheques with her
Christmas cards, scribbling the message: "Have a lovely
Christmas but, if you don't mind, buy your own present this
year!"

A little impersonal, but actually fairly practical, she
thought. Except that a week or so into January, having not
received the customary thank-yous from her relatives and
friends, she found all the cheques in a drawer. In the rush,
she had neglected to enclose them.

[end fwd]
