I buy Christmas gifts for my cousins (who are not yet supporting themselves, my dad's side since my mom's side is in korea (4 of them) and my cousin's kids. I also buy gifts for DH's bff's 3 sons. but not for his extended family-
I've done pic frames/handwritten letters to aunts/uncles in the past, but I don't have the time or energy for that this year

Nah... I really only buy gifts for close family. I do get some small things for others though.

I purchase gifts for grandparents, and nieces/nephews, but that's as extended as it gets. No gifts for aunts/uncles or cousins!

Absolutely none. We don't even really buy gifts for our parents and siblings (though we do a swap for DH's family).

No we only buy for our parents and siblings and our nephew and my grandma. We do not buy for any aunts/uncles/cousins/cousins' kids/my husband's grandparents.

DH's family is big and close knit so I always have 20+ kids on my list every year, all over the country. I come from a small family so even after 11 years together I still get stressed out every holiday season.

We only buy gifts for extended family that we are actually going to see in person over the holidays. Many live abroad so it's not practical to ship anyway..

I stopped doing gifts for my cousins once they graduate high school. I buy for my older cousin's children, since they are like nieces and nephews to me. Then my Aunts and Uncle, I try and do something little. This year they are getting a picture of R, even my cousins.
R made a Christmas craft for the whole family.

Yup!! We spend waaaay much more money on "extended' family than immediate becaus our extended family is that big! I love it until I get my credit card bill next month and I'm like ouch! haha! But it's worth it in my book.

No - just parents and siblings and maybe something small for grandparents on DHs side (they still buy him a lot of gifts).
I do get something small for my cousins babies though! But that's just because they are cute and I can't help it
