At least you got cakes.  My birthday is  4 days after Christmas.  I don't think I ever got a birthday cake.
My mother was a manicurist and always got lots of gifts from her clients.  If I was lucky she would give me one of them and say "Happy Birthday".
After my kids were born we went all out on Christmas.  To me it is a holiday for kids, for make believe and wishes coming true.  I didn't want them to miss that.

After thatChristmas, I told the kids what Mommy wanted, and they told him. As for now, he's his new wife's problem and they deserve each other.

My Dad is smart but not very smart when it comes to presents. When I was 9 years old I opened up a gift from him and it was an epilator! What would a 9 year old do with that!? I don't think my Dad even knew what it was to tell you the truth. haha...... Another crazy gift I received, from my Mom this time, was actually a stocking stuffer. It was one of those fake lottery scratch-off tickets but at the time I thought it was real! I had to match 3 like amounts to win and when I scratched off the third $20,000 I went crazy! I ran through the entire house screaming, jumping, and clapping. I didn'****ch where I was going and ended up falling on one of the end tables and breaking it. I screamed "It's okay, Mom, I will buy you another end table - we won $20,000!!!." The entire family was standing around the living room when she broke the news to me that it was a fake lottery ticket. They all knew it was fake! I was never more embarrassed in my entire life... well, yeah I was, but this was a close runner-up. lol

The worst X-mas present I ever got was...nothing.

I was in the second grade, and we drew names at school. There were only about 100 kids in the entire 8 grades, and we all had X-mas together in the auditorium. All the gifts were piled under the tree, and the principal handed them out one at a time. Every kid in school got a gift---except me.

I still remember the name of the little boy who'd drawn my name but brought no gift. From then on, my mom always sent TWO gifts to school at X-mas with each of us kids---one for whomever's name we'd drawn, and one for US, just in case.

On a lighter note, a few X-mases ago my SIL gave me a pumice stone for X-mas---"Because now you can reach your feet."

Mine would have to be the year I got a coat and a blanket for my bed and a few days after Christmas my mother took all the presents back to the store and got her money back.  She was a horrible mother.

ETA:  I forgot about the Christmas we had to spend with my father and stepmother.  We woke up Christmas day to a tree with tons of gifts under it.  My sister and I got nothing.  My step mother came over and handed each of us a silver dollar as our gifts.  Then she took them back saying she was going to save them for us because if she sent them home with us my mother would just spend them.  I never saw that dollar again anyway.  

I really never have the Christmas spirit.  DH doesn't understand that, but Christmas was always just my mother *****ing about how she couldn't afford it and how my sister and I were just ingrates and wouldn't appreciate any of the gifts and on and on.  Then there were always crappy cheap gifts and nothing to be happy about.
