I always spend Xmas with my immediate family - it feels like just another day to me nowadays, but I should consider myself lucky to have at least someone to spend it with.
I totally agree with what you are saying re consumerism - the advantage of not having friends is that I don't have to buy or receive a lot of crap that just clutters up the house. Experiences, though, are something I should aim towards getting.
