Last year I got a little $$. Not enough to brag about. This year I am not sure. So far nothing but I guess I'll find out on the 18th. ( Christmas party
)

Since I'm unemployed, I think I'll just get myself a little something for a Christmas bonus

Yes I do do
Usually gift certificates, I got one for Chile's Restaurant already. But because I'm lazy and only work a couple of days not to much stuff, My one Customer spends 6 weeks in Hawaii they own property there and they take the whole family she pays me for the time she will be gone

I get a $25 gift card from them, it's one that's more of a pain in the butt than a gift.... you can't use it online or they charge you $13, you can't use it at a food place, you can't use it at a gas station.....well where the heck can you use it?!

We usually get an extra $100 in our paycheck, but the way this company is so shaky, I'm just glad to get the paycheck!!

We don't get holiday bonuses, but we do get bonuses. Our bonus is based on how well we meet certain goals, and they usually come in late February or early March.

For thanksgiving they give us a $25 gift card to one of the local supermarkets.. it's sort of a "we'll buy the turkey, the rest is up to you"
But still more of a pain in the butt than it's worth since I'm in a BFE area and it's a hike to this specific supermarket.

But I won't look a gift turkey in the mouth


Nothing for the december holidays. But with the industry I'm in taking a bit of a hit lately, I don't think my company had the money to do it this year.

Yes, I do get a very nice bonus from my boss. Great guy he is!
He also takes us out for a very nice dinner the week before Christmas. I always look forward to this.

DH and I both work for the state (University researchers) so no bonuses for us
We both love our jobs though, FWIW.

We get a small bonus from the administrative offices of the archdiocese. It helps buy Xmas presents for my nieces and nephews.

I just found out from our company president that there's the possibility of $2000 bonuses this year...

I'm not counting my chickens before they hatch though. We usually get closer to $500.
