“It's the thought that counts.” This age-old adage is often quoted when something is given that may not quite measure up to the expectation. Does this adage apply in the case of Jim and Della and their gift giving? If so, how? If not, why not?

if so : Because these gifts are what they want.
if not: Although these gifts are what they want, But now have no use for them.

I'm not agree with that. Though they want to give the best gift to each other. But they bought something they can't afford. I thought that's not a good movement.

OK. So you do not agree with that. You think there should be better ways to give gifts without sacrificing yourself.
