My "stocking stuffer" this year will be organizing a soup kitchen with friends and family. I'm going to purchase $100 in food and we'll cook it up for the less fortunate(hopefully at the church where my best friend's dad is the janitor).
My mom reminded me about it the other day, as I've wanted to do it for the past couple years but couldn't because of health problems.
Also, $20-$30 is considered a gift when it is for someone that could easily afford something many times that any day of the week. This whole gift giving thing, regardless of the time of year, is out of control. I, for one, opt out of it, with exception to the holidays and that's just to save my mom grief; I do that enough.
