Santa Gifts
When I was young, my parents had separate wrapping paper for the gifts that arrived from Santa. Since, of course, Santa wouldn't have access to our wrapping paper... his stuff would have to be different. It's only logical. The Santa paper was either used up or stored somewhere else, or discarded or something. It wasn't with the rest of the wrapping paper, because they would help me wrap my own gifts for people, and we wouldn't want to stumble upon it would we. Santa even wrapped his stocking stuffers.
Alice doesn't do this [edit: Alice doesn't store Santa's paper separately... She most certainly does use different paper too. See her comment below. Sorry Alice]... does make storing paper easier. I think the first year I mentioned that we had to put 'Santa's paper' somewhere else, she looked at me kinda strangely. We don't.
Today at work, someone mentioned that, while they wrap their own gifts and put them out early, they don't wrap Santa's gifts at all... they just appear, unwrapped (and set up) on Christmas Morning. We did that one year with a train table that was just plain too big to wrap, but generallly we do wrap Santa gifts.
So... question to the world... what do you do (or plan to do when you have kids), for Santa gifts? Wrap 'em in exclusive paper? Wrap 'em in anything handy? Put 'em out unwrapped? Put coal in kids stockings? ^_^
