Interesting side note: Kringle might be the only Fae able to actually give gifts without getting something in exchange.
Unless you count "being nice" as part of the arrangement.

This was my thought on the subject as well.  Good Behaviors vs. Gift.

Agreed.  Especially since there is a separate set of consequences for Bad Behavior. 

Also there is the Milk & Baked Goods that people leave out, but arguably that could be a cultural memory of how to summon Fairies in general (milk&bread being the traditional offering, even for Toot back in SF)

And when you think about it, what is Pizza largely made of?

Bread and a dairy product.

No wonder the pixies like it so much.

... When I have kids, I'm gonna teach them to leave pizza out for Santa.

Ho Ho Ho
هل أخذت الغاب مثلي منزلاً دون القصور
فتتبعت السواقي وتسلقت الصخور
هل تحممت بعطره وتنشفت بنور
وشربت الفجر خمراً من كؤوس من أثير
