We have here the same 5th of December evening tradition as the Germans, only it's bout another gifts giving character - Saint Nicholas, whose Feast day is today, December 6th, and we celebrate everybody who bears that name.
Usually we get sweets and fruits in our boots, other bigger items/gifts being reserved for Santa Claus and Christmas night.
I only got a switch once in my life, when I was 4 years old and I was devastated. But then, in a few hours time, the chocolate and oranges appeared all of a sudden. The scare was very educational though

.
We didn't have enough boots in the family, to hold all the treats we've got yesterday evening - thank you 'Saint'

In Romanian:

Un An Nou Fericit (A Happy New Year)
or
Sarbatori Fericite (Happy Holidays/Season's Greetings)
