Nope, it doesn't although I believe Ron gets a Chudley Cannon hat from
Harry for Christmas and Harry buys Ron and Hermione the omnioculars
(sp?). I asked this question before and a list member (can't remember
who!) said that JKR said in an interview/chat that Harry *did* give
birthday/christmas presents to his friends regularly but that she
doesn't have space to mention it in the book. I guess it's one of those
"goes without saying" things.

Regardless, the fact that it isn't mentioned still bugs me. Eh well, we
can't have it all...
