What's everyone getting each other for presents this year?

[DaFunkyUnit]

I'd thought it would be fun to share what each of you are giving as gifts.

:)

Yep,... dug myself in quite a hole this year. oh, and i need to get gifts for my parents, bro and sis (aged 19 and 17 respectively), and four cousins (2 boys, ages 10, 2 girls ages 8). kthnxbye

Two Words: GIFT CARDS! If you go to Safeway, they carry gift cards in multiple denominations for over 50 stores/websites. They also carry greeting cards, so you could pretty much do all of your shopping there. :thumb:

We have a bit of a tradition here...besides the "normal" type gifts we exchange, every year I give my wife two of every scratch-off lottery ticket California has available wrapped in a box. She then spend Christmas morning havin fun looking for winners.

We've been doing this for more than 10 years...she loves it. This year is typical in that the collection of two of every available scratch-off comes to about $125 worth of tickets...with some being $1, $3, and $5 scratch-offs.

I've been getting my mom 2 of them a year for probably 10 years. She loves putting them by the window where they make a cool rainbow on the wall.

So, you get an employee discount.... j/k!

[molecularfire]

are you sure they are women's socks? :laugh:
Yeah, if the pretty designs and the fact that no guy would admit to having feet that small aren't enough of a give-a-way... all the women laughing and pointing when I unwrapped it were.

[speedracer120]

I actually got some T-shirts for cousins and such. And a necklace for someone but I'm actually having second thoughts about giving it to her, the timing is just weird I guess.

[_=DeltaForce=_]

MOM- Irobot Rhoomba Discovery 4210
Dad- Snowblower from Amazon.com
Cousins- Gift cards?

[zero2dash]

My wife's family doesn't buy anything for anyone but kids...and this year (with $$$ short), I suggested the same to my family and that's what we're doing. Anyhow:

-My wife - Degrassi: The Next Generation Season 1 + 2 DVD sets plus the "Songs From Degrassi: The Next Generation" audio cd (first pressed cd I've bought in months...heh) (I spent about $100 off eBay and saved a little money, although shipping was overpriced and made my "savings" a lot less than they should be.)

-Our daughter - lots of toys and clothes. I picked out a Little People house for her, plus we got her a Sit-N-Spin, a Parents Magazine toy iPod (sorta like the real thing), a Sleepy Time Dora The Explorer doll...and god knows how much other stuff I've forgotten about at this point. (We spent about $200)

-Val's brothers - we bought each of them a t-shirt. Joe gets one that is pink and says "Tough Guys Wear Pink" (he wore a pink shirt last Thanksgiving that said "Hottie" or some fruity saying and we've made fun of him all year for it - he doesn't care though, he's goofy like that). Ben gets a shirt that has a girl figure talking to a boy and underneath it says "Problem" and then next to it, there's a pair of headphones and the word "Solution" (which is what he did to his g/f..she was talking to him one time and he was sick of hearing her complain so he put on a pair of headphones...LOL).

-My 15 y/o niece is getting a really pretty Lei brand watch...the band is silver with heart shapes and the face is a deep purple with a heart on it (got it at Gordman's for $10).

-My nephews...Kyle's getting a sweatshirt and Andrew's getting a Hot Wheels car garage set.

I have no clue what I'm getting (obviously). :) I'm still riding the buzz from getting my free laptop (http://www.gotapex.com/forums/showthread.php?t=95079). :heh:

[YanksFanRy]

Parents: Mojito glasses and coasters
Grandma: A fancy keychain
Friends: A game, calendars, CD, etc.

as long as its a pearl necklace, anytime is a good time.

:hihi:

[speedracer120]

Hahahaha. Uhm NO! :hihi:
But I do plan on giving her the pendant tommorow night, hopefully.

[kimchicowboy]

parents: sisters are taking care of it
sisters: nothing as i spent the money on charitable causes instead. :P
