Help me with gift ideas
Edited on Fri Dec-22-06 08:00 PM by BensMom
We do a gift exchange at my parents Christmas day. Everyone brings one gift, and we trade names at that time.

There is a $5 limit - most of us go to $10
It has to be appropriate for anyone from 8 years to my 85 year old parents.

This should be easy - but it is the biggest stumper of the season.

1. chocolate
(I'm eating m&m &E &w &3's (depnds how you turn 'em :) ) )

deck of cards, if people inyourfamily play cards.

batteries? - useful in toys, clocks, flashlights etc. - but the variation in sizes could be tricky.

cheese ball, or other food item.

:shrug: - I'm doing pretty good for someone who loathes shopping without having a list from the person I'm shopping for. :)

Best wishes on finding that "perfect" gift, and Happy Christmas to you and those you love.

:hi:

:hug:
