What gifts are you planning to get (or have already gotten) for family members, friends, coworkers, etc? Here's my list. Feel free to add on stuff as soon as you get more!
Mom: I already bought her a green ipod mini that was supposed to be a combined birthday/Christmas gift, but I wanted to get her a little something for her to open on Christmas. I think I am going to get her a $15 gift certificate to Kohl's department store or the local nail salon she loves going to :)
Dad: Grr, I am really stuck on what to get him this year :( I might just get him a gift card to Borders bookstore (he loves to read) or buy him a nice sweater.
Kalin (oldest brother): I bought him the Neutral Milk Hotel c.d. he wanted.
Kevin (second oldest brother): He still hasn't told me what he wants, so I may end up getting him a gift certificate to F.Y.E. music store or a bottle of cologne.
Kenny (youngest brother): I bought him a Nautica cologne set (comes with the cologne, after shave lotion, and aftershave cologne). It was only $23!
Grandma: I was thinking of getting her something for her house, perhaps a candle set or some other type of decorative things. She loves apple-scented anything, so I might just go with the candle set :)
Grandma's boyfriend: He looooves redneck, gag gift type things :lol: (he's from the South), so I'm on the hunt for stuff like that. Last year I got him a 'You Know You're a Redneck when' type calendar, so I might do something similar (perhaps a Jeff Foxworthy book or DVD) :lol:
Best friend: I already put together a cute Christmas themed gift for her and she LOVED it. I went to CVS about a week ago and had the idea to buy little Christmas-y type things--I bought 2 pairs of Christmas socks, a pack of those holiday flavored lip balms that Lip Smackers puts out (they have flavors like Holiday Punch, Sugar Plum, etc), a cute candle shaped like a snowman, a really awesome candy cane that is shaped to look like a Christmas tree (this thing looks amazing! I wouldn't want to eat it), a few boxes of Whitman's chocolates (the boxes were decorated for the holiday...I got her one green one and one red one), and a jumbo-sized chocolate chip cookie that came in a cute little Christmas tin. I put all these things in a red Christmas gift bag, included the card, and had a really nice gift in the end :) I'm glad she loved it.
Anyone else?
