What are you buying people for Xmas thread.

[ToyfareMark]

We have a thread about what you want for Xmas, but what are you getting people for Xmas?

I just bought my grandmother a Slap Chop, she's so hard to buy for, so I hope she likes it.

What about the rest of you?

[Johnny Nitro]

I'll make a "coupon" to my mom for a free manicure and to my dad a free haircut on any hair salon they want to go (i'll pay them =P). And to my sister probably something with a Calla Lily.

[Lair of the Shadow MaDaBa]

For my sister, seasons six and seven of Monk. For my mom, a lifetime subscription to TiVo.

[Allie Kitsune]

Whatever my father asks for, and that's probably it.

Well, I'll probably buy dinner for my roommate somwhere, too.

There aren't many people I have to shop for, thankfully (since I don't make much).

Gift cards. It's what they want.

[theryno665]

Bought my nephew Lego Indiana Jones and my niece Cooking Mama World Kitchen, both for the Wii, My Word Coach for the DS for my mom and GI Joe on DVD for my stepdad. I think I'm chipping in with my sister on a gift card somewhere for my dad and stepmom. I don't know who I have yet with my friends' Secret Santa drawing. And hopefully that's it. Originally, my sisters and I weren't going to get each other anything but they were asking me what I wanted at Thanksgiving. I told them I don't want anything so hopefully we're not getting each other anything as I'm not getting a lot of hours at work anymore.

I'm fairly broke right now. I did snag my nephews Bolt on DVD and Monopoly Electronic Banking Edition from club.bing.

I usually find my good friend something random and cheap. One year it was a Zombie Clown DVD, another year it was an original Batmobile matchbox and some for Genesis dupe I got.

Dad - Fawlty Towers complete set DVD
Mum - Steel Magnolias DVD
Sister - Babysitters Club VHS

[Non Banjoble Tokens]

I don't know. I'm terrible at this as I always wait until the last minute. Plus, I just really don't have any ideas on what to get who. Well, I guess my Dad needs new speakers for the entertainment center, but those are probably too expensive. Other than that, I'm just not really sure.

[Long A, Short A]

I got m mom some clothes. I got m cousin some DVDs she wanted. I got my brother the PSN card he wanted, but I'm planning on getting him another gift. I got m best friend a cordless phone.

Lean Christmas this year financially, so cutting costs when I can...

Mom - Gift card so she can buy whatever DVDs she wants. (It's what she always asks for)
Dad - Burning a copy of the "Them Crooked Vultures" CD.
Brother - Dinner and two tickets to a Kingston Frontenacs game.
Stepsister - No damn clue yet.
Stepbrother - Unsure, but likely something related to his schoolwork.
Adam - Since we're both in training right now, an IOU to pay for 1/3rd the cost of his wrestling boots.
Megan - Really don't know. She's a tough one to shop for.
Kayla - Probably a gift card to some arts and crafts store; she's into that kinda thing.

[EvilMasterBetty, Esq.]

Parents - Digital Picture frame
Sister - The Hangover and Fast and Furious on DVD
Nephew - A Taggie's puzzle. It's really cute.
Girlfriend - Two People Puzzler magazines and Pixar Shorts DVD. Plus I'm going ring shopping again when I go home.

every year since it came out, my family has watched Christmas Vacation on Thanksgiving as the official start of Christmas. and every year since we first saw it, my mom has wanted on thing: the moose mugs they drink eggnog out of. now since they were props made for the movie to be merchandise for the fictional Marty Moose, the don't exist. a few days ago i was looking up stuff on Amazon, and just for s***s & giggles i decided to look up "moose mugs", and was completely shocked when this came up:



for 20 years my mom has wanted moose mugs, and i didn't give a damn if they were $30 a piece, i ordered five of them, one for each member of the family, for her (and a black Cousin Eddie dickie)

now i just gotta think of something to get my dad, brother and sister.

The local video store was selling it for $1. I couldn't pass it up.

[Professor Chaos]

I haven't had to buy anyone anything in years. Am dating a girl now that's really high maintenance and have no idea what to get her, I know she's gonna expect me to spend an outrageous amount on her which I don't plan on doing.
