Some of these ideas may be a bit too lame. I like the Theater gift certificate & the specialty cookbook ones. I was thinking a Christmas card with instant lottery tickets would make a good inexpensive gift. Any other ideas??
 
I have not gotten anything yet. I'll do my shopping after Christmas.
 
My kids and I made a bunch of miniature ornaments out of polymer clay (FIMO) and decorated mini trees

^^^I like your clay ornaments, must have taken a lot of time to make all of those.
 
Your cock is most excellent

It's relaxing

But if you wait until after Christmas won't it be too late?

Not really. I'm not getting very many people gifts this year. Only one of those people I shall be seeing on Christmas.

Plus there might be sales after Christmas.
 
I will do zero Christmas shopping.
 
Bah Humbug
 
It's looking as if I will be doing zero Christmas shopping as well. :( I just had to pay out $300 between my car sticker, car insurance & electric bill!!
 
I've gone out the last two days intending to do Christmas shopping and just ended up hanging out with friends. I should feel guilty, but I don't.

God knows what I'm going to get some people, though! :phpeek:

It'll be ok :)
 
You're right, it was. :) Most people got books which they can give to me if they don't want to read them.
