Christmas Gifts

Postby SnoringFrog » Fri Dec 21, 2007 9:38 am

This probably seems a little unusual, but I need help with Christmas gift ideas for my parents. I'm at an utter loss as to what to get either of them. I'm not sure why, but I can never think of a gift for anyone, I'm just horrible at it. Quite frankly, I guess I'm just not in tune with other people's likes and dislikes. Can anyone offer any sort of help?

When I was your age, I asked my mom for ideas of things I could get dad, and vis-versa. Nowadays, I usually get gift certificates to places I know they go a lot.

Random idea... You might give both of them a gift certificate to a nice restaurant, so they can have a nice dinner together.

I ended up getting my dad a new flashlgiht ((he's into lights and knives and such)), and I think I know what I'm getting my mom now, but I'm keeping that gift certificate idea in my head for next year. It's definitely a good one.

As for music, my dad's not too big on music, and he already got my mom some for Christmas anyhow...so that was kinda taken, lol.

Thanks for the help.
