I cant be the only one who have no idea what so ever of what to buy this year so ITT we give and take advice for our christmas shopping to our relatives and loved ones :woot:


Anyways, I need presents for:
Dad + Significant other
Mom + Significant other
24 yo sister (interests: cars and rockabilly culture) :-)whatever:)
15 yo brother (intersests football (=am: soccer) and videogames)
Grandma
Grandma

I got one present ready tho, for my other brother I'm giving aDoctor Who poster with Dr10 and Martha, so thats all taken care of, but the other ones I black out when I try and come up with something :dry: And I'm a university student so my money inst exactly helping either haha.
 
Just ask mom's significant other about your mom and vice versa. Same thing for your dad. Ask your sister about your brother. Or have everybody start doing lists.
 
I went to Barnes and Noble and saw a lot of books on clearance sale that I found interesting. It might be worth it to try there and see if you find anything that appeals to them.
 
Maybe I can help with the mom gifts. These are very girly presents, but here's the kind of stuff I usually get for my mom and my husband's mom:

*Nice pajama sets (with pants and shirt included, or even a robe and slippers to go with it)
*Bath items: shower gel, lotion, loofah/sponge, soaps. Many women like the sets you get from Bath and Body Works (I recommend Sweet Pea scent, most people seem to like it), or you can get Dove or Olay sets at stores like Target/Wal-Mart (these will be a little less expensive, around $10, but still very nice)
*Cookbooks or nice serving dishes (nothing strictly utilitarian unless she asks for it)
*Books or magazine subscriptions if you have an idea of her reading preferences
*Coffees and teas, and a nice mug or teapot/teacup to go with it

Hope this helps to give you a few ideas. I'm sure they'll be happy with whatever you give them!
