Q. I want a keepsake, but short of cash..about $100. I was also thinking "Candy that you grew up with" it comes in a box with a Year of Birth Card and maybe a gift certificate. I need to mail it..she is in another state as well. Ideas please!
A. Mailing candy may not be the best idea, since it is summer and candy tends to melt in heat.
An interesting idea is a newspaper from the day she was born.

I got one from the day I was born in the same city...It is very cool to have around.
Something I've done before that is kind of silly is to buy 40 of a bunch of items. We did this for my grandmother's 80th birthday. We gave her 80 band-aids, a package of 80 envelopes, 80 coffee pods, etc. So everything she opened either had the number 80 on it, or there were 80 of them. She had a great laugh. It does take some time wondering the aisles of Target and Wal-mart and a little planning, but it is generally inexpensive. You could include a $40 gift card to her favorite store or restaurant with the money you save. She won't forget it, because it is so funny to open all of those little things, it makes a great memory.
Another option is to send 40 of her favorite flower, like 40 roses, irises, etc. This might be nice because people tend to be a little on the mean side when someone turns 40.

Whats a good birthday idea for my guy friend?
Q. Okay so me and my sister already got him something. But I want to make him something. But I don't know what. Got any suggestions? He's turning 16. And I really want to make him something special.
A. Here are Some Very Tasty Handmade Gift Ideas:
* Stir up a big batch of your favorite cookie dough. Either pack it into tubs (you can decorate them with markers or stickers) OR form it into logs, wrap with colorful plastic wrap and tie with ribbons. Include baking directions. Eating right out of the tub is allowed! This can stay in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or you can freeze it for several months.
* Make a giant homemade cheesecake with fresh berries or chocolate.
* You can incorporate this quick handmade gift idea into your regular baking or cooking. It is called a “bread of the month” service. Bake and deliver a different kind of bread once a month for the year. Other foods that are great for monthly delivery are cookies or soup.
Here You Can Find a Quick Handmade Gift Idea for a Man:
* Make a compilation CD or cassette of favorite songs. You can title it, “Favorites from the 80’s” or “Best of Jazz”. Add a cover that you design yourself by hand or on the computer.
* Make or buy a little blank book. Decorate it according to this man’s interests or lifestyle. Take it around secretly to all his friends and family and ask them to write the answer to this question on a page: What do you like and respect most about (his name)?
* Paint a sign or nice rock with his name and/or house number and plant in his front yard.
Gd luck! :)

Sweet 16 gift ideas for best friend?
Q. So, as you know, my best friend is going to turn 16. She has been my best friend for 8 years now and I want to get her something special. I have saved up $80 to spend on a great gift. Any ideas?
Her birthday is on September 1st.
She is not a girly girl.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. I know that something expensive isn't necessarily the best, it just has to be fun and special.

A. i think one of the coolest things to do would be for you to by a photoframe (quite big) which is split for different photos - like a collage photoframe. then print out some of the photos you have with her like when you were messing around at someones house, or a holiday or something like that.
this is what i mean by a collage frame : http://cdn.dealsdirect.net/m/products/288/9288/1/product1_9288.jpg
Its not girly but it will mean a lot to her :)
try to have photos from when you were really little so the collage would be like a timeline of your friendship:)
hope this helps:)
