best gift ideas for men image



SpitzFire


I need some good gift ideas for men - stuff that any man would like. Just as you can almost always buy bath stuff for women or gift cert to clothes store, what kinds of generic gifts do men like? I'm talking men in the 40+ year old age range. I already have stuff like gift cert to home depot, microbrewery samples etc. Ok guys out there - what kind of generic gift would YOU like to receive? Please try to keep ideas in the $20-$50 range.


Answer
Cologne, nail care kit, pajama pants, gift card to Total Wine and More(or some other upscale alcohol beverage store). I think I would try to stay away from the gift card thing though because it seems like you put less thought into it. Most men love getting manicures even though they don't like to admit it. And pajamas are always a safe way to go and you can get a good brand for under 50 dollars. You can get a great nail care kit for under 50 dollars and every man is diligent about taking care of there nails. Good luck!

baby shower gift ideas for men?




Stephanie


I am planning a baby shower that is co-ed. We have the gifts for the games for the women (from dollar store, etc) but what would be some great gift ideas for the men? thanks for all your help, in advance!


Answer
I don't know much English but I will try my best to explain.

ok. well some ativities you can try are filling some baby bottles with wine or beer. and having a contest to see who finishes first.

another one that I did has buying the cheap plastic babies and putting diapers on them with ketchup, or mayonnaise, what ever as long as it feel nasty. they will have something on their eyes so they can't see. and try their best to change the diaper and put a new one on. they also need baby wipes. the guy who cleans better the baby, and puts on the diaper correctly wins.

hope it helps.

..."the man before him was not an aging father but a boy, a boy much like himself, a boy who grew up and had a child of his own and, as best he could, out of a sense of duty and, perhaps love, adopted a role called Being a Father so that his child would have something mythical and infinitely important: a Protector, who would keep a lid on all the chaotic and catastrophic possibilities of life."

need ideas for a 12-13 year old christmas gifts! many ideas please!?




Kopu


I have no idea what hes into, a price range of 0-250 total! I need multiple gift ideas, thank you so much for helping!


Answer
Is he into gaming? If so, Halo 4, Assassins Creed 3, and Black Ops 2 recently came out. ($60 Each) make sure they are on whichever console he has.

Does he have an iPhone, iPod or an iPad? If so you can never go wrong with a gift card or maybe a case with something cool on it. (price varies.)

Does he have a Kindle Fire? If so, maybe a case or an Amazon gift card.

Does he like NFL? Maybe a jersey of his favorite team/ favorite player (which you can ask his parents about)

Is he really into books? If so how about a kindle fire? Or just an average kindle or nook? With a giftcard.

Does he like movies? If so how about some of his favorite movies? Or if he has an xbox,iPod,ipad,iphone,playstation 3, or a wii and an internet connection how about a year long Netflix subscription? Its $8 a month.

This one may sound lame- but socks and hoodies. I personally love hoodies find his favorite brand. Northface? Under Armour? Nike? And with socks- everyone loves socks man i wish that my holiday season consisted of more socks. Get his favorite color, a design that he might like. If he's athletic than Nike Elite socks are great, so are under armour.

Does he like music but not have an iPod? If so then you can buy an ipod nano for a reasonable sum online and pick up a giftcard. Or maybe you can go the extra expensive mile and get him an ipod touch.

Headphones are a necessity for teenagers. Skullcandy and Beats are the most popular, but They break rather easily. I like Sennheisers and SOLs.

All else fails buy him a wallet and put some cash/ giftcards in it.

Hope I helped.

Why do people think its wrong that my girlfriend is older then me?

great gift ideas 40 year old woman
 on The-Ultimate-Resource by Doug Batchelor Copyright � 2006 The ...
great gift ideas 40 year old woman image



WestCoast


Its not like were having sex or anything, I just go to country clubs with her/classy parties etc. My parents really like her and she is very educated and everything. Its not like shes a loser, she buys me awesome gifts and does not expect me work a dumb job at McDonald's. (To stressful) If I was a girl dating an older man no one would think that's bad, so why do people think its bad when its the other way around? My girlfriend might not be "Attractive" but its the heart that counts and age is just a number, I'm 16 and know what I'm doing. I plan on marrying her when I turn 18 and life will be great. Ill move out of my parents old home and into her nicer one and be a great supportive husband. We agree on almost everything and the things we don't like children are not a big deal. She does not want any kids and I'm fine with it. It just annoys me that were ever I go people always think "Gold Digger" or something like that, I would love my girlfriend weather she had money or not.
@ Birds Fly South: Wow, that was great advice thanks.



Answer
first of all. You are obviously 16 and immature and dont know how life really works.

In the REAL world.. its older man younger woman couples that are the most vilified couples.
I have never in my life heard anybody vilify older woman younger male couples. White culture doesnt even call older white women pedophiles for getting pregnant with their 13 year old student's babies.

I think older woman younger male couples are paranoid because their relationships dont work that well and they think the relationships arent working because they arent accepted.
They dont work as well for other reasons. (fertility etc)

No older woman ever called my dad a cougar for falling in love with my mom when she was 19 and married her when she was between 24 and 25 and he was more than twice her age.
Even when my mom was 40's.. my dad STILL got called names by family gossipers.

And no older woman called my mom a gilrrtoy. No, she got nasty words like "gold digger" because dad owned a manufacturing company.

I have never heard older women do anything in life BUT bash older male younger female couples.

I've even heard older women call us 28-34 year old guys pervs for dating
22 year old females while at the same time calling women twice our ages cougars for dating someone that age.

So... older white women vilifiy all age gaps where the male is older. I happen to be white male with asian female..and we are out of the juristiction of white females. no white male is going to push a young asian woman off of us because old white women dont like it. For as long as white/asian couples continue to raise more scholars than white/white couples per capita.. we will never take breeding advice from white/white couples.

but this isnt about me. I'm in a different place in my life than you are. You are a kid. Your idea of "love" will change 1000x over the coming years. by the time you are 26... you will have hot 18-25 year old females looking your way with slobbering mouths dreaming of a husband...and they will be pretty hard to resist once you see how great their bodies are. Just like I can never resist them.

But you said "i would love my girlfirend whether she had money or not"..yet you mentioned her money quite a bit in your post.

"classy parties"... "gifts".... "nicer house"...."gold digger" (dude... no male is ever called a gold digger. That is a sexist expression that only females who breed intelligently are subject to. Most males who date older celebrity women, for example.. get called "boy toys" not .. "gold diggers". Its a sexist expression with EXCLUSIVE feminine usage. My mom lived with it for 30 years. Her crime? avoiding white trash in favor of white gold males)

If your chick is over 18.. that is an immoral relationship right off the bat but you are too immature to realize it.

But when you are 30.. your wife will be younger than you and you will have a career of your own and you will be strong and independent.

I've seen that 1000000000x.

Almost every male i knew in college who dated someone older than them.... married someone their junior. (especially in the upperclass where I grew up).

People dont think its wrong. White culture gave the female version of the "dirty old man".. cuter words like "cougar" and "milf". Its how white culture functions. We always establish one group as the inferior poeple and another group the superior one. Cougar and boy toy is the superior relationship. Dirty old man and gold digger is the inferior one despite greater success.

Older woman younger male is the nazi and older male younger woman is the more successful jew.
Same parallel minus killing.


My dad made a successful marriage out of a 20+ year gap.. but the only person who ever gave him a nice word was my mom "sugar poppie". My sister coined it but my mom liked it and my dad thought it was cute. But everybody else in her family? "dirty old man". Period.
My grandma didnt accept him until she got sick and then suddenly realized what the perk of having a rich son in law is "life saving medical care money". suddenly he wasnt dirty old man anymore.
(except with my aunts and my middle class friends who couldnt relate to the upperclass lifestyle and the marriages that exist in the upperclass)


dont worry about what people think. Nobody hates older woman younger male couples. You arent the hated couple that i was raised by and its condescending for you to suggest you are.

But if you divorce her at 40 and take half her money and use it to attract hot 23 year old girls.. thats when society is going to hate you. Stick up for yourself then too. There is no such thing as a law abiding dirty old man.

Its ok for the upperclass to breed

christmas with a budget...any ideas?




chantal h


This year hasn't ben the best for me and my fiance'. we need ideas for cheap ideas for christmas presents. presents range from a little 2 year old gilr to a 40 year old woman.
please help if you have any ideas! greatly appreciated!



Answer
For the young children play dough. It is cheap and fun. You can also get together some old cookie cutters you have or buy a huge lot of them for very little money and give them a little gift bag with the play dough and cookie cutters.

If times are really tough you could make the playdough - just get a recipe online and add in something to make it really special such as a scent, or glitter, etc.

How about making those fleece blankets. The kinds where you cut the ends and tie the knots? You can get directions online easily too. They are always nice to have and cuddle up too.

Cracker Barrel has adorable Christmas ornaments for only a couple dollars.

A cool jar from the dollar store, filled with homemade cookies and a cheap ornament on top is a perfect gift. Wrap it up beautifully and you have a great present for just a small amount of money.

Good luck! SD

What should i get my younger sister for birthday? SHe is 19 and goes to college?




Tajcool


I was gonna get her a Kinect but they are sold out everywhere locally. Her birthday is today and I was wondering if i can have some quick great gift ideas. Preferably electronics, no ipod/iphone/ipad stuff. Something different
SHe is not into hardcore gaming. I was gonna get kinect cuz it is fun and she liked Wii



Answer
The best thing you can by for her is a gift card, that way she can use it and purchase what she likes. As a college student, she can use the card to purchase items she needs for college because many students do not have a lot of money and a gift card can go a long way for something she needs for her personal use.

Can anyone tell me what a gift attendant is?




nia l


My brother-in-law and his fiancee have asked my daughters and my niece to be "gift attendants" in their wedding. The girls are 11, 9 and 9 years old. They said that the girls do not need formal dresses like the flower girl will be wearing, and that they can wear whatever they wish. I'm just wondering what their responsibilities will be during the ceremony. This isn't something I've heard about before, and I don't know the bride-to-be very well, so I feel uncomfortable asking. Any ideas?


Answer
Gift attendants are for the reception. They are in charge of looking after any gifts that are brought by the guests. They also help put them in whatever car the gifts need to go in to go home. Btw, this sounds a bit weird that they have asked children to do this?

How to make unique wind chimes?

best friend graduation gift ideas
 on APPROPRIATE GRADUATION GIFTS | Holiday Gifts
best friend graduation gift ideas image



Allison Lo


I'm making my friend a graduation gift. She really loves wind chimes, so I'm thinking of making her one. I need any kind of advice/how-to's I can get. I don't want just a traditional wind chime, but a really unique one. For example, she has one made out of forks and spoons. Anyone, please help :]


Answer
I don't really know how this would look, but I have an idea in my head.....

Go to a thrift store and buy an old ceramic tea pot and a few cups and saucers. You could use the tea pot as the "base" (for lack of a better word) and then possibly (carefully) crack the saucers and cups into smaller pieces and use them for the chimes on the end of strings.....or you even do the same thing (without the cracking) using a children's tea set.

I've also seen wind chimes made from tile (as in flooring tile) you can get the bigger pieces and break them up, or you can get the smaller squares that they use for accents, or do a combination of both. Of course, what you use for the main piece at the top would be up to you.

Basically what I would do is just go on a shopping spree at a thrift store (they have some of the most wonderful finds for crafts there), buy a whole collection of things, take it home, and see what you come up with. No matter what you make she's going to dearly love it because it came from the heart. Homemade gifts are always a thousand times better than anything you buy. Good luck.

One of my best friends might be moving and I don't know if she'll still be at my school by the day after tomorrow. I want to make her a gift for tomorrow, but i have no idea what to do. Any cool and creative ideas? Thanks : ))))


Answer
One of the most amazing gifts i ever recieved from my best friend (who lives in another country from me) was a calender. For every month, she had stuck a picture of either her, me, or us together. It was for my 17th birthday back in 2010 and it was for 2011, but even today, in 2012, it hangs on my wall near my bed on a picture of the words 'i love *then my name is written here* that wasnt designated to a month. That calender means SO much to me. Maybe something similar for your friend?

Eh, of those I like Waldo the best but I've already thought of that. Thanks anyway.



Answer
You could be Waldo or Wanda from Where's Waldo, you could wear a cute striped sweater with a matching hat, then just jeans and some warm shoes! If you've ever seen A Christmas Story, you could wear a pink bunny costume like he gets for Christmas(: You could go 80's, with your hair crimped and teased in a scrunchy and some crazy makeup, and wear some harem pants or leggings with legwarmers and converse, with a sweatshirt with the neck cut out! You could even try going as a toddler, with footie pajamas and a blanket wrapped around you. You could put your hair in pigtails and carry around a teddy bear and suck your thumb! I hope these helped, or at least gave you some better ideas(; Good luck with everything, hope you have an awesome Halloween!

What shoe size would a filipino boy where?




Jennifer


What size shoe would a 10 year old filipino boy wear? We need to buy school shoes for our soon to be adoptive son and we don't even know how big he is. So I'm wondering what the average shoe size would be for his age. Please don't answer for other races, just filipino. And please specify what sizing system (us, european, etc.)


Answer
Good day.

My nephew is just turning 10 this October and his shoe size is 7(US) or 6(UK).
During Christmas times some orphanned kids from the orphanage spends the holiday with us. Some of the boys are 10 year old kids and some of them we buy some shoes (the gifts we gives depends on the children wishes, we asks the nuns who run the orphanage or asks the kids directly). On my experience most of the "pure" filipino kids between 9 to 10 have the average shoe size between 5 to 7(US sizes).
Based on my experiences, ethnicity, social status of the family where the child belongs, genes, nutrition plays an important role in determining the size of the feet (hypothetically speaking) of a child.
My nephew came from a well-off family, maybe that explain he has bigger feet. And those kids who "visited" us every christmas are not well fed during the early years, so most of them has smaller feet (except some who have western father that left them before they were born).
On my conclusion, most Filipino have 5.5 to 6.5(US) average shoe sizes. If the filipino kid you are about to adapt came from a poor family background it is safe to say (based on my experience) that he is about 6(if slightly higher for his family background), If he is well fed.
I hope these info will help.

Answer
I wouldn't go for a picture on paper, if that's what you were thinking of doing. Paint it on some quality canvas.

Don't go for simple phrases like I love you, IMO. Make it something that he can hang on his wall for years to come. Just try some simple images of how he makes you feel. Here's some inspiration:

A gift certificate for a massage at a local day spa. Some gift certificates are impersonal, but that kind of gift certificate really says, "Take some time out for a break, I think you deserve it." In my area, I can get a gift certificate for a 45 minute massage for $50.

It's my mother's 60th Birthday upcoming, any ideas for Birthday gifts?

Nothing OTT, we aren't that kind of family. But something nice that she wouldn't ordinarily get herself.

Thanks!



Answer
I dont know what OTT stands for so I apoligize if I suggest something OTT.
1. A nice little trip somewhere just you and her like a little weekend.
2. Jewelery
3. A big picture of the family framed
4. You could make a decorative book addressed to her with lots of messages from all the family, her friends saying nice things about her nice poems inside it will be something to treasure forever

How can I present this really cool gift to my husband?




suzanne p


I was lucky to win tickets for a Masters practice round and I am giving them to my husband for his 60th birthday. I would like to give them to him in a creative way, instead of just putting in a card. Any ideas?


Answer
Why don't you take three for 4 big boxes, graduate them until you get to the smallest, and that will have the ticket in it.Wrap each box and put them inside each other.This will drive him crazy.

What a nice gift to win for your husband.

I need help with an extremely budget friendly christmas gift idea for my fiances grandma. A little about her:
Shes white. She's 73 but in very very very good health. She basically raised my fiance. They have a strained relationship but me and her get along very well. She is very outspoken, very blunt. Not very religious.
Money is tight this year and I have trouble shopping cheap so I needed help finding something worth having for a price between $15 and $25.
Thanks

You can get lemons, almonds, and organges you can get at your local grocery store or farm stand. Vanilla beans you can get off Amazon.com

It is an inexpensive gift but it is something she will like plus you can personalize the bottles or jars you use.

I am a contracter for the Maryland State govt. ways I can lower my tax liability?




G Hook


I do not make a lot and have to pay taxes at the beginning of the years. I need ways of lowering my federal and states tax for how much I have to pay I know charity donations, car leases any other ideas?


Answer
Issue Number: IRS Tax Tip 2013-45 Inside This Issue Nine Tips on Deducting Charitable Contributions
Giving to charity may make you feel good and help you lower your tax bill. The IRS offers these nine tips to help ensure your contributions pay off on your tax return.
1. If you want a tax deduction, you must donate to a qualified charitable organization. You cannot deduct contributions you make to either an individual, a political organization or a political candidate
2. You must file Form 1040 and itemize your deductions on Schedule A. If your total deduction for all noncash contributions for the year is more than $500, you must also file Form 8283, Noncash Charitable Contributions, with your tax return.
3. If you receive a benefit of some kind in return for your contribution, you can only deduct the amount that exceeds the fair market value of the benefit you received. Examples of benefits you may receive in return for your contribution include merchandise, tickets to an event or other goods and services.
4. Donations of stock or other non-cash property are usually valued at fair market value. Used clothing and household items generally must be in good condition to be deductible. Special rules apply to vehicle donations.
5. Fair market value is generally the price at which someone can sell the property.
6. You must have a written record about your donation in order to deduct any cash gift, regardless of the amount. Cash contributions include those made by check or other monetary methods. That written record can be a written statement from the organization, a bank record or a payroll deduction record that substantiates your donation. That documentation should include the name of the organization, the date and amount of the contribution. A telephone bill meets this requirement for text donations if it shows this same information.
7. To claim a deduction for gifts of cash or property worth $250 or more, you must have a written statement from the qualified organization. The statement must show the amount of the cash or a description of any property given. It must also state whether the organization provided any goods or services in exchange for the gift.
8. You may use the same document to meet the requirement for a written statement for cash gifts and the requirement for a written acknowledgement for contributions of $250 or more.
9. If you donate one item or a group of similar items that are valued at more than $5,000, you must also complete Section B of Form 8283. This section generally requires an appraisal by a qualified appraiser.
For more information on charitable contributions, see Publication 526, Charitable Contributions. For information about noncash contributions, see Publication 561, Determining the Value of Donated Property. Forms and publications are available at IRS.gov or by calling 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676).

Go to the www.irs.gov website and use the search box for any of the Additional IRS Resources:
•Publication 526, Charitable Contributions
•Publication 561, Determining the Value of Donated Property
•Schedule A, Itemized Deductions
•Form 8283, Noncash Charitable Contributions
Hope that you find the above enclosed information useful. 08/13/2013

What Should I Get My Best Friend For Christmas?

best friend graduation gift ideas
 on 8th grade graduation party ideas - Gifts And Favors Ideas
best friend graduation gift ideas image
Q. I'm pretty much clueless. We're both seniors and we've been
best friends since 7th grade. Does anyone have any sort of ideas?
I'm making a scrapbook for her for her graduation gift, so I'm
pretty much open to anything other than that. Thanks!

You could make a theme basket. For Instance, go buy a popcorn bucket from like Blockbusters, and then go to the dollar tree and buy a couple of her favorite candies, buy her favorite movie or another movie you heard was good, you could stick a gift card or picture frame of you two in there, a neckalace, a ring, ect. it will all fit!!

How to make unique wind chimes?




Allison Lo


I'm making my friend a graduation gift. She really loves wind chimes, so I'm thinking of making her one. I need any kind of advice/how-to's I can get. I don't want just a traditional wind chime, but a really unique one. For example, she has one made out of forks and spoons. Anyone, please help :]


Answer
I don't really know how this would look, but I have an idea in my head.....

Go to a thrift store and buy an old ceramic tea pot and a few cups and saucers. You could use the tea pot as the "base" (for lack of a better word) and then possibly (carefully) crack the saucers and cups into smaller pieces and use them for the chimes on the end of strings.....or you even do the same thing (without the cracking) using a children's tea set.

I've also seen wind chimes made from tile (as in flooring tile) you can get the bigger pieces and break them up, or you can get the smaller squares that they use for accents, or do a combination of both. Of course, what you use for the main piece at the top would be up to you.

Basically what I would do is just go on a shopping spree at a thrift store (they have some of the most wonderful finds for crafts there), buy a whole collection of things, take it home, and see what you come up with. No matter what you make she's going to dearly love it because it came from the heart. Homemade gifts are always a thousand times better than anything you buy. Good luck.

What are good things to give a 9 year old girl for a Christmas gift donation?

best gift ideas for 9-year-old girls image



rahrah


I'm doing a Giving Tree project, and I was assigned a 9 year old girl, and on her wishes list she wrote clothes and an Ipod. There's no way I can afford to give some stranger an Ipod, but I feel like I should give her more than just a new outfit? Any ideas about what she might like?


Answer
If your doing this as a Giving Tree, first make sure that the kid you select is actually the kid your giving to. An Ipod does not seem like a gift that should be given to someone on a giving tree. Most giving trees are for needy kids, so clothes would be first on the list. Maybe a few stuffed animals would also make her day. There are a ton of hand-held games

What is a good idea for a gift for someone that volunteers as a subject for a psychological report?




ceesbuve


I want to give, as a token of gratitude, something to this young female and to these two children, a 9 year old boy and a 7 year old girl, who will help me prepare a psychological report posing as subjects. They will be asked to perform several psychological tests as well as to fill out questionnaires and forms with intimate and maybe critical personal information. They are assured that this information will be kept confidential although it will be supervised, and I will make sure that this report actually ends up with them.


Answer
I had to do this when I first started grad school. I administered a lengthy cognitive test to a 9 year old and had to write a report. Before the test, I did a quick interview and discovered that the little girl really liked art, so I got her a little art case with crayons, pencils, paints, and pastels. So, maybe you can ask the boy and girl what they like and what their hobbies are. It will help you build rapport and you'll get some gift ideas too.

best man gift ideas australia image






I am going to japan in june/july for 11 days i am going to stay with a host family which may or may not have kids of any age so even though it isn't a long trip i want to bring enough to make a good impression. i'm looking for gift ideas for men, women, teens, children, and people i meet. I live in CA near San Francisco and and have already heard about touristy things like magnets and post cards. i'm look for creative things that would be fun for someone to get


Answer
Dude, Japanese people in my experience love their merchandise. You live in an iconic area so I'm sure you can get something reflective of where you live. Caps,shirts(can be dangerous as you don't know their size), calenders or even images of where you live. You could try some 49ers merchandise. Japanese also love icons of the world so maybe a model of the golden gate bridge may be ideal or a snow globe of it.
I'm going to stay at a host family too and from Australia. Bringing boomerangs, koala pushes and wombat in a can(it's just a stuffed wombat in soup can, just bringing some Aussie humor).

best man wedding gift ideas image



Dianna B


While cleaning out my parents home I came across 2 handcarved bookends, made in Mexico, each one in the shape of a man wearing a sombrero and taking a siesta. They were a wedding gift to my parents so they are approximately 80 years old. The only color on the carvings is the paint used to color the serapes the men wear, and I believe the rest of the wood has been lightly stained. I would like to clean them - gently - and bring up the color a little bit, but I have no idea how do to it. Can anyone help?


Answer
I would take them somewhere and have them cleaned. I wouldn't risk ruining such keep sakes.
