Christmas List Ideas, 2013?

Maggie

I really don't now what I want for Christmas and everyone is bugging me about it so they can shop early. I'm a 14 year old girl, if that helps. I have a few things but I don't know if I really want them or not and plus I might change my mind. Anyway here it is.
-Grey Vans
-Our Moment Perfume
-White Converse
Brown Riding Boots
-Onesie from One Piece
-Black Combat Boots
Clothes from American Eagle, Charlotte Russe etc.
-Urban Decay Naked 2 Platte
- Cruiser Beach Bike
I also want a MacBook but I don't think my parents want to spend $1000 on me because there are 4 other kids in my family. I heard you could get some for cheap on eBay but I don't want a used computer.
Don't think I'm getting all this from my parents, I'm also getting some from my Grandparents and other family members its just a combined list.

Answer
Since you asked for the UD Naked 2 palette you could look online at Sephora & Ulta for other little makeup gifts - the Sephora Favorites collection is especially great! They have huge samplers of mascaras, lip products, etc. and you get to try a lot of new brands.
I recently got a new pair of riding boots and asked for some leg warmers or knee-high socks to have peeking out of the top of my boots - it looks super cute
Jewelry-wise, midi rings and stackable bracelets are in. You can find them at Forever 21, PacSun, Brandy Melville, Nordstroms etc. If you're looking more high end there's a Pandora charm bracelet or rings, and Fossil has some really cute necklaces.
A new coat or some cute scarves
Nail polish, body lotions and scrubs, face masks
Any new electronics you might want - if a MacBook is too expensive maybe a tablet or a cheaper laptop. There are supposed to be a lot of good Black Friday deals on laptops
Instead of just the one moment perfume you could ask for a gift set of it, if they make any (usually come with lotions and a rollerball or something like that)

I hope this helps!

Christmas gifts 2013?

meghan

Top 15 things a teen (13) year old would want for Christmas 2013! please I need help!!

Answer
Yikes.. That's not too much information!

1. New phone (iPhone, Samsung, etc.) http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=cell+phone&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Acell+phone

2. Stuff for their room? New bedspread, pillows.. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_kk_1?rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Abedroom&keywords=bedroom&ie=UTF8&qid=1384402909

3. Makeup? http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=makeup

4. Hair stuff, nice shampoo/conditioner. http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=a9_asi_1?rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Ashampoo+conditioner&keywords=shampoo+conditioner&ie=UTF8&qid=1384402936 I SUGGEST PAUL MITCHELL TEA SHAMPOO OR BEDHEAD.

5. Headphones (Nice ones.) http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_nr_p_72_0?rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Aheadphones%2Cp_72%3A2661618011&keywords=headphones&ie=UTF8&qid=1384402979&rnid=2661617011

6. New clothes, some sites for this: forever21.com etsy.com polyvore.com (Look at create for some cute clothes. There's great stuff there!)

7. New animal..??

8. New Laptop.

That's all I got, hope I helped.

My personal wants

9. Bow and Arrow, you can think about it, if the thirteen year old likes the idea, they need to pick out the type of bow they would feel the most comfortable shooting, and some target practices.

10. Punching bags, totally sounds different but it takes out my stress. I need a new one, but some people should start out with http://www.amazon.com/Everlast-Style-Training-Gloves-Black/dp/B000JF6LUE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1384403233&sr=8-1&keywords=boxing

Everlast is a great company for boxing, from my personal experience. I do suggest a hanging one, instead of one on the floor. Unless you can try putting water or sand into it, to hold it down better. But otherwise, hanging is the way to go, if you have short enough ceilings (I have to use upstairs for this, unfortunately.)

Hope I helped!

Business Ideas for 2013?

Nelson

Hello! I would like to start my own Business and want some ideas. Thanks!

P.s- A home-based business would be best.

Answer
Best way is to find business that has products/services you have a interest in. Be sure to do research on the company you are interested in (how long in business, compensation plan, startup costs, etc.). Npros website (npros.com) has a directory of home based businesses. Not every company is listed, just those that registered but it has alot of info.

I decided to have a home-based business in the gift basket area as that was a interest I had for a long time. Made my own baskets for years. The company has a residual income plan which I find beneficial. You can check all details on my website (listed below).

Hope this helps.

Cheap christmas present ideas for fiances grandma?

best gift ideas 2013 image

Sam

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

Answer
If she bakes make her some homemade extracts.

http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_make_vanilla_extract/
http://the2seasons.com/2013/06/17/make-your-own-lemon-extract/
http://community.kingarthurflour.com/content/making-your-own-extracts-almond-lemon-orange-vanilla

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

Christmas Gift Ideas for Newly Engaged Couple?

Miss Olivi

A close family member got engaged this year. What are some good Christmas gift ideas? Should I get them a joint gift or separate ones? The wedding is next year (in 2013) so they're going to have bridal showers, etc. and I know they'll get tons of house things and wedding gifts.

I do know that some family members haven't been taking their engagement very seriously (mainly just due to age), so I'd like to get them something that says I'm supportive of their marriage, etc.

Any ideas?

Answer
You could try to get them a wedding planning book/magazine, no one usually buys them for a couple.

I'd say other than that get them a gift voucher at a nice restaurant so they can go out together, make sure to attach a card congratulating them and offering support.

How do you fall out of love with someone?

juliejcc

I am having such a hard time getting over a man who I consider to be my one true love. Could people please give me suggestions or ideas of some of the methods they have used that worked for them to help them fall out of love and move on with their lives after their most painful break ups?

Answer
It's a cliche, but time helps - just filling it in with productive and fun things. You don't have to go out flirting at bars right away, unless that's what you find fun.

What I did was spend time with my friends and family as much as possible. I also talked about how I felt with trusted friends and soon began to feel better (a diary was also very helpful for things I felt I couldn't say). Resting and gentle, fun exercise like a walk somewhere in nature such as a beach (or better yet a holiday) will lift your spirits.

Immediately though, get rid of presents and gifts your ex gave you, and remove photos from online accounts and photo albums. You don't have to destroy photos or gifts, just put them somewhere out of sight. Also, delete their email address, phone number and online friend links from your online accounts if you are not tied to them financially or with children.

If you feel angry because perhaps the relationship ended in a bad way from their side, don't resort to being petty such as sending nasty texts, visiting their house to harass them or their family members, or nasty messages online, or calling in a weird voice or making up reasons to.

This next while should be about showing kindness and grace toward friends and family who care for you, and your own personal growth and change. So the last thing you can do soon or immediately is a shopping trip (if you can), or some pampering at home, combined with some new goals for 2013.

It will take time, but you will emerge a better person for addressing your feelings with grace and kindness. If the man is nasty to you or people close to you, that will help you get over him all the more, showing you that you deserve better, because you're dealing with the same situation in a much better way. As a rough guess, a year for each year you were with him will be how long it takes if you were closely involved.

You can do it!

Does a bridal showers theme NEED to correspond with the theme of the wedding?

best gift ideas 2013 image

mCv

This will be my very first time planning a bridal shower. It actually isn't till next may 2013, but when the bride told me that she wanted the wedding theme to be a barn wedding with sunflowers...usually I have ideas about stuff like this but sunflowers? They are beautiful flowers but to me, but can over power other flowers and don't go very well with other colors besides reds, oranges, blues, and purples. Which by the way are all colors the bride hates. I'm wondering if the theme of the wedding should be the theme of the bridal shower? Thank you!

Answer
The theme of a bridal shower actually has nothing to do with the decor. The theme suggests the type of gift the guests bring to the shower. Themes for bridal showers are kitchen shower, bath/spa shower, recipe shower, lingerie shower, etc. The hostess would ask the bride is there are particular things she needs and then a theme is chosen.

How has technology advanced since the 1960s?

Question M

So, how has technology advanced from 1963 to today? What is different and what is the same? What might we see from 2013 to 2063?

Answer
You do not know. We got electric in 1969. Some of the last on rule electrification. I seen my first computer in high school assembly. It was 18 inch's wide, 4 foot long, and 24 tall. In a wooden box. And could do some math. They said it was the future and we had a good laugh at that one. I bought my first hand held calculator in 1969. $20 buy the same today for $2. A days wages for one. In 5th grade a transistor radio was a hot Christmas gift. Few got one. Crews control in a car. Pull out the throttle cable and take your foot of the gas. In the 60s if you were willing to work you could always make out with a shovel and strong back. In truth the world changed in 1969,1970. I was very fortunate. Grandfather was the last blacksmith in the county. Hammer and forge man. And a good one.last of the horse wagons as well in towns, We seen the last of the old days pass away. In 1970 augers did the same work micro switch's for control, earning your way with a shovel died,we took the last mules to the tankage plant. As power skiders could get back in the swamp to log. And the world is changing again. What it will be I have no idea. But in high school I had no idea as well what today would be. I do know that after high school I only had 7 jobs were mules were involved. And we packed in our computers and solar cells to run them. I got those jobs because you young kids are dumb enough to walk behind a mule and don't think they bite at the other end. It has changed that much. From 1969 to today it became the electronic age. When I was in school if a show was on T.V they wanted you to watch. They made sure you could go to some ones house that had a T.V. I remember seeing my first color T.V. The color was so pale. And the sets so sensitive they had to be set in a vibration free area and dark room. But that technology created more jobs than they took. Expanding pros parity. To days technology does away with more jobs than it creates. And that I think is going to be a problem. The best will do well. I am retied now and hope I do not need to care about that. Because my skills are being rapidly out dated. Just like my grandfathers were. He was good,one of the best. But that way died with him. Today your a year out of the job market your skills are old fashion skills.

How does one give an inappropriately generous gift to a subordinate without sending the wrong message?

Q. I worked my secretary to the brink of hospitalization this year, so I feel she deserves to receive an exceptionally charitable Xmas bonus. In addition to a vintage fruitcake, I've also decided to throw in several Taco Bell coupons, good for one free Chalupa with the purchase of 10 Taco Supremes and a large soda.

I know, I know...it's a lot - which leaves me fearing that she may read too much into this obscene display of prodigality and misconstrue this as an act of affection. If that happens, I'll be left with no choice but to terminate her right before the holidays....and I *really* don't feel like breaking in a new lackey...I mean, "assistant" this 2013. Help!
@GreatGoogly: OK, so maybe she's not the most attractive beast at the petting zoo, but calling her a "troll" is a bit harsh.

A. You're in a tight spot. She may even slack off thinking you'll both share that Taco Supreme in front of a purple orange sunset. Disgusting, can't risk it. Hell, give her nothing and make her work Christmas Eve until 10pm, just so she doesn't get any ideas.
