Cheap gift ideas?

Anonymous

Need ideas on what to get my employees- I can only afford to spend about $5 each. They run the gamut from college girl to 60-year-old man, and I hope to keep their gifts all the same. I've done candy-filled mugs before, and last year I gave lotto tickets. Please help- I'm out of ideas! (and don't suggest my baking something- I'm a retail manager and I'm busy at Christmas!) Thanks!

Answer
I keep this on my Palm for ideas. Gleaned from the web.... Hope it will help!!!

Tight budget for Christmas! Any ideas on a cheap but great gift?

Daryn H

Hi guys, this Christmas I'm on a tight budget. I'm wondering if you have any ideas of a cheap but great gift? I don't know if this will help but I am teen so the gift doesn't have to be o so out there!!! I have to shop for 2 little girls, and 18 yr. old brother, and 3 adults aged from 30-45.

Thanx!

Answer
FOR THE 3 ADULTS, SOME IDEAS WOULD BE:

1. Scented candles (you can get 3 different scented candles and put them in a nice gift bag) go to the dollar store and this gift can be under $7
2. If any of the adults are males who fish, you can get a tackle box and put some lures and hooks in there (total=$20-$30)
3. Seasonal Fruits - Go to your local market and buy some nice fruits that are in season and then go to the dollar store and get a nice basket or a Christmas Tin and nicely arrange the fruit -- Great gift for under $10
4. Christmas Dishes -- You can get a set of nice Christmas dishes at Target or Wal Mart for under $35

GIFT IDEAS FOT YOUR 18 YR OLD BROTHER
1. A Frame - Get a frame at any retailer -- you can find a nice one for under $10 and then put a picture of you and your brother together when you were young in the frame
2. 18 year olds love to watch movies and video games -- check out a gift card from Blockbuster
3. If he is 18 and in college in a dorm or out in his own part, try making him a bachelor kit -- we did this for a friend of mine when he moved out and it went over well......get a large basket and fill it with all of the stuff he is going to use when he is on his own without his mom to take care of him -- paper plates, paper towels, cleaners, a few cans of sodas, a few cans of chef boyrdee ravioli ---this is very cheap to do and it is a funny gift that usually causes some great laughter between the two fo you and it will all be stuff he needs and will use

GIFT IDEAS FOR THE LITTLE GIRLS
1. Why don't you go to a retailer or dollar store and buy them a stocking and then stuff it with a chirstmas ornament and a bby doll (you can get both items at a dollar store for $3-$5)
2. Little girls love to dress up usually -- go to the hairbow aisle of any retailer and buy them each 3 or 4 cute little hairbows and barettes -- this won't cost you more than $10

Gift Ideas?

I've been going out with this guy for a few weeks now and his birthday is coming up.
Art is sort of my 'thing' and I told him that I wanted to make him something. I was thinking of making him a painting, though I am not sure of what I would paint. Though he plays guitar and I was thinking of maybe finding a cheap acoustic and painting that for him. Any other ideas or suggestions?
so what I've heard so far is that people think that the guitar idea is good. But would it be too much?
How about a small landscape painting (possibly around 5'' x 7'')?
A while ago (before we were dating) I drew him a portrait which he really liked. What if I took that drawing I made and painted it? Would that be thoughtful or just creepy?

Answer
Depending on the kind of paintings that you do, you could also be creative and just paint a canvas with acrylics using images of guitars, strings, notes, music, etc. Since you've only gone out for a couple of weeks, the idea is great but your time and thoughts are also of great value. I have a very successful artist friend that goes to Goodwill and buys those pictures on canvas and just paints over them. It's a cheap way to get materials. Her smallest paintings are 3' X3.' She sells them for $$$$. I'd save the best of what you can do for on down the road as the relationship develops. I use to do art for people and felt kind of hurt when they threw it out after we stopped dating or being friends.

What would be a great gift for someone who is going into the armed forces?

great gift ideas that are cheap image

Grey Foxx

I have a friend who is 21 years old and he is going into the Army. We are having a going away party for him, and I want to get him a gift. What is something that would be a great gift for him? Unfortunately he all ready has a X-box 360, PlayStation 3 And the Wii, Vitamins also sounds Great. Good running shoes, perhaps. He won't really need money, they give him everything he needs there and when he gets out of basic training he'll have a few grand saved up. Right?

What do you think? Please Help!

Answer
A young man in an army perhaps needs and misses nothing more than his family. Which is why, I think giving him a good family photo album is a nice idea. So, why don’t you give a nice pocket photo book to him? It’s easy, cheap, and priceless. Visit Smilebooks to know more about it. Good luck.

What are some good gift ideas for a pollyanna gift game christmas party?

Answer
Christmas is the time of year when many families spend more money than they have to create a holiday to remember for their children. With the economy in a downward spiral, saving where you can is important. Christmas is a time of giving, and this is a perfect chance to teach your children to give back.

Giving back

There are many families that are in worse economic shape than you are. Taking the family to a soup kitchen to volunteer during the holiday season will help make it memorable for everyone. It will also help your children appreciate what they have much more.
Thrift and consignment stores

Shopping at thrift stores you can find many items that can be the perfect gift for your child. Most items are gently used and look brand new. You may find the occasional new item that still has the tag on. Starting in these stores is the perfect way to find a multitude of gifts at a fraction of the cost.

Dollar stores

Looking at stores such as the Dollar Store or Five Below you can find some great gifts at a cheap price. Purchasing several of these types of gifts can help fill under the tree and stockings. This can help save money while still making Christmas look plentiful.

Pollyanna

If you have a large family buying many gifts can be daunting. A fantastic way to save money is to do a Pollyanna gift exchange. This is basically putting everyone’s name in a hat and drawing a name of one person to purchase a gift. This will save an enormous amount of money. Instead of buying gifts for ten people you will only be buying for one person.

Cut your gift list

When economic times are good, giving to everyone can make one feel wonderful. Now may be the time to take a look at the list of people you normally give gifts to and decide who you can eliminate from gift giving. This will probably be the hardest part to do as you don’t want to offend anyone. You can choose to give a nice Christmas card instead. In these times it is necessary.

The important thing to remember is Christmas is a time to enjoy your family and appreciate your loved ones. While it may be a challenge for children to understand making a memorable Christmas does not mean you have to spend a lot of money.
