Big Perm Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Curious for anyone to share gifts you've managed for someone thi syear, outside the box! I scored ear wax candles for my wife, all she's been talking about. (I think they are illegal in the Lone Star State) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

the_fliz1 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Every year I get something practical for my wife in an abundance among the other "real " gift things I get her. It started a couple of years ago my wife had tried this really expensive shampoo and conditioner. She loved it but it was like 8 bucks for a bottle so she would never buy it normally. So one of the things I got her was a huge box full of it. I spent like 150 bucks between the conditioner and the shampoo. Then 2 years ago she was always complaining that she could never find her chapstick. She would lose it constantly. So I got her like 60 tubes of chapstick. People at Wal-Mart thought I was nuts. For the life of me I can't think of what I got her last year. This year I'm thinking silverware. She is always complaining that the kids keep loosing forks and spoons, so I will go out and get a plethora of utensils or something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gogo Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I'll admit that we're getting one for Mom, but still, if one more person utters the phrase "digital frame" in my presence, that will be their last act on this earth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EL the Famous Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 For my brother: he is both a HUGE gorillaz fan and collects monkey statues/art. the rest is pretty standard fare, nothing that out of the ordinary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs. Peel Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I'll admit that we're getting one for Mom, but still, if one more person utters the phrase "digital frame" in my presence, that will be their last act on this earth. I was asked for one by three separate family members, and we received one as a gift. Not something I would ever spend my own money on, and it's sort of the bottom of the barrel model with horrible reviews, but I guess it'll be kind of entertaining for a month or so. Still, it's the thought that counts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

austrya Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I ordered super hero capes for my nephew and 2 of my sons. I also got masks. Of course I had to let them try them out before Christmas because they are just sooo cool. This is where I got them and there are pictures here. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=8553946 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
