Looking for nice, cheap-ish gift ideas?

Posted by JenStar on November 12, 2004, at 10:28:46

hi all,
I don't have too much $$ to spend this holiday season, and I'd like to make (or buy) some inexpensive gifts for family.

Do y'all have recommendations on gifts ideas that you've received or given? something that's classy & fun & nice (food items OK), just not frightfully pricey.

thanks! :)
JenStar

i made my drum teacher a double chocolate cheesecake and he was impressed. :) said it was sweet. it was! (i licked the batter) it was relatively easy and most people do not make cheesecake, so it's impressive. for a food item though, cheesecake is expensive to make. (i think the ingredients for one cake can cost around $10-$15).

i am a big fan of baking gifts. i remember when i was dating my last boyfriend, his dad turned 70. the family had a tradition of giving X number of something (where X is the person's age) on a birthday. so it was 70 cookies for his dad. fun to make and you get to eat some extras.

whenever a gift is needed
i go to the local iga and pick up a "jelly belly" box..
it has about 10 of 40 flavours..
neatly organized in their our sections..
it is about $20..
their are smaller ones too..
it is always a hit to who ever receives..
