I love giving gifts. The problem is that I'm a student, don't exactly earn any income. Now I do have money in my savings, and I do get an allowance from my parents for food and stuff (which I have extorted, embezzled, inflated, etc).
Alas, this still doesn't allow me to buy people the gifts that I want to buy them... because if I had all the money in the world (or maybe $5000 more than I do now) I would be buying designer gifts. Wallets, wristlets, other small leather goods.
But I don't have that kind of cash. In addition, I'm buying gifts for people I don't know really well.
I love my family... but liking them and wanting to hang out with them is a whole other ballgame. Yet I still have to buy gifts for these people because (and only because) they will be buying gifts for me.
Now I'm easy. Put a bow on a bottle of booze and I'm happy.
Them... not so much. I've got one cousin who doesn't really drink. (God only knows how we share the same blood).
I've got a couple cousins who are a tad larger than the average bear, so cute clothes won't be so cute on them.
I've got a mom who bitches and moans that she doesn't need/want anything for christmas, then pouts and gets upset when she doesn't get anything.
I need ideas people. I need good gifts under $25. If that's even possible, hook me up!!
