For those of you feeling the financial crunch.......

But feeling you need to get SOMETHING for your family members this holiday season:

Please share ideas of things on the cheaper side that you are giving.


My list includes my parents, sister, two SIL's, ILs mostly........

I buy for a lot of people. Anyway, I bought movie tickets online for my brother, his wife and their 2 kids and I did the same for my cousin, her husband and their 2 kids. I spent $50 on each family. Usually I spend more than that when I buy individual gifts. I figured they could all go to the movies as a family, although I doubt that will cover popcorn or anything!

Both Macy's and JcPenneys have the Sharper Image digital photo key chain for 25.00 -- it holds up to 60 pics -- great for grandparents showing off their new grandbabies!

We actually got something like this from brookstone this week for a bunch of the family members. I thought it was a great idea.
