Need opinions on Christmas Gift for my Sister & her Fiance!
So I was thinking about getting her the Christmas Vacation Moose Mugs.
My question is, do I do the
Punch Bowl Set
(I'd probably get the 6 mugs to go with the bowl.)
or
Do I just get her 6 mugs
Obviously I think the full set is cute, but practically, the bowl is bulky and chances are she'll be pouring mixed drinks or eggnog directly into the mugs. I just don't see the bowl being useful and the mugs are funny enough on their own.
Opinions?

To me this is the start of a white elephant gift. If my brother and sister in law gave me that I would not be happy at all. It is funny. Unless she collects reindeer, you can do better.

See, if my sister got me this I would laugh my you know what off and I would totally look forward to breaking out those mugs year after year.
I do think the whole set is cute, but I think the mugs by themselves are just fine!

I like them, but I'm a huge fan of the Vacation movies.
I'd love just the mugs. And I'd use them every year

While I think they are cute I would never have a spot to store them....even the mugs take up a ton of space because of the antlers.

Re: Need opinions on Christmas Gift for my Sister & her Fiance!
My sister would get a kick out of this because she is the BIGGEST fan of all the vacation movies. She finds some way to quote the movies daily 
But, that would be her gag gift, I better have a sentimental little something up my sleeve to give her or else....
My opinion, I'd get the whole set. I'm big into matchy things & complete sets.

The full set, definitely.
She'd probably find a way to use it!!
I just saw on Amazon they have a set where the antlers remove for storage.

That would be perfect. This is the only thing that would stop me from getting the whole set.
