I think one of them might be allergic to some though? Ugh! Haha.</p> <p>I decided to do infused vodka for my brothers-in-law! Pretty affordable and I think it will impress them... hopefully! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-my-christmas-list#post-31625 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 19:24:34 +0000 chopsuey 31625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you have a sanrio near by, I loved hello kitty stuff when I was younger. shiz.

Include nail polish, hair ties, earrings, socks, candies, etc.? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-my-christmas-list#post-31618 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 19:03:38 +0000 amy 31618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is there a local sport teams like triple Aaa or a good college team they like. You can probably get tickets to a game for them for 15 a 20 dollars</p> <p>Can u see? Sewing a cute tote bag is pretty easy for the girls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-my-christmas-list#post-31613 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:46:21 +0000 tequiero21 31613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>sorry, i'm not part of the creative types. but for the girls, i'd just get them $20 gift cards to the shop they like to shop at. especially since those kinda girls have their own tastes. </p> <p>if you can knit scarves or something..... </p> <p>gift cards may be best. hard to buy something not so "cheap" with a smaller budget.</p> <p>maybe go to brookstone to see what kinda gadgets they have under $20? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-with-my-christmas-list#post-31595 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:04:42 +0000 daniellemybelle 31595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're spending Christmas with DH's family this year, so I don't want to just do gift cards like I did last year. I am having a hard time deciding what to get for people though! Yes, I've asked, and no one is being helpful... :(</p> <p>I'm hoping some of you amazing ladies (and gent, haha) have some great suggestions. We are also on a super-mega budget so semi-homemade ideas would be great. Here's who I still need to shop for:</p> <p>- Two brothers-in-law in their late 30s, pretty regular guys, like to look nice, like sports. Budget: $5-15<br /> - 10 yr old girl who has everything and is not easily impressed, loves shopping &amp; clothes. Budget: $15-25<br /> - 13 yr old girl who is easier to please, likes clothes, girly stuff. Budget: $15-25<br /> - 13 yr old boy who has everything and loves sports. Budget $15-25<br /> - 8 yr old boy... not sure what he is into, I know he likes video games but not sure what system(s) he has. $15-25</p> <p>Okay, hit me with your best! Haha, thank you! </p>
