Xmas Pressies for family

memphis · 04-12-2002 2:53pm #1

I'm really stuck for ideas this year.
I was wondering if anyone could throw a few ideas in this direction.

We're talking bout buying pressies for the following:

1.My folks, who are in their late 50's.

2.My bro, who is bout 25, and unmarried, big into golf, music, and sport.

3.My sis, aged bout 29/30, who has moved into a new apartment, was thinking of getting her something for her new place, any ideas??

As I'm a poor student, and not working part time, my budget is low, so please keep this in mind.

All ideas, good, bad, or otherwise are appreciated.

Thanks in advance!!!

try slapping some sense into your brother, you should be able to get him to stop playing golf...
he'll thank you for it one day

Golf is a strange game unless of course you've ever played it. Then it becomes an even stranger game.

Depending on where they're from get a picture of their home town in Ireland and frame it!

U2's greatest hits DVD

Get her a big dreamcatcher. They're cool

Thanks for all the replies, but I'm looking for pressie ideas, not smart comments about my family, thank you!!!!

My sis is 29, so what if I got it wrong, besides 30 is just one number more!

My bro only recently started playing golf, its meant to be a big sociel thing, he has meet many of his clients playing golf (he's a manager of some research lab).

As for getting my bro a DVD, he hasn't got a dvd player!!! And if ya meant cd he already has both the best of the 80's and 90's by U2.

As for my sis, what the hell is a dreamcatcher???

Please keep in mind that I'm a student so budgets are low, in the €20 - €30 area!!!!

a dreamcatcher is a small netlike object you hang over your bed
judging by the name...i'd say it catches dreams...though i've never really had it work (although i didn't Stop dreaming after i got one...so it must be doing something right)

if you've never heard of it...its probably not a big interest of hers, but its only christmas..so it doesn't have to mean anything

as for your brother, get him the U2 dvd AND a DVD player..that'd be nice wouldn't it?

and i'm kinda out of ideas...so just give your parents a monkey...everyone likes monkeys

AS I've said already money is a problem, I can hardy afford to buy a DVD, not to mind say a DVD player!

As for a dreamcatcher, I've never heard of anything so daft in my life!!
Thanks for the suggestion though!!!!
