ok..so my husband an i are broke this year for christmas due to unforseen bills. so we decided to make baskets for family members this year.. in the baskets we put a fleece blanket, a sauce gift set, a jar with stuff in it to make their own chili, box of lindt chocolates, a tree ornament, a candle, a portable cell phone charger, some mugs and some tangerines! would you like this as a gift..or does it suck..be honest..thanks merry christmas to all
--------------------
I would keep my money and perhaps invite them all over for a potluck dinner. I would put my own immediate family FIRST this year. Due to unforseen bills,and saying you are broke,means exactly that YOU ARE BROKE.so don't give to others this year,just have the potluck,do you realize how much you would be spending on those baskets? How many bills could you cover with the money those would cost,or how much in groceries would that buy for your own family to eat? I am sorry but I do NOT think buying Lindt chocolates for someone else when my own family is in need would be a good thing to do. I would be more than grateful to get a gift like you are talking about,but would feel really bad if I knew they needed the money for themselves and spent it on a gift basket for me,I would really feel terrible and hopefully your own family would feel the same. Keep the money and pay your own bills this year.
