I dont like the whole exchange thing---but for a bunch of reasons I said yes to three parties this year. The first is ladies I play cards with. I know these women the best. I have a choice right now between two gifts: 1) is practical; its a gift basket with a bottle of wine, coasters and two bottle stoppers (corks) with a cards theme. 2) is season, get the yankee candle with the xmas topper and be done. Which is the better gift? Or do you have a better idea. Idea 1 seems corny and 2 seems lame. The next part of my dilemna is two parties where I dont know anyone that will be receiving the gifts (which is admittedly easier). We were told to buy something for someone in our own age/gender category. One is a $15 gift and the other a $20 gift. I am thinking gift cards and an ornament....better ideas? Why do people do this to each other? I would be so much happier just getting together for a few laughs and some egg nog. bah humbug.... and thanks for your help....

Personally, I think #1 sounds like a better gift. As for the others, I don't know your gender or age group, but you could bake some cookies, or something from Target or whatever. A gift card is pretty unoriginal. But then again, people always love money!
