A female family member (not immediate family) is having a huge 40th birthday bash this weekend. It is a somewhat formal affair - cocktail attire. I am at a complete loss in terms of what to get for a gift? Money is always nice, but zero thought. I thought a gift basket might be nice filled with a prepaid Visa, Bath&Body works stuff, etc....Any ideas?

I always like to look at what happened the year the Birthday Boy or Girl was born and see if I can come up with something from that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970 For example, you could give her an itunes gift card and recommend the most popular songs from 1970 or suggest Supremes songs since they played their last concert that year. You could buy her a copy of Apollo 13 (same year as the expedition). Or you could see who was born during that year and base your gift on that. I find that giving a gift this way shows that you put some thought into the gift even if you don't necessarily know what the person will like or not. Just make sure to explain why you're giving the gift you're giving. Otherwise, Jimi Hendrix songs or Cash Cab trivia games will just seem odd. Hope this helps! Sara Owner, VendorBar.com
