FOR HIM
  • Dave Chapelle DVD - If you haven't noticed, it's really
    hot right now...What? Yeah! Okay!
  • Sports Tickets - Orlando Magic are actually doing well
  • Video Games - Halo just came out, providing a new
    reason for boys not leave their rooms
  • Any electronic toy - iPod especially! Or you can
    go with a little cheaper MP3 version
  • Watch- Not the cheap Burger King ones, but a
    nice Fossil or Swatch
  • Subscription to Maxim- This should keep him
    entertained for a while


  • FOR HER
  • Jewelry- You can never go wrong with this one, plus
    chandeliers are in right now
  • Personalize it! Girls love personalized frames,
    jewelry boxes, bags, and even underwear.
  • Cool Winter Jackets -Look in Burdines, or Juicy,
    the jackets with light faux fur around the collar
  • iPod works for girls too, they even come in pink
  • You can always go with a chick flick DVD such as
    50 First Dates, Pretty Woman, or Casablanca!


  • 10 Worst Gift Ideas....
    We thought we would also help you in what to avoid this Holiday season

    1. Useless gadgets - An autotmatic jar opener? How lazy can we be? Besides there aren't enough drawers in the kitchen for the automatic mopper, automatic talking cookie jar, and autonomous silver cleaner.
    2.. Do it Yourself Books - Those "Lose Weight in 10 Days", "Become Rich Fast", and "Transform Your Mobile Home into a Mansion", will continue to sit atop the shelves and never be read.
    3. Lingerie Trap - Never buy lingerie for a woman unless she has helped pick it out. If not, you are in serious danger of her looking like a $5 whore.
    4. Don't buy a gift for someone because you want it. They aren't going to give it to you, and that's just selfish.
    5. Repeat Gift Offender - Avoid sending grandma the same gift for three consecutive years. She might notice when she has three of the same picture frames on the desk.
