| Lots of homemade items can be used. You can make homemade cookies/brownies etc and put them on a decorative christmas plate (plastic/paper or the dollar store sells the glass for $1) wrap it in cellophane, You can get a jar from the $1 store and make homemade hot chocolate there are tons and tons of recipesfor this online. You can buy mini coffee bags or a gift card for a coffee store even if its just a free cup and get a mini thermosor mug and wrap it with the clear cellophane and a bow. You can buy christmas dvd's or christmas music and wrap them and find a cute saying online to go with it. Buy gift cards and put a cute saying with them, or even a bottle of wine or chamagne or something like that is always thoughtful. If its mostly younger kids egg nog and cookies or apple cider and cake. |

| If you're good at crafts, consider making your relatives gifts like wall hangings; table runners; toys; Christmas ornaments; or knitted hats, scarves, sweaters, and mittens. |

| The past 2 years my family has stopped exchanging gifts and give the amount we would have spent to our favorite charity or to a food shelf. We still bring small stocking stuffer items and play games for them.X-mas is about giving and the feeling of helping someone who really needs it and having fun with your family is more fulfilling than exchanging gifts. |

| Gift cards will do any day anytime. And with the way our economy has been, a lot of stores with good products at discounted prices have sprung up. There are so many bargains out there on quality products.You can send me an e-mail for online stores with bargains.Ada Ohttp://www.mallveritas.com |
