    I started a similar thread last year on this date, so I suppose I should have dibs on it. :p

    The title is quite self-explanatory, what are you going to give?

    For me, it is:
    Mom is getting a cheapish pair of slippers.
    Dad is getting a Swiss Army Knife. (or some cheap copy :p )
    Sis is getting a symbolic gift of money.
    Bro is getting the RotK EE.

    Most of my relatives get music. Buy a CD, copy it to a DVD, and pass it on. Win-win. ;)

    For mom, me and my dad are making a joint-venture of it. It's still going to be rather expencive. What I really can't say yet.
    Dad will get a book most likely, and I have no idea what to get my brother. A pullover most likely, since eletrical stuff is much cheaper in Denmark than it is here, and he really needs new clothing.

    Wine, cds, DVDs. So long as they tell me what they are after, that's fine. Thinking of presents sucks. Especially when they throw them oput the next day as they're crap. So now I ask them what they want. Takes away surprise maybe, but at least I know they will like the present.
