OH CRAP! I need her Christmas present TODAY! Help me!

[watersnowdirt]

Maybe a Hostess snack food product. Then you could say, "Honey, I got you a ring.................ding."

Too freakin funny. Iceman, you're a classy dood. I love it!!!


And Rev, I know - such a party pooper today. Don't give up on me yet, I did post some skin (ok, not much, I know) in the photo thread. Doesn't that count for something?

And I agree with Lynx - no matching scarf and gloves!

Well, what if you up the ante and throw in a hat?

[Keoni]

Mismatched scarf and gloves?

playing off of watersnowdirt's suggestion for a massage coupon...

Create your own coupon book for her, with coupons like:
automatic argument ender
viewing of a "chick flick" movie
sensual massage
you doing all the house chores for a week
night out with the girls

It's cheap and pretty easy and she'll be cashing them in all year long.

Hat, scarf, gloves, earmuffs, leg warmers and a yellow beet.

She will be putty in your hands.

Back off, rodent!

ok fine - put in a headband and you're good to go.

Snow slider - good suggestions. Love it. Any woman will be stoked.

Don't forget the ring ding. That's a critical part of this package (though if you toss in a red beet alongside the yellow beet, you can forgo the Hostess treat.)

Wow. Really? I was thinking "off the cheese scale."

Maybe this is why guys suck at this.

well, if i had ever given that to either of my prievious two girfriends i would have recived a swift knee to the nuts and a simultanioous laugh to the face. Then have to endure months of ridicule in front of her friends.

they were both pretty harsh ladies though

You can actually buy a book just like that, already made. I bought one of those once, my bf and I broke up before he got to use many of them - I think he used the "choice of movie" one.

Feh on Victoria's Secret. Ill fitting, poorly made (fall apart quickly), not very comfortable. And to whoever suggested a scarf with matching gloves? That's fine, for your Aunt. And, while I'd love a stocking full of smarties and Neccos (my favorite candy!), candy is never a good way to go. It only leads to you having to hear, for about a month, how fat she feels and/or looks.

If you're in a hurry - what girl wouldn't love a well made puffy? Burton makes a great one ($$$), Old Navy (thanks Blurred) makes a really cute one and it's only $40. If she's a triathlete, get her great wicking clothing.

Or, depending on how close you guys are...that little blue box is always nice. Tiffany's makes a really cute silver link bracelet with a heart charm that dangles and it's not very expensive, but full of sentimental value. Especially if you have the heart engraved.

I don't know, Cornhole, but if any of you are shopping for me, I know I could use one of these in my lonely mountain town:

[watersnowdirt]

I think could be cool, if done right. I'd rephrase some of Snow Slider's pages to be a bit less cheesy, and do things like - dinner at her favorite restaurant, a foot massage (nix on the sensual massage - it just sounds creepy depending on who you are), etc.

And accompanied by something in a blue Tiffany box, you're set.

Rev - the UPS man will be there shortly. We all chipped in.

i had pegged you as more of a pez girl. dont ask me why.

[Cornholio]

I am a gift-buying goddess.

This is why we pay her the big bucks.

HomerJ's puffy suggestion has been the wiener so far, WSD probably sealed it.

I'm not really a "love coupon" kind of guy, she's not really a "love coupon" kind of girl. I think.

[Keoni]

So far we have:
beets, Hostess snak food and cheese. Throw in a beef stick and ya got, Hickory Farms

Heart Rate Monitor or a Pedometer!

"We created this item to help tired people relax," said Makoto Igarashi, Trane's managing director.

You need help "relaxing," Rev?

[watersnowdirt]

Let's just recap to be sure you don't mess it up. Your gift shouldinclude:

A matching hat and scarf (and earmuffs, if you're feeling spendy)
Necco wafers
One yellow beet
One package of Hostess Ring Dings.


She's a lucky, lucky girl. Sigh.

[snow_slider]

Yeah, I guess I could see the coupon thing as cheesy, but hey, I've been called WAY worse that cheesy before.

Maybe combining the coupon book with the Ring Dings would balance things out?

[iceman]

The more I think about it, the more convinced I am that Ring Dings are the right answer. I mean, a package of Ho Ho's might be taken the wrong way.
