Anybody have any good ideas for gifts that you give to admins, girlfriends of friends,etc?

I've got 6 coworkers, 3 friend-girlfriends, 2 admins, and a partridge in a pear tree, so I need to keep it reasonable so I dont go broke. I would just donate to USO on their behalf, but not sure if donations are appropriate? Any help is appreciated!

Run down to Sligers Produce in Brownwood. I hear they put together nice fruit baskets of different sizes and prices.

Keeps the co-workers from comparing gifts. I'm not sure what you should get for the partridge in a pear tree.;)

Bath & Body gift certificates for your friends that are girls.

Another thing you could look into are gift certificates at massage schools. Everyone needs a massage! I bet a lot of people don't know they can go into those schools and get an hour massage for as low as $35!!!! (Prices vary depending on the school)
They have to practice on someone before they can get their license. Sometimes you get lucky and get someone who is really good at what they do.

You can never go wrong with alcoholic beverages.

I've never given my friends' girlfriends anything for Christmas. That's what their boyfriend is for.

Good point, I think I will remind my daughter of that when she comes up with a list of her girlfriends to buy for.:thinking:

There's a group of about 5 of us friends that are all very close, and are all in long term relationships or married. I think its nice to remember the friends' special ladies, that's all.

You are a much nicer person than me and/or crzyjournalist03.

hahaha, reminds me of a poster, not mentioning any names (ahhmmdist303apastplayer) that used to break up with girls prior to December - it was easier on his budget. :D
