Share your gift ideas, because I am a bit stumped.
2 ceramics from anna collete hunt
Unsure of the rest of my family but it’s become a running gaga to get my mom the cheesiest custom-printed throw blanket we can think of. This year’s is a horribly cropped screenshot of a text conversation we had a while ago about buying groceries from Dollar General
Sounds to me like you’ve got it covered.
Smoked cheeses.
I use a strategy for some gifts which I call “luxury consumables”. Get someone something that they will use up (food, cheese, chocolate, olive oil, soap, booze, tea, etc) but that’s a bit nicer than they would get for themselves. If you can afford that!
For instance, flavored oil and vinegar for the chef. Fancy chocolate for… everyone. And in this case, smoked cheese! Sounds tasty AF.
Hell yeah this has been my tactic too. My family had stopped making the habit of gifting because of the unnecessary gifts, and so this is a great way to ensure they’ll actually use the gift.
We stopped doing gift exchanges. We were just getting things we didn’t want. Ymmv, that doesn’t work in all families.
The joy of my presence.
Yeah that’s all I can afford this year !

Drugs and alcohol
What kinda drugs tho??
1 kg of cocaine
I looked up how much that would cost out of curiosity and it really fluctuates based on where you live apparently. $1500-$50000
I did not realize you were made of money! 🤑🤑🤑
Jones’ Soda brand - Mary Jones THC soda.
I live in Colorado, so generally some unusual form of weed for those who enjoy that. A dispensary near me has THC chocolate truffles, those usually go over well.

Sharing in a peanut butter pie from Costco would be a nice gift.
In the parking lot of course
y’all can borrow my basement if it’s too hot outside.
Thanks bro, that’s real nice of you
Where else would one eat pie?!
Just bring your own fork this time. I’m not sharing again.
I saw that post too!
Bathing salts, a chair cushion, a calendar, a cooking book, slippers and some chocolate.
It all sounds random but what makes them good presents is that I have reason to believe my family actually wants those things.
That said, I think next time I’ll be giving less thought into it because apparently half my family would like to stop with the presents cause they feel like they don’t need more shit and also don’t like being obligated to buy stuff for other people. Fair enough, but if it’s small things I still like gifting stuff.
Try with home decor, a plant or a good lamp is always a good gift.
Home decor may depend on your recipient. Some people like a certain style and want their decor to fit it. You may think that it is the type of lamp they like but it might mess with their ambiance.
A few months ago, my brother and I were playing online but we communicated through chat instead of talking because he didn’t have a headset. I’m hoping he still doesn’t have a headset because that’s what I got him.
For my sister, compression socks (she’s a runner), a box of toilet paper (how is she always running out?!), and some shirts with her business logo on them For my niece, we’re going to see the Nutcracker and going ice skating For my dad, books
(she’s a runner)
toilet paper (how is she always running out?!)
You included a question mark, but I feel like you already answered your question…
Nice socks are a banger gift. I’ve gifted Smartwool socks, and also some hand knit thick cozy ones. Always a hit.
Got my husband a light for his desk that is in the shape of the bon fire spawn/save point in the Dark Souls series. It’s in one of those clear resin blocks and it glows. Then we’re going to a bougie ass resort for a 2 day stay cation where he doesn’t have to worry about anything!
Got one of my besties who enjoys D&D a bottle opener called “Tool of Opening”, a dunce cap for his dice when they disappoint him, and a t-shirt that says: “Lawful in the Streets; Chaotic in the Sheets”. Basically a bunch of little kitschy things based on his interests.
Another bestie is (probably) getting some kinda Critical Role merchandise. Maybe a wooden sign for his room that says “Entering Dave’s Dungeon Roll for Initiative”. Still deciding on him.
When we sold our house, I opened investment accounts for my niece and 2 nephews, and I just throw money in there for every birthday/Christmas. As infants/toddlers they’re going to be too young to appreciate it for a while, but I grew up bouncing between “lower class” and “lower middle class” so I want them to have more opportunities starting out than I did. They’ll appreciate it one day. I hope.
Dang, you’re good
Olive oil with trums, about 10$ for a bottle and you onley need so little to make any dish more exciting

I do secret Santa with my family so I only have to get my cousin a gift. He built a race car in the past year so I had a guy on fiverr make artwork of it and then had it printed and framed
