Ok, I have a dilema and maybe i can help out some of you as well. I need some idea's for a xmas gift but the limit for spending (this is for a family drawning, not parents) is $25. If you notice the rig in the sig, I usually do not go cheap with tech stuff but i need to now. So for me and anyone else that needs I need some idea's of a gift for me for $25 that can be bought at a Best Buy or Walmart, etc....(the one that will be buying it live in Nebraska). I would recommend that it be obtainable from a retail store instead of online cuz i am not sure how well that will go over.

Thx.
 
The simplest things are often the best gifts.

I recommend a thick hardcover book on what you think your family will benefit most.

I gave my uncle a 1,000 page technical computer book for his new repair job.
I gave my dad the best guide and secrets to landscaping and gardening for his house projects.
I gave my mom a 800 page book on medical and herbal knowledge base for her concern on health.

I recommend spending time with your loved ones.

I spent time with my mom on a dinner at Olive's Garden and talked about many things.
I took the time to play with my nieces over a game of Jenga and such.
I spent time with my grandma and discussed over things about my future and her future.

I recommend providing a service.

I fixed my cousin's computer and made it fast and smooth. :p
I helped my neighbor shovel the snow off their drive way.
I helped my mom bake apple pie and shop for food.

If anything, give them something - more of a symbol - that reminds you of them.

Sounds good but kind of wierd for a family drawing. I vote for some dvd that pretty much everyone likes
 
Ah, I didn't understand what you meant by "drawning" as it said earlier. :p

DVD sounds good. Or a family game (even though that can be lame :p).

One thing to keep in mind is that I graduated college 2 years ago and live 1/2 way across the country from my family. The gift is for me from anotehr family member. Anyway thanks for the idea's. DVD is not bad, but the problem is i do not know what to get for a DVD, and when i want it its faster to go to bittorrent and download it.

I want some Hardware.........
 
or get them Apples to Apples. Then everyone can play it at the same time and you'll have a blast. Great game for everybody, it can be as innocent or "mature" as you like :D
