Need ideas for $10 gift

[DJT]

20 Questions -- It is a small handheld game that sells for under $10. You think of an item (the girls on the hockey team thought of "tampon"), the game will ask you questions that you answer. Is it a animal?? etc. It asks you twenty questions trying to figure out what you are thinking. Then it will take a guess....And dang if it didn't figure out tampon!!

I have bought this for a ton of people age 6 to 80 and everyone has enjoyed it!!!! I would say 98% of the time it can figure it out. It is wild.

If you look for it, it is shaped like a ball - no bigger than a tennis ball and is stocked with the little handheld games. Amazon had it for $4.99 - but a little late for that.

I bought one of these on sale for $5.99 at K-Mart on Saturday for the same type game for our family (but gift is supposed to be a $5.00 gift). They also had a Disney version that was $10.99. I would like to have had that one for myself!

Home movie night: Gift card for 1 movie rental at Blockbuster or your local place, in a gift bucket with micro-popcorn, 20oz soda & candy.

We've been doing this for quite a few years with varying prices. This year it's $10-15. I was at Target on BF and got 3 DVDs (Sex in the City, Baby Momma, and Dark Knight) for $12. I'm adding some popcorn to it and that'll be good. Our ages range from 12-70+. We do the trading thing. It was easier to buy gifts before the younger set joined in but it still seems to work out. Usually after it's all over a few of them will make individual trades.

Our first year it was almost all movies or gift cards. We made a rule no more gift cards. If you shop sales you can usually get something good. Our price has run from $10-15 to a high of $25-30. Some popular gifts have been things like tools; Yankee votive candles; soft throw; large soup pot; pound of See's; stuff from Bath & Body works, etc. I usually buy something that I would be happy to end up with.

I don't enjoy getting a gift card but the younger ones do.

Oh, we have that game. It is fun.

A take off on the gift wrap - a stationary gift set. I'm amazed at the number of times I need a piece of stationary to write a note to the teachers at school. Older folks especially still like to write notes.

or thank you cards and a book of stamps.

I went to a store this weekend, they had one of those stone sets that is for making pizza with a cutter in a metal holder and it was 5.99 then bought a jar of pizza sauce, a fun snack and wrapped it up for a nephew. ...
