    lol i totally put off buying gifts just to find out that basically everything here closes around 6pm.

    Well hell now i don't have any gifts for anyone, When do stores normally open today? Its gonna be hell because everyone is going to take gifts back but dammit i can't believe i neglected for so long. Sad thing is, everyone pretty much got me gifts and now i don't got anything! bah!


    Should i give out money?

    I am thinking about going to the ATM and just giving everyone 50$ or 100$. or should i explain and then buy some cool gifts online and get over night shipping?

    I think you should order gifts off the internet, giving money away isn't really very thoughtful. If you wanted to give away money, you should at least give vouchers :).

    good luck!

    Since time is a bit tight I see nothing wrong with giving them money. In my country we give money as Christmas gifts all the time.

    ok, well i got my first gift done. I bought my dad a metal detector. Hes always wanted to go gold panning and he isn't doing to great because hes on oxygen but he still gets around so i think this will motivate him to go out and walk around the park looking for stuff :D

    You could always get gift vouchers at x store for each person - better than straight cash, and then you don't have to bother thinking about presents to buy... :cool:

    I think it's a bit late for suggestions but I'd say bake something (not a fruit cake) money is always okay :p but not personalized at all!

    hell no, gift card is a waste of money. You are forced to buy stuff from a particular store and the value decrease as time go on.

    Do a prepaid visa gift card instead

    Gift cards can be a great gift depending on the store. My nephews loved the itunes gift cards I got for them.

    Living in Vegas has its perks. There were two malls open today (Christmas) for the truly last minute shopper.
