    Boooorrrringggg....

    I could care less about all that girly stuff. I'd want a guy to get me a present that was meaningful, something that I could tell he obviously put some thought into.

    Damn girl--we're not mind readers. Here's how we put thought into the gifts we give:

    Guy asks girl what she wants; girl tells guy what she wants; guy buys present the girl asks for; both are happy because girl did not have to get upset at guy for not "knowing" intuitively what to get her.

    Otherwise you get purfume or jewelry.

    hmmm... i'm still not sure of this, but i am thinking maybe i could give figurines or cute little stuffs like cellphone accessories or keychains to my friends... and am gonna prepare candies/sweets for the kids who'll visit in our house... for my family, i am still thinking wat can i give to each of them.. well, aside from sharing the christmas moment and express my love to my family, i wanted to giv them a xmas present this year.. coz last year, i wasn't able to giv anything to them, u know..something that's useful to them/they want... since that i am working right now, maybe i contribute something for i guess, on our food or give them a xmas present they want... as long as it is affordable..:D

    I am not a christian so i dont really celebrate Christmas in the way you guys do it but IMHO give someone Cash or a gift card of some value and let them get what they want. That is the best advice you can get from someone :D. Everyone will be happy and you wont have to worry about if she likes the gift or not:D

    Give them a gift card of Target, JC penny, Foley's(Macy's), Walmart, Some eating out place or here is the best one from me

    VISA gift card of $XXXX Value or whatever you think is right and affordable by you

    Haha, no one has to be a mind reader. But I don't want the standard jewelry and perfume routine. If you don't know your girlfriend well enough to think of a creative, meaningful gift than you've got problems :p Hey, some girls are happy with that stuff. I'm just not one of them, unless that's what I asked for.

    @ denise, jewelry can be good if its something really special... no? What if your bf bought u the most expensive heart shaped necklace to tell you he loves you so much, with a diamond or w/e .... youd be like "omg you idealess bastard, how dare you"? :p

    Anyway, a good present is one that can be kept forever. ;) Perfume definetly doenst cut it. Id give perfume to someone not too important, my gf, definetly not....

    Yeah, jewelry can be special. But it's not about the money.
