Fanpuck33_ Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 I'm sure grandma and grandpa will love iPods. *heavy, heavy sarcasm* As for my own ideas, I have a hard enough time thinking of good stuff for my own family, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanpuck33_ Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 That's what I'm trying to say, I have no ideas! Well, at least not general ideas. I always trying to get personal gifts, so it's impossible for me to think of something without knowing the person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie_Morenz Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 People.... Gifts are easy habs bath towels. habs coffee Mugs. habs 2006 Calander. habs socks. habs poster. habs playing cards. habs MP3 player (FutureShop) habs Quilt. habs video (Edmonton Montreal outdoor classic) habs toque. habs leather Jacket. Ooopsss sory that is my list for me Some suggestions. Grandparents do like enlarged photos of family framed. Dads use tools (So many on sale at Canadian Tire) Moms like Pointsetta flowers, roses or dry flower arrangements. Sisters like CD's and Cell phone accessories. Brothers, all of the habs stuff listed above. Ideas I have done: Small aircompressor for dad. Small digital picture frame for mom. (Good for both grandparents too) Tickets for a play or cinema. Gift certificate to a fine resteraunt. BOOKS BOOKS BOOKS, puzzles, novels, how to books and magazines. Scrabble board game or a great deck of cards.(Nice ones not cheapies) Hobbies: Aquatic plants for those with aquariums. Needlepoint yarn (Hard to find colours) Balsawood models for grandpa. Foods: Blended coffee from Starbucks/Timothy's/Tim Hortons Dutch Candy or candy from other countries. Bring desert for Christmas. Mmmmm CHERRY CHEESE CAKE! Thats it for me as I can only remember the last 20 years. After all the body checks I took winning Stanley Cups in the 50's I sort of have brain cramps and have lost some of me memories.

Ooopsss sory that is my list for me Don't be sorry! This is the ideal list for everybody! Some people just don't know they want this stuff yet. It's particularly good to get ALL this stuff if you're buying for a Leafs fan. You can give it to him during the intervention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
