There past days have been hectic beyond belief. I knew I shouldn't have waited. Sigh. What are you all getting people for x-mas? I am out of ideas... I have purchases DVD's, kitchen appliances, ps2 games.. sigh. Anybody have any good ideas?

I haven't asked for much as of now, just:
TA: Kingdoms (game-PC)
Unreal Tournament (game-PC)
1 or 2 more fans (appliance)
DVD Player
Worms 2 (game-PC)

And that's it...FOR NOW...

I've pretty much got everything I'm getting

- Book on Papua New Guinean politics
- Dictionary of political figures
- Clock radio (about time, my old one is so stuffed that it's stuck 20 mins slow)
- Roller Coaster Tycoon and it's expansion pack (hopefully, anyway)

I wanna get something for my best friend, too, but I've got no idea what to get her...ugh. Anyone got any ideas?

Or a BIG heart that says "I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Or a nacklace with a charm that says her name!?

hehe, PS2 games are great. DVD's, console and pc games are what friends and relative my age are getting...but what to get the aunts and uncles of the family? One of my friends is moving into a house.. you think a Toaster is good? hehe.. never thought I would seriously consider giving a toaster as a present
 
Nap....grrr...

grim, for older relative, gift certificates are always nice. You could give your friend that's moving into a house one for a home store or something, too.

Um..Icky, what's she like to do? If you *do* wanna go typical girlie, stuffed animals are good, jewlery, etc. (Not "gf"-type jewlery, but maybe a necklace or something, ya know?)

Hehe, I went Christmas shopping yesterday and ended up spending about £700 ($1000 - roughly) on myself.
I never know what to get anyone.
 
Hey PIT, attract your attention to the 3rd example I gave. That might help ya out.

OR, ya know that crystal store in the mall? Well get her like a hanging crystal or something like that

Thanks mth, the stuffed animal idea could be a good one.

Nap, I've already thought of that one - I gave her this mounted-crystal-thingie for her birthday, which she loved.

You and me both Taz.
I just hate going to the shops when its packed and I've been sick lately.
I was able to get my mom a Palm pilot and I ordered a new freezer for her that will be delivered after X-mas.
Got my Dad a new watch.
And I've got a lot more on my list but don't have any sort of free time to do any sort of shopping.

But my sister did half of my Christmas shopping for me today.
 
I actually ordered most of my stuff online- and its all here already. I hate the mall (as you know) - but I did the same thing as Sean and I bought myself stuff last week

Speaking of "girly" stuff, mthr, I caught a glimpse of my b/f's list and he had written down, "girly stuff" as ideas for his female friends
