What to get for a couple for Christmas?

Q. I am searching for gifts under 15.00 for several couples. I need ideas (no gift cards though) for husbands and wives together. Ideas?

A. You can make some gifts. A few years ago i made Fire Starting Kits for a Family Christmas party! All you need is Pine cones & some Scented Wax, (Or an old scented candle - Which i prefer, seeing as it smells better.) Melt the wax, dip the pine cones, & let them dry. Put some in a basket, with some long handled matches, or even just a normal book of matches, & there you go. Its affordable, & even if they don't have a fireplace, they smell amazing, and look good! (Plus if done right, it looks like a Much more expensive gift than it really is.) LL Bean sells something similar in a metal bucket for $40. (Ill put it in the references box!) Good Luck!

What type of gift to give to a diabetic who just came home from the hospital?
Q. A friend of the family just came home from the hospital after suffering from pancreatitis. We are going to see him this evening, and I wanted to bring him a get well gift. I was going to bring him food, but he found out he was diabetic while in the hospital, so I'd rather not go that route. Any ideas? (He is in his 50's)

Something under $15 or $20 would be great.

A. a diabetic cook book? i got one when i was diagnosed and i love it :]
i'd steer clear of diabetic chocolates and the like as they produce nasty laxative effects
maybe a hamper of fruit also!

What Christmas gift do you get for teenage boys ?
Q. I have some close guy friends who are 13 . Same age as me . The problem is . . . I don't know what you get them for Christmas other than video games [which is out of my budget] . So what kinda gifts thats under $15 do you get them ?

Oh . . . && also . What about a boyfriend ? Do you get them something different from what you would get a regular friend ?

*** Thanks in advance =) ***

A. Small gift cards or maybe a CD. Believe me, the friends you have at 13 aren't likely to still be there when you're out of college and getting started with your adult life. If your boyfriend was the one after video games you could go around places like Money Mart or other cash providers to look for second hand video games at a discount.
