My family has a limit of $10 on gifts. After numerous years of this, I need some fresh ideas. I have men, women, children, 20 somethings,elderly....every demographic to shop for. So ALL ideas are appreciated!

I've done beer, wine, scratch tickets, candy, candles, ornaments, gift cards. Can you think of something different? Or do you have a favorite item that falls in the under $10 category?

Stamps are a really great idea! The older folks don't pay anything online, so they use stamps often. I never would have thought of that.

Today I was able to find some Lego Creator sets for under $10. And some Leapfrog Explorer games that were on a HUGE sale.

Here's what I've done so far...

My mom: magazine subscription, color by number set (winter entertainment)
Dad: Charleston Chews and a giant thing of cashews
Cousin: Melissa and Doug puzzle
My boys: Lego Creator and LeapFrog Explorer Games
Grandmother: brooch and I will get stamps as her 2nd gift
Brother in law: Best Buy gc and 3 Musketeers

Many more to go, but I've started.

I've asked for stationary for myself

I was just thinking DVDs. Best buy has a bin full of DVDs for $4.99. I picked up some newer ones to have at home. I also hit the clearance at Barnes and Noble and found some books and games under $10.00.
