Last minute gifts for women

| | Comments (1) |

KnitGift.JPGMen make up the bulk of last-minute holiday shoppers, according to a recent PayPal survey. Men procrastinate? REALLY???

Okay, that was an unfair, sarcastic characterization of almost half of the world's population. To make amends I'm suggesting a few last minute gifts that your lady will love.

+ A gift certificate to a spa, which gives her options for how to use it. Facial? Massage? New do? The choice is hers.

+ A piece of clothing from a store she shops at frequently. She will appreciate the effort you took to pick something out. Include a...

...gift receipt so she can exchange it.

+ Something to keep her warm. A scarf, slippers, gloves, a hat. Remember to include a gift receipt.

+ A framed picture of the two of you. Target has frames for $5 and up.

+ A gadget she has been wanting. Or something that compliments one she already has, like MP3 downloads, cool applications, or a cell phone case.

+ A note about how much you adore her.

+ When in doubt, call her girlfriend and ask for suggestions.

+ A clear jar with ingredients to make cookies or brownies. Include a tag with directions and what ingredients the recipient needs to add (eggs, milk, butter, etc).

What else would you add to this list?

To those who know me personally, and read my musings on here, a certificate for the Nordstrom Spa in Woodland Hills would be very nice!

It would give me a reason to go to the full-line Nordstrom instead of my usual hangout, Nordstrom Rack.

I know I'm cheap, but please, no certificates for a massage from one of those little hole-in-the-wall strip center Korean massage parlors! Something about those places gives me the creeps...lol
