“I like giving my girlfriends unique bracelets that suit their personalities. Everyone loves to get something glittery!” – Jess

 

“My homemade hot chocolate mix. It’s super easy to make (for me and them), not to mention customizable by adding mini chocolate chips, marshmallows, cinnamon or even cayenne pepper for a little spice.” – Katie

 

“Peppermint bark. It’s an impressive treat that’s quick ‘n’ cheap to make. Plus there are always leftovers to munch on at home!” - Brittany

 

“I always give my sisters a tube of C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Shine from Bath & Body Works. It’s cheap, cute and very useful. Hello, glossy lips and fresh breath. That’s like two prezzies in one!” - Trish

 

“Books! Whether it’s a best-seller for my dad, coffee table-sized photography for my mom or a rare edition of my BFF’s favorite classic, I love to find the perfect book and know it’ll be a keepsake.” - Kelsey

 

“I love to make DIY postcards for my friends. I’ll collage the front with images and words that remind me of them and then write the nicest note possible. I know they keep them long after the holiday.” – Katie A.

Hey, so for one of my classes we are having a secret santa. The issue is that they set it up so the gift has to cost $20-$25! I don't have a lot of cash this year and this is most of my budget. I can't drop out because they already picked names. Are there any ways I could get a gift that seems expensive, but won't break the bank? P.s. I got a guy who loves sports, especially tennis.




Hey babe, 

If you talk to your teacher, they're usually able to help you out in terms of cash. I would get him something he would really like - like funky color tennis balls! Good luck! xoxox

HEY! OK so i have a big problem. I'm not sure if my friends and i are going to give gifts on christmas. I would feel bad if i didn't get them anything and they got me something, and i'm sure theyd feel bad if i got them something and they didn't get me anything. I don't want to ask them or anything (like just out of no where "hey are you guys getting me something for christmas?") so i don't know what to do. thanks in advanced!




Hey Girl, 

Why don't you suggest that you guys do a secret santa? That way, you'll either have a fun gift exchange or they'll say something like "I just wanted to get everyone something." Just try not to ask are you getting me anything from Christmas, but say something more like "are we doing a gift exchange?" Good luck!

I'm thinking about giving my friends some of that holiday body scrub and the sequined headbands from the Dec./Jan. issue. We do Secret Santa at my house and I have my dad but I don't know what I'm going to give him yet. So yeah...
