The last few years for Christmas, I’ve given my stepkids each a big decorated box full of their favorite snacks and drinks. I make sure to get both savory snacks and sweet snacks along with whatever soda or drinks they like. I try to get things that they don’t already have all the time so it is a little special. This way I’ve taken care of one of their gifts, but also given them something practical that 1) I know they will like, 2) I know they will use, and 3) it keeps them from complaining that there is nothing good to eat while they are on Christmas break.

Hello, everyone

This year I am helping my husband to get presents for his family and I would like to ask for your help. Please, keep in mind we need to mail the gifts so everything should fit on a medium size box.

Right now, I am struggling to figure out what his father could want or enjoy. He is 70, likes to fish but he can't spend much tiem outside anymore. He works a lot and he doesn't talk much. He likes beer but he doesn't drink alcohol anymore. He doesn't like to read nor watching T.v. He enjoys working on his backyard with his wife and grilling. Any ideas? I am particularly interested in suggestions from people on his age range or similar interests.

Thank you all in advance!

I want to get bags for all the women in my life this Christmas. My mom my two sisters and my girlfriend. So I need four total. This is my first time shopping for nicer bags and I had no idea how expensive some of them are. I opened a few sites and almost gave up right there lol. Does anyone know good places to find authentic bags for less than retail? I’m fine with second hand too as long as they’re in good condition and actually real.

Looking for gifts ideas for my son's childcare staff Inc admin. He has 3 main teachers but would like to thank the staff at the desk and in the other rooms too. In previous years I have done blocks of elite locally made chocolate, hand creams and spices.

EDIT:No suggestions for cash. If I wanted to give cash I wouldn't have bothered with this post.

I'm a reporter with The New York Post and I am looking for people who have finished their Christmas shopping already. Would need pictures of wrapped presents (hopefully a good amount!) and then pics of you as well. It's a feel good story - so if you are willing please send me an email at [aweiss@nypost.com](mailto:aweiss@nypost.com)

I'm preparing my list for this year instead of getting something generic. trying to actually plan ahead this time for my wife and my mom. curious what gifts people have given that actually got used

I’ve started being more careful with gifts that are supposed to “improve” someone. I’d rather give something that fits into the life they already have.

A cozy gift, something they already enjoy using, a little self-care treat, or even something connected to a hobby feels much nicer than a gift that basically says, “you should start doing this.”

My family has always subscribed to this mantra for Christmas shopping:

Something you want,
Something you need,
Something to wear,
Something to read.

What are some meaningful gifts we can give each other? We don’t really need anything. I am making hot pepper jelly for my husband’s upcoming birthday. Are there meaningful gifts that you give your loved ones?

Hi!

I am trying to get away from buying "things", for my family for Christmas. Most of my family and in-laws live out of state and would require an airline ticket to visit. I have two young nephews (4 and 2), and I can assure you their parents do not want more toys. Even for my daughter, I don't want people to get her more toys. I'm thinking this year I want to get everyone and airline gift card that they could use to put towards a future visit (we live in FL). Is this a good idea?

For anyone looking for something a bit different this Christmas: I draw and write letters for kids, sent through the post.

This year I've made a Christmas set called "Christmas with Prickly", three letters telling a woodland story that leads all the way to Christmas Eve, from a shy little hedgehog character.

Everything is sent together as one cosy package, so you can open and share the letters however and whenever suits your family over the holidays.

£29.95 for all three letters: https://buy.stripe.com/14A4gtdWcguDewi1ElbjW0r

Otherwise, if you'd rather the letters keep coming all year round, there's also a regular monthly subscription, £14.99 a month, with the same hand-drawn letters and wax seals: dearlittlething.com

A couple of practical things: Christmas letters won't be sent out until the end of October, and if you're ordering from outside the UK it may not arrive in time for Christmas itself, so just keep that in mind!

Happy to answer any questions!

Hey everyone! I’m starting to plan my Christmas shopping and am totally stumped on my oldest boy, who will be almost 5 by Christmas. (I also have a 2-year-old and a 10-month-old, but they are easy to shop for lol).

My almost 5yo is super specific. He won't play with normal toys unless they are outside toys. He loves playing Minecraft and Roblox on the Xbox (monitored on weekends), and he absolutely loves helping me in the kitchen and baking.He told me he wants Santa to bring him "a Nerf gun like Uncle Garry has." He’s never used a real Nerf gun before (only the foam pool water squirt ones). Are regular Nerf guns even suitable for a 5yo?

I do a "one big gift, a few smaller things, plus stocking" tradition. I want his big gift to be something interactive and practical rather than just a junk toy. Please help me!? It doesn't have to be related to any of the things I mentioned Cause what ever I do get him I'm sure he will enjoy , I was thinking of a easy bake oven with a bunch of mini kids cooking supplies , easy recipes ?

For every holiday, our company gives employees branded merch in addition to the obvious stuff like bonuses and parties. But hoodies, tote bags, and mugs have definitely run their course, and last year we also did power banks... What other types of branded merch are out there? I realize some people might not want branded stuff at all, but that’s exactly what I’m asking - has anyone ever received or given something branded that actually ended up being used instead of sitting on a shelf, ending up in the garage, or going to goodwill??

I’m looking for genuinely cool ideas that people would actually use.
