Holidays - October 2006

My community has a Festival of Trees in early December and each year my coworkers and I decorate one for the festival. Our theme this year is "Christmas around the World" and I have Mexico. Living in New Mexico you'd think I have great access to such things but not in the NW corner. So I'm curious if any of you know any great, but cheap, online websites that may have something I could use. I have a $50 budget so the cheap part is kind of essential.

We already are doing the following:

- Christmas Party in early December(dinner theater comedy show, guest invited)
- Cash bonus
- $20 Gift card for their favorite grocery store (in lieu of turkeys, we don't get a great response when we give turkeys anymore)
- Hallmark ornament customized to their personal hobbies
- Custom snowman wall plaque (www.familysigns.com)
- Rainy Day Fund jar with a $50 gift card inside to their favorite store
- Continental Breakfast on 12/22

Not sure what else to give them. We always give gift baskets full of something. One year it was a breakfast theme with about $100 worth of stuff in it and a gift card. One year we did digital cameras. We thought this year we'd do 5-6 gifts around $10-20 each for each employee and hand them out one at a time (sort of "santa" style) under the tree. We only have 8 employees so it is managable.

Any ideas? We want to keep it personalized & useful for everyone - most employees are in their 40s or 50s.

Today me and my mom were looking at stores for Halloween costumes.. I saw this big stand with TONS of crazy, colorful, glittery glasses and stuff & it made me think of Elton John.. So I told my mom about it and we were talking about wearing like a white top hat, some crazy glasses, and a bright shirt or something then going around singing 'Candle in the Wind' for Halloween.. I know its dorky but it fits my personality lol.. What do you think?

I was walking around shops and have noticed lots of decorations in shops!! My friend thinks that it is way too early for things like that, and I do agree to an extent. . . . .but I love christmas!! I can't help feeling a bit excited and a bit happier, when I walk through the shops!!
What do you think? Is it way too early or do you enjoy the festivities at this time?

I have a red & white striped shirt, an eye patch, and a big hoop earring (came w/the patch) but what else should I get/wear to go along with a pirate costume?? I hate wearing store bought generic costumes so I always like to put it all together myself... Any suggestions?

It's cheap, halloween costume material, like the "scream" outfit you see all over. I don't want to spend any money on something new but want to use it to be a corpse bride this year.

my three friends and I do a USD20 gift exchange for christmas each year. we'd write our four names on a note and draw. so long we do not draw on our name, we'll then get a gift for that 'secret pal'.

over the years, i have exhausted my mind on what to buy. any one has any ideas how to do it differently (besides drawing names) or any creative gifts to recommend?

fyi, one is a rich lady who "has everything", one is a homely lady with only husband and kid in mind, one is a feminine lady who likes pretty stuff.

thanks.

I need some good easy ideas for Halloween costumes. We work in an office, so it has to be clean, but there are either 3 or 4 women. Also, any good ideas for a man and woman-need some for the bosses.
