Holidays - December 2007

Our local drug store has a "Sack it for Santa" thing they do. You buy a gift sack for a dollar (11x8) and fill it up with things for an area teen for Xmas. They say the teenagers get overlooked at the holidays and this is how they try to help.

question is, what would be the best things to fill the sack with? I want a good one that they would really like. If they don't get anything else for Christmas then maybe this can make things a little brighter for them, make things easier for a parent who can't afford anything right now.

I thought about getting some fun stuff and some functional stuff. A cute T-shirt or hoodie, some lotions(pretty ones), makeup, those types of things. I want the funtional stuff to be fun too so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

If you were an metro teenager and you were not able to have a good christmas (one with no basics, not " I didn't get the new playstation " ungreatfulness), what are some things you might like to see? Things you need?

I heard that Kwanza was a religion or a holiday or something just for black people, and that the guy who started it is a conman who is now in prison for embezzlement or something

I pride myself on being a great gifter but I am so at a loss with this guy. He's around 50 (?) and the outdoor type. I refuse to resort to the gift card thing and we have a $20 limit. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My sister has a houseful of kids...is it ok to just send them all money instead of trying to shop for them? I was thinking $50 each. Is that enough? Maybe $100 each?

I know I sound like a bit of a Christmas scrouge, but I would like to avoid exchanging gifts with everyone but my mother, grandma and fiance. These are the only people in my life that really matter to me, and I don't want to spend lots of money on gifts. I also HATE shopping. I'm doing okay finacially, but I feel that it is silly to recieve gifts from friends and extended relatives that don't know me well enough to pick out something other than a gift card. It seems even more silly when I feel obligated to return the favor with another gift card. Essentially, we both just write each other a $50 check, when I exchange gifts with some friends and family memebers. How is throwing money at each other in Chirstmas spirit? How can I hint at not wanting to exchange gifts this season?
