I need to get some presents for my friends and fam, and I can't spend more than $5 on each of them. Do you have any ideas? I REALLY need them, thanx!!

maybe you can find some decent earrings
old navy always has clothes marked down real cheap in the clearance area.
just go to a lot of stores and check out what they have marked down.
um walmart has that bin of movies marked down from 5 to 10 dollars. maybe you could find one that your friends might actually like! planes trains and automobiles is a good one that you're parents would hopefully like.
the best way to find cheap good gifts is to go out looking for them yourself
or you could make something for them. maybe bake some cookies or some other kind of treat.
you can get 3 of this item for $15 dollars http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2109849&cp=2484526.2496735.2508289.2078877
i bought one before and i really like it.
or $15 and under items from bath & body works http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=2512607&cp=2484530
or 2 for $5 hand cleansers. your mom might like the Aromatherapy ones. http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=2295586&cp=2484777
or 2 for $5 lotions http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=2295471&cp=2484777
if youre a teen you can go to walgreens and find some novelty candy to give your friends. they're cheap (like $2) and show personality.
or you could buy the girls a make-up item..like eye shadow.
i'm sure you can find some photo albums for $10 and under somewhere. i got a pink fuzzy one for $5 at old navy once..
maybe you could get your parents a nice picture frame?
fleece blankets aren't expensive either.
candles.
and the guys? marked down cds.
poster for their wall with their favorite band or movie or something.

Lottery tickets.
Dollar bills.
Five dollar bills.
Ten dollar bills.
Avoid loose change unless you tape it to the card.
DO NOT GIVE gift cards. They either force the person by some trinket in an over price store, or sort through the after Christmas junk. If they save them until the Spring than they will be worth less due to fees.

Walmart has a lot of gifts for real cheap. Go to the Christmas section and you will find them.

Buy cute tins or jars and make them a special treat. Or buy Christmas tree ornaments for each and try to personalize them for each person--i.e. if your friends and family are partial to particular cartoon characters or films, buy them a tree ornament of that character. or make them a small stocking full of treats. other cheap items: body lotion, books, inexpensive jewelry, book marks, picture frames, photo albums, candles, ties, etc. Have a great Christmas!

If any of them are little kids then those Ty Beanie Babies are great. Female adults a live plant...not a poinsettia. Male adults...a nice can of cashews. Teens and older kids...a cool t-shirt.
