I have bought may parents Josh Groban tickets for Christmas. Any ideas of how to wrap them?

Question

I dont want it to be obvious. My dad is a good guesser and would like some original ideas.

Answer 1

ooo your parents are so lucky they are going to see him in concert! it's absolutely wonderful experience. if you thought he had a breathtaking voice by just listening to his CDs, you're going to be totally blown away when you hear it live and in person <3<33

anyways, it would be funny if you put them inside something they totally did not want and would not use. My best friend once got me a rather thick book entitled "The history of tanks used in WWII" for my birthday, and I totally it was the most random thing ever and i didn't know if she was serious, because i don't like that kind of stuff and she knows it. I just set it aside and said "uh....thanks". Then she said, "aren't you going to open it and read it?" and just to make her happy, i did, and lo and behold, she had cut a hold inside the pages and nicely fitted a DVD, neatly hidden inside the book! i would have never known it was there if i hadn't opened it, lol. it was a great trick. she said the reaction she was looking for from me was "TANKS!? you don't know me at all! I hate you!" but I just set it aside and ruined her trick. hahah. anyways, yeah, put them in something your parents would never expect (ex: an emptied box of food (chocalotes, cashews, etc)).
or maybe but them someplace and tell your mom to do something where she will just "serendipitously find them", like, place them next to the phone and tell her to hand you the phone. or place them inside the microwave and ask her to microwave your mash potatoes. or if it's not too cold, place them on your parent's car's windshield wipers, and tell your dad, "dad....it looks like you got a ticket outside." so then he will think it's a parking ticket or something and go out and get surprised. or you know, tape them to the clock and ask your dad to tell you what time it is. lol
=)
have funn!!

Answer 2

If you go with all the ideas about wrapping them in something (like a sweater or a towel) and then shoving it in a box, don't forget to put something in the box that will make a little bit of sound when it moves. Like drop a couple pennies in so when the box is tilted you can hear a penny slide across the bottom of the box.

Answer 3

You could get them a Josh Groban concert DVD and put the tickets in the case. They'd just think they have a concert on DVD, then when they open it, they'd get tickets to actually go.

I got this idea, because a friend of mine got me a concert DVD of John Mayer, when I opened it there were tickets printed on the DVD, I thought they were actual tickets at first. Big disappointment, but would be a good idea.

Answer 4

I would give several small gifts that would lead to the tickets like The Polar Express Movie then something to do with Greek and then give them one of those old alarm clocks with the bell for the CD Awake then I would have the tickets in a card to the both of them

Answer 5

Wrap them in several boxes inside boxes. Maybe like 4 or 5. You don't want them to get tired of unwrapping boxes! LOL Or else you can hide them and put a note inside a box and send them on a scavenger hunt!

Answer 6

You could get different sized boxes and fit them inside of each other each idividually wrapped and put the tickets in a small jewelry box and have it the last box to be unwrapped.

Answer 7

Wrap them within other wrapped Christmas presents. If the box is much bigger, they won't figure it out

Answer 8

When I get someone a small gift I put in a HUGE box. it will totally psych them out.

Answer 9

Do a scavanger hunt around the house. That'll keep them guessing for a while.

Answer 10

Get a shoebox and put a sweater in it. Then put the tickets inside the weater. Garuntee he doesn't find out. :)
