They are all coming in about 3 days and I didn't get anything yet! There is 8/12 left and I can't let that 8 people be left out! It would start a family feud. The 4 gifts I bought, used a lot of money, and at the coast of the 4 gits I already bought, getting 8 more will be a nightmare! Please help!

Go to the dollar store. Lots of great gifts for a dollar and it's the thought that counts.

How about being philanthropic and making donations to different charitable organizations in their name and maybe find a book that has something to do with the charity and wrap that up so they'll have something to open. Example- Make a donation on behalf of your friend/relative to a charity that is helping with the rebuilding of New Orleans after Katrina and then buy that person a book telling the stories of Katrina survivors. You'll totally feel like Oprah and who doesn't want to feel like Oprah.

Depends on how well you know them. Here are a few suggestions:
- A nice photo frame/collage frame with old picture(s) of you all having a good time somewhere special
- Homemade cookies or mini-cakes/pumpkin bread (see epicurious.com)
- A Christmas stocking (from the dollar store) with the person's name on it and filled with chocolate treats, an ornament, pocket [crossword] puzzle book, pens, etc.
- A personalized coffee mug with a small (sample size) bag of gourmet coffee or tea
- Hot chocolate set: Mugs, hot chocolate, slippers and/or warm throw (blanket)
- Basket filled with microwave popcorn, milk duds, a popcorn bowl and cheap DVD of old TV shows ($1 at Target and most dollar stores)
- Basket of lotion, shower gel, shower scrunchie, candle, etc.
- A nice ornament with the person's name on it - most places have their Christmas stuff discounted 30-50 percent.

Get 8 Christmas cards. Inside each card ask them for forgiveness that you are not materially wealthy enough to buy them presents. Then tell them that Jesus loves them.

Walmart has nice hot chocolate mix & mugs for $9.95. They also have coffee and mugs sets for the same price.
