I have two daughters 22 and 17 and I need help with suggestions for Christmas gifts. I ask their Mother my ex and they say cloths or money. I am a guy I dont know what cloths to buy them and I will give them money and gift cards but I want them to have something more personal to open up as well. Any suggestions will help.Thanks

Go to some of these great store for teens:
Old Navy
The Gap
Abercrombie & Fitch
American Eagle Outfitters
Victoria's Secret
Charlotte Russe
Forever 21 XXXI
They will love clothes, shoes, purses, make-up, perfume, CD's, etc. Jeans and trendy, hip clothing is great. Check out Seventeen Magazine for some great tips too.
if you see them before Christmas, can you make a mental note of the styles they are wearing? Maybe take an inconspicuous quiz about what bands they listen to? What perfume they like?
Money is always a great gift too! Remember when you were thier age and it was hard to make money. If you did, it was minimum wage? I know it's not very personal, but if you could couple it with something more personal from above,I think they'de really like it.
Good Luck! You are sweet to care enough.

Your daughters will understand that you are a man, and therefore have no taste in Christmas presents. Not your fault, we're too picky, and guys and girls just think differently. Safe ideas are candles and bath and body works. Beyond that just think about things they like. Maybe a magazine subscription, go pick out a magazine at the store that you think they would like. If they're girly Cosmo, if their into sports and fitness a Womans Health mag, etc. Then just wrap up the mag and order a subscription for them. That's something that shows you're trying and you do know something about them. Other ideas might be a spa day for the two of them (if they're close, if not separatly). When in doubt as a salesLADY. Describe your daughter and she will probably be able to figure something out. When possible, buy things that are returnable. It's nice to see a Dad who cares about his girls. Best of luck, and Merry Christmas

Get something that brings back memories or inside jokes because wants come and go but memories last. For my brother I got him wooden spoons, a locker and antibacterial hand soap. Walmart has some gift packages. Also this site has some really good ideas: http://www.gifts.com/

If you want a gift card from best buy, go to http://urlx.org/directtrack.com/55c2a and you will get one worth $500 and all you have to do is fill out the survey. I got mine from there and all I had to do was enter my email address. Some other good sites for clothes like old navy and stuff are:
http://linkachi.com/?836
http://urlx.org/directtrack.com/6f507
http://digbig.com/4qhym
http://doiop.com/d6ho82
For all of those all you have to do is enter your email address or zip code and reply back to them and you will receive a gift card from those stores free of charge, I got my old navy one from there and it was totally worth it.

the BEST thing, would be a gift card to a clothes store or something. a store they like, if you get them clothes, they might not like it, well that can be with anything u get them. so if u get them a gift card to there fav store. they will love it.

Get them the gift cards preferably VISA gift cards so they can use them any where..Then you can also attach a silver charm, since charm bracelets are so in I am pretty sure thay have on eor can easily wear on a necklace..

Give them a book that matches something they like or are into. Amazon has a book for everything and it is quick.
