my friends are all 15-17 and i have $83 my mom and dad are buying a bunch of candy and little bags so ill fill up bags of candy for my friends and candy canes with a ribbon tied
for people i just met but could see us being friends.

i have 6 people (my close/best friends) that i want to buy for...i listen to what they say for example my friend allie told me she went to hollister and her mom bought her a bunch of clothes but she wouldnt buy her the mints and she really wants them. so im going to buy her mints along with SOMETHING....

i have 2 best friends out of the 6 and the other 4 are just close friends and they wont tell me what they want..

THANKS

I've kind of always been in your situation, wanting to buy things for close friends but not wanting to spend so much money :P haha!

There's always little gifts that you can get them but the thing is, do you actually want them? Imagine if they got it for you for Christmas, would you like it / use it?

Some things I've done in the past is make necklaces or other jewelry for my girl friends.. hemp, beads, anything. Actually, jewelry is a main answer when I need a quick Christmas fix! Framed pictures are always good too. Or anything like bubble baths, hand creams, go to the Body Shop and spend some time in there.

As for guys... I've never found it easy to shop for them. But you have to know them inside & out and make sure they'll appreciate whatever it is you give them, even if it has something to do with an inside joke maybe.
If they won't tell you what they want, try and pick up on little hints.. if youre out somewhere, and they see something cute in the window that they comment on, keep that in mind. Do they have pets? Get some chew toys :)

I don't know your friends so it's up to you to decide what they would like. If you know they like seafood, find a market of some sort and scope out smoked halibut... I don't know! You've got plenty of time, though. Have fun!

Since you still have some time (over a month till Christmas)...

Go buy a disposable camera at WalMart or someplace like that. Take a bunch of fun pictures of your friends and you together -- take turns being the person in the pictures and holding the camera. Then get the film developed and buy little acrylic frames for the best ones. Buy some puffy paint or pretty sparkly markers and decorate each frame in a special way for each friend. You could write "Best Friends Forever" or draw hearts or smiley faces or whatever.

It's not expensive and it's something that I'm sure each of your friends will like. Have a great Christmas!

83 \ 6 = about 13 or 14 dollars. So I'd spend just about that amount for each friend.

Here are some cute ideas:
clothes
bath stuff
if one of them likes to read then maybe a book set
if one of them likes video games then maybe get them a game?
gift cards
and uhmm... well it really depends on what they like to do and stuff. Maybe find out more about them and find out some gifts that you can get from them from there! :)

Happy shopping and merry Christmas!

Actually this year, Eid (festival for muslims) is falling around the beginning of december. So you could just have the intention of it being an Eid gift, rather than a christmas one. That way, you get to give a present to your friend, just like the others. And your friend and your family, are also happy because you respect, and somewhat understnd their religion. I wish I had a non-muslim friend, who was as caring as you... Hope that answers the question:D

Use the candy. Use it for the friends you met to make little gift. Baskets with mayb like a little note showing them appreciation. For the best friend Allie get the mints as long as they r under 20$ u should get ur friend jewelry or mayb get like a king size candy bar. U should probably spend 20$ for each friend and if u have anything leftover it's ur choice to save or spend. If ur other friends won't tell u than get them wat suits their personality. B. Creative! Last peice of advice... If ur friend likes something expensive c if there is a. Bunch of coupons it will help reduce the price and make sure u look for good sales and deals
GOOD LUCK

I think perfume, makeup and jewelry are great gift items for girlfriends. I work at Aeropostale, and a lot of the younger girls buy the jewelry and purses as gifts for their friends, and we also have complimentary gift boxes and gift receipts. How about get each of your friends something from Victoria Secrets? Make sure each present is totally different, for example: One friend gets PINK sweatpants, one gets lipglosses, another gets new perfume, etc. Think of what you would want...and don't forget the clearance section.

i usually buy a bunch of little gift bags and candy like your parenst did, but then i buy lipgloss, nailpolish, hair acceseries, etc. its better that way so everyone basically gets the same thing and no one feels hurt if someone gets something better then them. and this way you can spend less money! Merry Christmas!!!! i hope i helped you . =]
