Here are some ideas I have -
Dad - sweater, dress shirt, ties, shoes, wallet, cologne, blue tooth
Mom - make up/anti aging gift set (lancome, christian dior, shiseido, etc.), sweater, blouse, wallet, purse, blue tooth, pajama set, leg massager, back massager
Brother - wii or 360 games, dress shirt, sweater, shoes, wallet, blue tooth

I am having the same problem. I looked at the popcornfactory stuff. I think my parents would kill me if they knew I spent money on that crap.
Maybe this will help: call each family member and ask what the other ones want or what they are getting each other?
My dad told me he bought my mom a t.v. for the office, so I bought her a dvd player today (it was only $35) to go with it.
Also if you don't end up buying the "perfect gifts" I always try and arrive early on Christmas to help out in the kitchen and bring the dessert. A bottle of wine for everyone to share is nice too.
P.s. If you must buy nuts and popcorn-go to a craft store buy a basket and pick up some stuff at a grocery store. the mark up on that sight is probably 50%

I would probably spend more money on your brother since your parents will understand, and your brother would be much more appreciative. I'd spend about $10-$15 for each parent, and $20-$30 on your bro. It really depends on what your family likes. Mine, I got my parents food items (chocolates & cookies) since they'd rather eat stuff than put a bunch of useless stuff around the house. For my bro, I'd get him a game.
