Guys,

My parents wedding anniversary is in about 3 days (christmas day)
I am not sure what to get them...i have a budget of about $100 or less.
any good suggestions guys ?

I might get my dad a new cell phone, which i can get for a real good deal, about $65
when the phone actually retails $200. Mom does want this one watch...which is about $135
which is expensive for me.
Thanks !

I dont normally buy gifts for anniversaries, and considering its Christmas why not just get them Christmas gifts?

Wow mate, stop thinking material..they probably have everything money could get them ....

Seriously, my folks are in their 60's, all's good, they want something, they usually buy it.....BUT, sometimes, the thing they want most is ...you!..LOL My sister and I got our families together and a friend to shot some photo's and we got some nice frames....

I almost cried myself to see her reaction to the gift.....

I guess I jumped the gun, you havent said what anni it is....!...good luck!

Parents are weird. My Mom once went crazy with joy when I got her a 2GB microSD card for her cell and told her it would hold four times as many songs as her 512MB card. She thought I had gained access to secret NASA-tech.

I have no clue, sorry.

hahaah

I got my mom and dad something...they were pissed i got them something though.

I got a estee lauder set from macys for $65 ? it had a perfume, a small to go perfume, and lotion.
The lady was cool and threw in three EL lipsticks (apparenty worth alot ?) and a mini EL bag.

The lady was so nice that she wrapped it in estee lauder gift wrap, and estee lauder ribbons !


I ended up getting my dad a Polo button down dress shirt, which was on sale for about $34

Quoted for ban.

...but in all seriousness, giftcards to expensive restaurants usually do the trick.

Got mine one to Ruth's Chris last year. Winnar

a letter saying "I'm sorry for all that shit I did...."



Combine these 2 suggestions and they will be happy.
