200 is a lot- you can do so much and yet my ideas are so limited

- ipod you can get it engraved too
- gift certificate to a hotel
- gc to a restr.

We had the same budget for our guys so we got them electric shavers and made a basket full of male grooming stuff...
gel, deoderant, Neutrogena has a whole line of male stuff... even soap for the shower that smelled really yummy, some Axe body spray, mouthwash, etc.

We got the best man the more expensive one ( $200) and the gm's the $150 one

eta: Sorry I didnt even think about taking a picture of the baskets but they were really cute!!!

thank u guys so much!! we have 7 GM but they are obviously all really close people in our lives and we know how expensive it is to be in a BP so we want to get them something really good. (probably spend about 300 on the BM).

I just asked my DH and he said:

1) A GC to Circuit City or Best Buy
2) An iPod
3) Tickets to a basketball or baseball game


But I love Maxine's gift basket idea and any guy would love that. We got our GM cufflinks with their initials engraved from Tiffany (for a GM and the BM) and silver keyrings from Tiffany with their initials engraved (for the other 2). We also got the BM a cologne from Tiffany - 'Tiffany Sport for Men' it smells unbelievably good and is only sold at Tiffany so he was excited.

Here are some cool ideas: New York Weddings 2005 - Saying Thanks

I think guys love things to 'pamper' themselves and smell good although they may not always want to admit it!

These are $150 Waterford Decanters.
The second pic was a little cheaper I think.
