Like an idiot I have been putting off buying one last Christmas present b/c I knew all along that I would not be seeing my friend, the person receiving the gift, until after Christmas.
He is a member of our Bridal Party and a dear friend of mine... He is, actually, my BEST friend in the world. I have known him for years and he is the only one (out of my friends) that I exchange with... He always tells me I'm like a sister to him.
He got me a whole entire set of Samsonite luggage for our Engagement-- he REALLY goes above and beyond and I love him so much!
Of course, I'm on a tight budget and also I have no CLUE what to get him... He is 20 years old, he is in College (dorms in NJ)... Any ideas ladies?? I want it to be special b/c it's a birthday and Christmas combined (of course he was born around the Holidays lol)...
Help ladies!!!!

LOL here I am as the 'older sister' figure always trying to discourage drinking-- He would die laughing if I got him that...
It's a good idea though lol I'm going to Hell!!

That's an awesome idea... I'm wondering if he has one already??? Hmmmm... That and maybe a mini fridge- they have them for real cheap at Costco.

Re: Help!!!
In a moment of complete desperation...
I called my ex boyfriend (his brother) ... Yeah I know, it's a hairy situation...
But I called him for advice
What else could I do??
He told me that he has a mini fridge already at school so that's out, he told me that he has a George Foreman at home but he is not sure if he has one at the dorm (So he probably doesn't which is great), He told me that he bought my friend an IPod for Christmas so that if I were to get him that docking station (that plays it) it would be a great gift!!! And lastly, he told me he could really use cologne.
So, it was a good idea to call him and it paid off-- I totally know what to get him now!!!
THANKS LADIES!!
Oh BTW, he also told me that he still loves me, wants to get back with me and that letting me walk out the door was the biggest mistake he ever made-- LOL!!!!!!!!! J/K!!!! That would be if I could read his mind
Sorry, had to

Yeah it was-- see above, too bad he already has it. The kid is pretty well off money wise so it's like 'what to get the kid that has everything'... lol but I got some ideas courtesy of my ex.
