We have to have gifts by Saturday. Nothing like waiting till the last minute! My FH was supposed to do this. He is having a hard time trying to figure out something that the guys can actually use. Any ideas?

Do the guys play poker? You can get really nice clay chips - comes in a silver case with handle and has cards and dice. Really nice.

My gambling FH just got himself this...It is pretty nice. He is getting the guys all tickets to sports games they can all go to together.

Re: What is a 'useful' groomsmen gift?
Are these stupid??? There are 4 very different groomsmen...by different I mean personalities... so I was thinking of 4 different gifts:
1. Gift Certificate to Restaurant 2. Something for his new motorcycle 3. AAA membership for his new car 4. Xbox Video Game
Like Angelo and Maxie's. Where's there another one? The one I used to go to got closed down after the shooting. Did they open again? If you are thinking of doing restaurant gift certificates you can go to:
They sell them at a discount. I think $25 certificate for $5 and a $50 for $15.
We bought a travel shaving kit but it took a little for us to get them.

I think we're doing money clips but FBIL was in a wedding and they got fossil watches.

Are they golfer's or baseball players?
You can get them a club and glove or you can get a bat and glove.....
Tool sets....

They are not stupid! Thats a good idea. You can't get guys the same gift when they are all completely different people.
ETA: Sorry..I wrote stupid but did not mean that at all...its didn't make sense what I wrote

Re: What is a 'useful' groomsmen gift?
Here are some of the things I've suggested to FH: a watch, sunglasses, poker chips, wallets, sports game tickets, cufflinks. Initially he wanted to get them watches, now I think he's going with mongrammed cufflinks.
