Thanks the great list. As this year all our gifts are homemade. We are trying not to spend so much. I like the Gift Membership idea and it would be a nice gift for parents with kids .

Thanks for sharing

One thing we asked grandparents to contribute to for Christmas one year was for a merry-go-round that my husband was building. The children play on it every day!

I really like your suggestions! Those are all gifts that will be used all year long, not fads that will quickly be forgotten.

Now THAT is getting your money’s worth!

I love your post. I read a quote the other day: We don’t buy Christmas, we enjoy it. Maybe we all need to sit down and reflect on what Christmas is. Thank you!

Fabulous Ideas Happy Housewife. Great to know that Christmas doesn’t have to completely break the bank.

Great ideas! My dad & stepmom still have 6 kids at home (9 of us total – his/hers/theirs) and your list fits them perfectly.

I bet there is more than one husband out there that would appreciate a subscription to ESPN magazine, and Amazon has it for only $5 right now.. 26 issues for five bucks! I bought it for our boys for Christmas. http://bit.ly/5DWsEA
