[QUOTE="ksm, post: 719333, member: 12511"] All our grandkids are between 17 and 29. It is no longer fun. The ones that we aren't raising, gets cash, and a small gift sack that contains a "chocolate orange" a chocolate ball that separates in to wedges of milk chocolate that has a mild orange flavor. And a few themed items, like kitchen tools or dish clothes. Or lotions, shower gel, etc. For our two, I usually buy some basic clothing items, and fill up a stocking with make up, teen stuff, etc. then I make a home made "gift card" for shopping at one of the stores they like, like Platos Closet. I have stopped giving cash or real gift cards, as it disappears and they have nothing to show for it... husband and I don't really exchange gifts. As at this age, we get what we need...and if we don't need it, we don't want excess stuff in the house. I usually try to get our two grands that we adopted a special ornament for the tree. Someday, I would just like to book a vacation for husband and I and not mess with the meal and gist exchange. It seems too expected and unappreciated... Ksm [/QUOTE]
