    I went all out this year for my mom and got her a 55" LED 3D HDTV. She really needed a new one and someone had to do it.

    A deluxe wooden Scrabble set with lazy Susan. They love Scrabble, and their old set is falling apart.

    Pain in the ass to find and not cheap. But really good quality.

    That's nice^^^^(scrabble set) . The 55" TV also!

    My parents don't live anymore, but I just went to pick my wife up a Vera Bradley purse/bag that I knew she wanted. Without looking at the price tag (it's just a cloth bag, how much could it be?:eek:), I though it would be nice to pick up a matching wallet for her also.
    Dang, what a surprize when I got to the register:eek: $135.00 for a stupid purse and wallet! Next Year I will shop at Walmart.:D,
    Just kidding, she's worth it; I was just a little surprised.

    Oh yeah, the other thing for dad is doing a bunch fo fix-it projects around his house. He isn't handy, and he doesn't want stuff. And it makes me happy to help in a way that isn't materialistic. :)

    Wife and I got my parents tickets to an OKC Thunder game. They complain all the time that they've never been, so we though we'd get them something nice.
