Gifts idea for extended family??

So my girlfriend and I are hosting Christmas. Her cousins and their husbands as well as their kids are going to be here too. Feeling a little pressured..what are some good cheap extended family gifts I can stock pile on? Was thinking maybe some cheap bottles of wine or something...maybe some hot wheels for the kids...any suggestions??

 

they local to you? if not, maybe a bunch of local items. other option is to just do a white elephant for the adults with a range from $30-50, then you aren't out a lot of money. we usually just do a white elephant when there are people we don't know well joining us, it's MUCH easier for everyone and fun at the same time when you allow stealing of gifts

 

Do the white elephant gift exchange but have to tell everyone in advance. Cheap, easy and fun.

 

yeah they are local. last year her cousins hosted Christmas dinner and we showed up empty handed and they bought my girlfriend and I gifts. I felt awkward as hell.

 

gotcha. that makes sense. trader joe's nearby? they have their bargain bin of wine and that is almost always a great pick.

 

not here. whole foods or freshmarket.

 

You have to ask yourself how much you can afford.
