Help! My sister's birthday is coming up fast.

[LeftyMom]

I never know what to get her, because we're nothing alike. She'll be 22. She has expensive and girly taste, if that helps at all.

:shrug: I'm lost.

1. Say it with $$$!!

Or a gift certificate for clothes! ;)
I always like getting money from my sister!

[LeftyMom]

2. I have very little money to spend. (student, singe mom, unemployed)

So that's not going to work. :(

3. You sound like me.

I stopped the B-Day gifts a long time ago with my brother's and sister's.
Mostly I send an e-card to one sister. That's it.
If you live near her, how about some cookies or a cake, homemade?
A small plant? Does she have her own place?
My local video rental has dvd's for sale for @ $5.00!
Movies are always good or a good book!

You aren't giving me much to go on. What are her interests?

[LeftyMom]

5. I live in the same house (we're both at home while going to school)

Anybody else I'd make food, but she's the sort to look down her nose at a homemade gift (and anyhow, she always complains that my cooking "tastes like health food" even when I make brownies or something.)

Her interests are: boys, cheerleading, clothes, that kind of thing.

11. What about an I.O.U.?

For doing research for a paper or something she needs done for a class?

That would leave her some free time to pursue the boys & cheeerleading. :rofl:

4. does she have long hair? does she have pierced ears?

:shrug:

[LeftyMom]

6. Sorta long, very thin. Peirced ears are a yes.

7. Why don't you

burn her a cd of her favorite songs?

Or earrings are always nice!
What about a bath kit, like they have at CVS?

9. my sister's b-day coming soon too...

I have the same dilema. I just buy something and attach a gift receipt.

10. Check out the sales on the Animal Rescue Site...

http://www.animalrescuesite.com

They often have nice jewelry and knickknacks for very reasonable prices. The discontinued area is a good bet, too! :hi:
