Hi(: so for Christmas I want to get my mom what she wants...I know it's werid and crazy but she wants a vacuum...I almost peed when she told me that's what she wanted lol(: but anyways I want to get her this but she's wayy to amazing and does WAYY to much just for a "vacuum"... So total!! I want to get her a vacuum and like a $30 other gift. So this means her gift will be SUPER expensive...which is money I don't have. Frown I don't have my dad to ask for money so I was thinking as my grandparents to lend me some? I know they would but I feel kinda rude. There's Noooo Ivan get. Trust me I've tried! What do I do? My mom is way to special and amazing Andd does way too much for me and my siblings to get nothing for Christmas! PLEASE HELP<3 thanks Smile

Hey girl,

It's great that you want to get your mom a great gift, but a vacuum isn't stupid if that's what she wants! It will be really useful to her! Rather than asking your family for money, if you want to give her something extra, why not make her a gift like an ornament or a piece of jewelry? She will love that you took the time to make something and it won't cost you money.

MOD! MOD! MOD!
I need help ASAP!I have NO idea what to get my boyfriend for Christmas! I don't have any brothers, so I don't have a clue. He loves the Pittsburg Steelers, and he is pretty athletic. I don't know what to get him! Any ideas? Oh, and I want it to be special.

Hey girl,

Don't freak out--I'm sure he'll love whatever you give him! If he loves the Steelers you could get him something small of that, or something that might remind him of an inside joke you two have. You could also always make something for him like an ornament. Check out these posts for tons of ideas on what to get your guy! http://www.girlslife.com/post/2011/11/28/What-should-I-get-my-BF-for-the-holidays.aspx http://www.girlslife.com/post/2010/11/09/present-for-my-crush.aspx http://www.girlslife.com/post/2008/12/05/Gift-Sitch.aspx http://www.girlslife.com/post/2012/12/07/5-thoughtful-gifts-guys-really-love.aspx
