What types of holiday gifts do you plan to give family, friends and kids this year? (Check all that apply.)

We get a range of holiday gifts for friends and family every year, but every year there’s usually a hot commodity item that everyone wants.  The past few years, iPods and personal technology have been top-selling items.  And, in the past, it’s often been a child’s toy that was the hottest commodity...does anyone else remember Cabbage Patch Kids and Tickle Me Elmo?!

What types of gifts are at the top of your list for friends and family this year? 

Personal technology (i.e., ipods) (34.9%)

Home entertainment/technology (i.e, TVs, laptops) (26.4%)

Beauty products/make up (44.7%)

Food (chocolates, fruit, cheeses) (47.5%)

Personal products (i.e,. electric toothbrush) (26.4%)

Kitchen products/small housewares (i.e., digital picture frames, indoor grills) (35.6%)

Kids products (56.0%)

Clothing/accessories (71.3%)

    I intend to get my family things they need and things they can cut expenses with as my son-in-law is to be out of work at the holidays.

    I think with the economy being as it is, practical gifts are best this year. Items that can be used, not put away and forgotten.

    It will be my little girl's first Christmas and you better believe Santa will be spoiling her!

    I like to give things that I know will be used instead of "that gift" that ends up in the closet until they are forced to bring it out when you visit so you think they liked it.

    My two children are in their mid and late 20s. Technology and clothes are very popular with them, and things I know they will use and enjoy.

    This year I'll be buying a number of beauty delux sample kits (makeup, moisturizers, etc.). My mom and sisters will get the chance to try new products and figure out which products work for them. Moreover, it will help them decide what products are worth spending money on. I hope they enjoy their gifts! I don't what I'll be getting for my dad or my brothers yet.

    My kids are young but are into electronic games and I plan on giving them the most educational type electronic toys/games I can find. Plus with several young kids, clothes are a must on the gift list. For family members this year, I'll be giving purses (Vera Bradley type) and filling with body lotions, and make-up. I feel like when giving a gift, i want to give something they will use and enjoy using.
