    Default Odd/Cool/Cheap Christmas Gifts

    Let's start a thread that covers Christmas gifts you have found that other people might be have been interested in had they known about it. Here is my first entry:

    USB Rocket Launcher W/Software, add "DEALNEWS" coupon code for discount. This is one of the lowest price CP Weapons I have seen.

    http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/cu...s/86b8/?cpg=cj

    Here is a good stocking stuffer gift. Sterling Silver Saphire Bracelet for $65.00shipped. Enter this code upon checkout and get another 20% off bringing the total down to $52.00 shipped to your door.

    http://www.ice.com/customer/product_...oduct=39193634

    20% off codes:

    BCD20-843475
    BCD20-056856

    I contacted their customer service and they said the stones are real (not man made).

    I got my wife one as a cool stocking stuffer. I already bought a Platinum Bracelet (from bluenile.com) that cost a ton but I thought this price was to good to pass up (im sure she won't complain about getting two bracelets). I want to get her the matching Platinum Necklace but it's over $1000.00 and im not sure I can swing it at the moment.

    Here is one from Overstock.com

    Yellow Gold is a little out of style right now but this is a pretty low price considering the original retail amount:

    I did something a few years back that my parents and in-laws loved. I bought 4 nice journals and in each, I wrote a letter to my kids about the grandparent I was giving the journal. I wrote to my kids that the lives of their grandparents will mean as much to them as they have to me...Then, wrote a little bit to each grandparent asking them to write their life stories and pass them on to their grandkids...

    This year, I have almost finished writing a book for my wife...

    Wow, that's really cool Sacto. Never thought of anything like that, but I don't have kids yet (one on the way).

    Just so everybody knows. I belong to a bunch of message boards that center around people searching the internet looking for good deals. You can check it out for yourself by going to www.fatwallet.com or www.slickdeals.net. Check out their Forums, it takes a little getting used to, these people are absolutely nuts about finding different ways to save a few bucks here and there.

    Im not spamming anything, just listing stuff either I have found or stuff other people have found. If anyone has any requests I can do some searching for you.
