Even though I am a woman and should have all the perfect presents picked out months in advance, this is not the case. I always wait until the last possible moment (ie on the way to their house to give them the present) and I'm sick of it.

Whilest visiting my liqour store today, I noticed they have several "liqour gift packages". Jager with a pewter shooter glass, Grey Goose with a snazzy martini glass (which I got for myself), Jack Daniels with cards and dice, etc. I really only have friends to buy for, and my boyfriends parents (who drink).

Think this is a good gift idea? What are you getting for people you get gifts for? I think a drunken xmas sounds like a fantasmic idea.

I love alchohol as a present. A nice bottle of Scotch is never a bad present either.

Alcohol is a great present. You know it will be enjoyed.

Off-topic -- Any update on your complaining neighbor or have you decided to quiet down /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I am as loud as I goddamn please before 10pm and I slam my door and I turn my TV up. I hope she enjoys it.

I've decided to let her complain all she wants. Sooner or later the people in the office will realize she's a dumb ho with no real reason to be bitching.

Also, I think the people in the office also realize if they put one more complaint on my door I'm going to go off on them because of my neighbors upstairs and how the office did NOTHING for a year about my 10+ complaints.

Thanks for asking /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Edit: It made me a feel a lot better visualizing some of the suggestions in that post.

Glad to hear it worked out. Now crank up the stereo and enjoy some Grey Goose......

I got the Jack Daniels package from co-workers last year...I loved it even though it reaffirmed my reputation as a big lush (one that I'm trying hard to shake.)

All my chess students get a chess book every year.

Got my Colts fan friend a Dwight Freeney jersey so he doesn't feel left out when I wear my Lawrence Taylor jersey to the sports bar. Last year I got him some JD Single Barrel and Oban 12 year. He loved it because he was short on cash at the time and drinking CRAP.

Mom always gets a GC to Williams-Sonoma.

One year, my friend and I pitched in and bought our p***r player friend a rack of white from our local casino.

I think you should get a couple liquor packages for your friends and ask for money in return so you can get your "nigga please" tat.

Hard core.

Sorry I can't add anything to the thread. I don't really buy people gifts for x-mas. I do however like the booze buying idea.

You know it's yours when the people that own it know your name and what you want before you even open your mouth.

Great, so the general consensus is that it's a pretty damn not bad idea. Thanks everybody!

vex,

I think everyone except for recovering alcoholics would like this present idea, so you should be careful so as you aren't buying for any, b/c awkwardness would ensue, and I'll go ahead and pm you my address, I'll take the grey goose.


Merry Christmas,

lbk

I gave my wife a fetus - that should be enough for her.
