Let me know and check them out, I frequently post deals I find!

If you're in Canada and looking for something cheap but "insanley fabulous" to give to your BFFFL (Best Female Friend For Life), TRY FOREVER21.
You MAY think its really expensive, and because Miley Cyrus, Paris Hilton and Drew Barrymore wear stuff from there, even more expensive; But it's totally not!
Totally ADORABLE dresses are from 15$-30$!
Amazing quality!
and right now, things are 50% off! So, i've been stalking up on things for my bff's and sister!
Forever21 is AMAZING.

If you're not in Canada, you can totally buy it online! Hope you girlies have lots of fun shopping and spending time with the fams for the holidays!

Baking is good, or if you know how to knit, a scarf or dish cloths can be a quick and easy handmade gift!
Do you enjoy crafting at all? Making a Scrapbook page of a picture of the two of you and putting it in a not-too-expensive frame would also make a really nice gift!

Baking is always great. Make your friends favorite treat then get some pretty plastic wrap, some ribbon and make a nice box or bag for it. Homemade gifts are so much better then store bought

Whats something I can get my bf for xmas? He has all the music and pc stuff that he wants, and i dont wanna get anything too lovey-cheesy XD... any ideas?

I always bake for my friends. It's cheap, easy, and they LOVE it!

This year, I'm buying purse hooks for all my girl friends. They run from $10-$20 each, and are so useful while eating out.

If you're looking to spend less than that, you can buy one of those large wooden letters from a craft store (one for each person, using the letter of their first name) and paint and decorate it to make it look cute. They run from $2-$3, and are sometimes even cheaper when on sale. When decorated, it is such a fun gift! If you want to go further, you can attach it to a wooden dowel and attach the whole thing to a piece of wood to make a stand. Then you can add a tiny alligator hook and clip a picture of you two together.

an ipod isnt exactly cheap really. i would suggest baking for people or if your good at drawing u could do that. same with poetry etc. that way it either wont cost at all or will be very very cheap. look through clearances on websites and look for discount codes on the internet to. im on a budget this year and 3 for 2's and clearance outlets are my best friend haha. good luck but remember its the thought that counts.

hmmm an i pod maybe?
