We are really broke this Christmas, and I'm pretty much 'Scroogin' it right now. I have a major 'bah humbug' attitude at this point. I don't have much money to spend for Christmas this year, and those #$^! kids of mine (lol) never want anything inexpensive! I would like to hear your ideas of inexpensive, yet meaningful, and not tacky, Christmas gifts. Also, what to get for my bosses (a married couple) who have no children, and plenty of money to buy whatever they want? NO clue! Thanks for your suggestions. www.killmydebt.blogspot.com

I scrounging doe cash this year too, so I came up with the idea of photo albums. I spent a lovely summer back home with my parents this year and took a lot of pictures so I thought it would be nice to put those pictures in albums for them. If you have adigital camera, it is so cheap now to develop them at Wal Mart and albums sre pretty cheap too st times! Other than that, I usually get magazine subscriptions or gift certificates. If you are artsy at all, you can make something. I am only giving gifts to immediate family this year, and just letting everyone else know that I dont want anything as I just dont have the $ to spend this year. People are understanding of this. Or at least they should be. Just remember that Christmas isnt just about gifts. Have your closests friends to your house for a movie and popcorn night. At least its something.

Photo albums are also great ideas and could be for your boss if you have any from your workplace. Awesome idea!

I think making cd's or dvd's of their favorite music or movie is a great gift and definitely inexpensive. It would probably be a lot easier to do for your kids than for your boss though. Boss's are always hard to buy for so maybe you and a co worker or two could go in on a gift for them together.
