Left less than 2 days will be Christmas. I am a last minute man. So just now, I went around some of the malls in Kuching to look for a Christmas gift for my girlfriend. This time my budget is a bit tight and I just do not know what kind of gift that is still in my budget. There were some gifts that really reasonable but I fell that they were just not good enough for her. For sure there were some good gifts but oh my God, the prices were too much for me.In the end, I went back without any gift hehehe. Actually Christmas is not all about gifts but it is good to give gift to somebody. I hope that by tomorrow I can get the Christmas gift for my girlfriend. What do you think?

Actually you are true that Christmas in not all about just GIFTS.
The best essence of christmas is giving LOVE:)
As the song say`s "Give Love On Christmas Day" ^_^
So even if you do not give youre girlfriend a gift. Its just okay.
Just show her that you love her by setting a COOL DATE. :)
But as we all know, Nowadays GIFTS are very special especially when a person expect that you will be giving him/her.
By the way how old is your girlfriend?
If she is around 20 and below. You could give her a BIG HUGGABLE SOFT teddy bear :)
That`s a nice gift isnt it? Or you can give her a Pendant? Or Ring?
I hope you can afford it because its for your own LOVE :)
Well i hope i helped you a bit! Happy myLotting :)

girls usually get exited over some flowers. a rose maybe? but thats ONLY hwhen you have completely run out of funds. another idea is a plush-toy or something...probably something gigantic. if you want to get laid, maybe get some romantic songs disc and present it to her only on boxing day.i have never seen your girl before so i am guessing that she will be happy if you buy her some accesories to make her look good like necklaces, bracelets, earrings, hats, hair clips...so on and on. just think about what a girl might want during a night out and find the cheapest among them. hope this helped.

mrblur94, you have given me some ideas. Thank you for that ya. I really appreciate it. Well my girlfriend is a very down to earth person. She is not that choosy or particular in things. She does not even want me to give her a gift during this Christmas. She said that in a joking way..she does not any gift as long as I am happy with her.

How about something you can both enjoy, like a nice dinner out and a movie. Since she is your sweetie she sure knows that budgeting is tight so the quality time together could be appreciated.
Good luck and Merry Christmas to you both.

We always want to make a surprise, to find some unusual thing. But right now most of us have a tight budget. I recall the old people in my childhood. They wanted to chose useful things and they didn't seem like gifts for me. But in the present situation maybe you should think about something that your girlfriend need. You may even ask her and you have a chance to make a useful present.

if ur budget is tight, why not try to make sth by yourself? like u can make a card writing down with all the important dates for u two; or u can make paper folding--make the paper into the heart shape, on which says everything u wanna say to her and blessings.
buddy, just let her know u love her. believe me, girls are emotional, show her your feelings towards her. it is OK.

If you're in a tight budget and you're girlfriend is not picky about the presents you give her.. I think a simple and unique Christmas card or letter would suffice. Last Christmas, my boyfriend gave me a Christmas card with his personal message. I know he was in a tight budget and I was expecting he wouldn't give me a present for Christmas. I was delighted and I almost moved into tears when I received the Christmas card he gave me. It was very thoughtful of him to write words that held my heart with great love and sincerity.
I think Christmas cards or Christmas letters wouldn't be bad. ^_^
