My step-sister is getting married next year to a man who already has 3 kids. I can't afford to add 4 people to my already large Christmas list so I decided they are getting a family gift. I have no idea what to buy for them though. I normally bought my step-sister clothes. Anyway, in case it helps, she's 22, he's 32, the kids are like 8-12 or so. My budget is about $25 (not a lot) Any ideas for me? TIA!
 
Maybe do a movie night basket? You could include a gift card to a movie rental place and some microwave popcorn and yummy snacks & drinks etc. I did one for my BIL/SIL & their kids and some good friends of ours the Christmas before last & they were a big hit with their families.
 
Something else that can help cut costs is we only get gifts for the kids in our family. I was able to eliminate people this way and make my list shorter. We still buy for our parents, but we siblings decided we didn't need gifts from each other anymore. My stepmom's family draws names because there's so many of them. I know it may be too late this year for these ideas, but maybe next year?
 
Thanks, guys! That was a lot of help. I think I will try to make a movie basket, just gotta figure out a way to get a GC to a place in the little town they live in.
 
I got a movie basket from my class once, and we all loved it! It had some of the movie theater style candy, popcorn, GC, etc...it was a lot of fun! :)
 
Thanks for the great ideas! We do family group gifts too, but we usually do chocolates that we order by phone to be delivered to them just because we live so far away. If we ever end up moving closer to family, I'll definitely keep the movie gift idea in mind, I think it's perfect!
