KSAZ TV Fox — Arizona Morning - Last Minute Holiday Gift Ideas

We were asked to give out some quick and inexpensive last minute gift ideas for Christmas.

Hmmm, how can you make something meaningful quick and inexpensively. If you've got time to plan, then meaningful and inexpensive gifts can be accomplished. But if you wait until the last minute your options are limited.

We suggested giving:

Special Ornaments (our kids love receiving them from out-of-town relatives),

Home Baked Cookies or Breads (who can resist them)

Personalized Gift Baskets - we gave 5 ideas of inexpensive gift baskets that we have made. Here are a couple of links with some helpful ideas:

TheCustomBasket.com

Homemade-Gift-Basket-Ideas.com

Pre-Owned Gifts - We know this is a touchy topic, but gently used cookbooks and toys can be enjoyed just as well as new ones. This web site will help you find thrift stores in your zip code: TheThriftShopper.com

A Gift From the Heart - Write a personal letter sharing your hopes, dreams and appreciation for the recipient.
