Howdy, were doing a xmas exchange with our immediate family, but the gift has to start with the letter "C" and the gift or gifts, has to be under $20 in total. Any ideas? I prefer to keep it on the humorous, but PG rated,lol I already have 1 gift, it is a "C"redit card survival tool!! Its actually smaller than a credit card, but it has liek 11 tools on it!

Any ideas would be superb, have to have it for this wed or thursday I believe!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Oh my...let me get my thinking cap on! :lol:

Cake stand, candy, cookies, cactus, coffee beans, coffee press, coffee cup, cake decorator, cake pan, cake server, calculator, calling card, camera case, cameo pin, camera keychain, camp chair or some type of camping gear, cooler, candle gifts, canvas tote bag, cap (as in baseball?), some type of car accessory (charger, care care products, floor mats, gadget or ornament), carafe, playing cards or card shuffler, carry-on bag, casserole dish, cd cases or stands, ceiling fan pulls, cookbook, cellphone case, chain (necklace), change holder (for coins) like on a dresser or something, assorted chapsticks, charms (for wine bottle, glasses, or bracelets), cheeseboard, or even an assortment of cheeses and a cheese knife, fancey cheese grater, chess board, chip and dip set, anything chocolate, cigars, clock radio, cologne, comics, compact mirror, compass, computer bag or accessory, corn on the cob holders, corkscrew, cosmetic bag, cowboy hat, crossword books, crepe maker, crockpot, cupcake pan or cupcake accessories.

That's all I can think of right now. :hehe:

Damn, Carla....how long did that take?

You can rent out a "Carla"......she appears to be overly organized and energenic at the moment!

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip
