I always send Ribbon gift albums when I don't know what to get someone.. It allows them to choose a gift from a specific "album." The price is never shown to the recipient, and they have some awesome (mostly name-brand) items to choose from. I've never had a disappointed recipient! :-) I get them from a friend's business at www.ctaube.ordermygift.com
I like getting pictures developed for loved ones. Especially now that almost everyone has a digital camera - most people have their pics on their computer not in picture frames! That is my idea :)
