Gift ideas - got any?

Our family is doing a Cheap Santa exchange - everyone buys one $10 gift and we’ll do the pick/steal thing till all are opened. So, naturally, I did a Google for $10 gifts, and I found this site. I think these would qualify as a gift for someone who has everything… <snerk>

Who else is shopping on line already? What have you found that you care to share??

I like this for those of a literary bent. Or just twisted. Where else can you find an avenging unicorn or a Ben Franklin or an Oscar Wilde action figure?

Now I want an avenging unicorn! What a fun site! Thanks, Jah!!

Christ, I’ve gotta have that…

Yep, I declare the unicorn the winner.

Do they make frowny-face George Allen bobblehead dolls yet?

But dammit, you can’t interchange the other action figures with the Avenging Unicorn. Marx, Darwin, Wagner…Jesus.
Hmm…maybe with my Dremel.

Why settle with a bobblehead, when with some chloroform and a little stealth you could get the real thing?

PS- it helps if Randy Quaid owes you a favor. :smiley:

Outside of him taking up room, smelling the place up and getting…loser all over me…

Besides, I’d rather go with finesse. I’ll do it the good, tried-and-true caveman-bonking-cavegal-over-the-noggin-with-a-club routine.

It’s all about Archie McPhee, if you ask me.

I soooooo want an Avenging Unicorn. I’ll bet it goes on the wishlist of every Doper. We could start a mad panic for Avenging Unicorns! It’ll be another Tickle Me Elmo free for all!

Yep
Oh wait, that’s a smiley-face bobblehead George Allen…
What?
There’s more than one George Allen?
Wow. That bobbles my mind!
Sorry, I couldn’t resist. :smiley:

Damn, I thought those were the guys with the Black Death World Tour T-Shirt, but, sadly, no. :frowning:

I forgot all about Archie - yeah, something tells me I’m gonna be buying more than $10 worth of stuff…

Oh My God, those are awesome. You have no idea.

I’ve just been absolutely clueless as what to get my pre-med roommate. She has all the books and test study guides, and no other interests as far as I can tell. These are awesome and perfect. Maybe I’ll get her the black plague for Christmas this year…

Oh, I have to get one of those librarian action figures! Does anyone know of sites with funky gifty things like Archie McPhee, but based in Canada? I love stuff like that, but customs can be a pain in the ass with fees and duty.

FairyChatMom, too bad you can’t go up to $22.99 plus S&H !

They must be the same people that made my Jane Austen action figure (she comes with her own quill pen and writing desk).

I am thinking of this Ancient Egypt Pop-Up Calendar for my mom.

Unfortunately, my husband’s family wouldn’t get it. I don’t think they’ve ever seen the Holy Grail, and I’m pretty sure they might be offended. I, however, love it!!

You could get a few things from cheapass games.

We have hosed the Thinkgeek server, dudes.

It’s working fine now. So you can get back to shopping! :smiley:
