    candy has a good point, gift cards are always a safe gift and if u have enough points on your credit card you can get holiday gifts for everyone at work like i do :)).

    Just make sure you are not buying the ones that have epiration dates built into them. They drop value very quickly.

    epiration definition: committing acts of piracy online.

    There are both temimusdik and untemimusdik singles guys. Obviously you have been dating the “un”s.

    I’m a man.

    A wallet or a shawl is a great idea. Macy’s has great varieties of these!

    Any gift should be something that the receiver would love to have but doesn’t feel him/herself desrving to spend money and get it for him/herself.

    Freudian slip, but still a very telling line. I passed by a house on OP this weekend and realized that when I said I wanted a pony, what I really meant was…… (anybody care to finish the sentence?)

    A nook at B and N? WOW, that is a nice gift!

    When I go, I need to take whatever seat is available (lucky you, Goq!)

    Shows what I know, Goq. I thought you meant to write BOOK (but had a type-o and it came out as nook).

    Wow, am I clueless. I really need to get out of the CR more often

    Sacrilege – Bourbon/Scotch/Wine of the month club?? What’s that? sounds interesting…

    This is an odd time of year to ask about gifts for men on a frum web site. Are a lot of boys born in December, so that everyone is wondering what to give them for their birthdays? Chanukah ended almost a week ago, so it can’t be that. That leaves … Tu B’Shvat? No one ever gave me a TBS gift.

    Thanks so much, everyone, I got a lot of good ideas! Keep ’em coming, I’m sure others would love to hear more (including myself)!

    nfgo3- birthdays, anniversaries, “just because”, and in general it’s interesting to hear what people have to say about the topic.

    Generally, all I really want from my family in terms of gifts are a card and a kiss. I’m pretty good at spoiling myself. Besides my wife is incapable of shopping for clothes for me, except for very casual wear. She and I have completely different opinions on what I [should] like in terms of suits and ties etc. She never learned enough about fountain pens or live bootleg chazzanut to make an aquisition there either (BTW conversely, I can’t buy her clothing or jewelry either without her being with me. Our tastes are that different). But there are two things I hope my family, specifically my wife, buys for me while I can still use them; a sterling silver menorah and a nice Megillah. I want her to buy them for me so when my children inherit them, the story will be “My mother bought this for my father . . .” She and I should be joined together in the tangential religious legacy we leave our children.

    Its a club where you sign up (aka pay) and every month they send you a new bottle of bourbon/scotch/wine. There is also have the 3 month plan and the 6 month plan (some have 9 month). Some clubs vary in price depending on the “chashivus” of the bottles they are going to send you. I think the average year club runs at about $720 or $60 a month (thats for Bourbon)

    BTW, I think I know who you are 😉

    My wife got me a really lovely dolly two birthdays ago. She put a red ribbon on it. Now I can move appliances easily.

    No, no, you guys are missing the boat by miles. What (I think) Sac is saying is, each of you have an element of someone that she did (or is about to) date, so with each layer that gets revealed in the CR, Sac sees someone she knows.

    What she does not know yet, is that at the core of each of us, lies the same thing. Its just the wrapping thats a little different.

    It does seem that way sometimes…

    I didnt think I dated you, I thought you were a guy, who… never mind LONG story 😉

    BTW, I changed my mind who I think you are (partially because the first victim is engaged), LOL.

    Someone sent me a resume of a guy and from the description I was like, o gosh this is for sure WIY.

    BTW, Ronsr…. in all this, your line was almost overlooked. Very funny!

    (But I think I’m the only one who got it, as few of us have ever done any warehouse work, so who would know what a dolly is?)

    Is a dolly that uncommon? What do other people use to move heavy stuff? Israelis?

    (Or is it just in Chicago that all the movers are Israeli?)

    Its not that its uncommon, its just that few people know what they are called. They see them, but just don’t know the tech name for it.

    The only reason I know, is because my first job was in a whse.

    You cant even get the stuff anymore. Who still sells them?

    P.S. I have a bottle but its being saved for the right occasion.

    Yes I do want it to be saved for a special occasion. I dont think it makes sense to open such an expensive and chashuv bottle for just any occasion. My father is waiting for me to give him an excuse to open it 😉

    No. You asked:

    “Do your “no’s” mean maybe?”

    So I said:

    “Do you want it to?”

    But if it makes you feel better to think so… 😉
