Mother's Day Gift Ideas - Nubblies.net Forums

Ugly Bastard · 05-07-2003, 03:56 PM

I was just informed today that apparantly Mother's Day is this Sunday. If any of you have a Mother like myself, then you know that she is the hardest person in the world to shop for.

So basically I/we need some gift ideas. Anyone can throw out anything they come up with.

I can tell you right now, I posses no money, so she won't be getting anything over $10.

Ideas?

Well as usual my father told me that I could get her flowers. But that dosent sound like somthing I want to go shopping for. But there is one idea if it is somthing you would want to get your mom. Then again that would probably cost more than $10.

Arsenic · 05-07-2003, 05:32 PM

No fucker, it's staying up you double posting motherfucker. All double posters will now be publically humiliated with verbally demeaning messages like this one. Don't double fucking post. Fuck you.

Go ahead and edit this msg...but I'll simply change it back. It's how things will be dealt with from now on.

I do not have any clues either!!
Im broke too.

rla128 · 05-07-2003, 09:32 PM

I'm thinking I'll be going to somewhere and making a bouquet of carnations, or something.

Or I could always just give her a hug...

Or an e-card!!!

I'll seriously sell you some board games for cheap. Does your mom like Boggle? How's $8.00 sound? How aboutOutburst, 15th anniversary edition? $12.00. These are steals. The games are sealed, vader, in their originally wrapping.

vader521 · 05-07-2003, 09:35 PM

Sounds good man I will think about it, being the cheap bastard that I am, I will get my sister to help out!

05-07-2003, 11:58 PM

That's fair, Vader. The games that I have for sale are as follows (click for description):
<UL TYPE=SQUARE><LI>Are You 4 Real - $6.00
<LI>Outburst - 15th Anniversary Edition - $12.00
<LI>Bratz - $8:00
<LI>GI Joe Commando Attack - $11.00
<LI>Jenga - $7.00
<LI>Boggle - $8.00[/list]
Games are the perfect Mother's Day gift. What more could a mother want than having the family crowded around a table for a fun half hour of gaming bliss? It cannot be topped and, when you deal with Orgazmo Productions, you save big. As previously stated, games are exactly as if you would order them from Amazon yourself (or purchase from Toys'r'Us (same thing)). Go ahead, make a purchase.

That's actually a terrible idea for a gift.

Q: What kind of mother wants a gift that will wilt in a week?

A: No kind of mother.

Unless you have no mother a'tall, I would suggest staying away from this gift. A much better idea is a board game. Mothers LOVE board games. Trust me.

Titan · 05-08-2003, 12:20 AM

Gaz -

Though I know this is quite possibly the worst case of easy and blatent exploitation of our budgets, go ahead and put me down for Outburst. I'm a fan of this game and I have played it with my parents a good bit. I need a mother's gift 'cuz I don't think I really ever get her anything, and it would be a nice surprise. I normally don't take kindly to swindlers, but I can make an exception for the intelligent ones.

05-08-2003, 12:56 AM

Haha, wow, I'll be honest, I did not expect anything at all to come of this. I'm very pleasantly surprised.

Titan · 05-08-2003, 01:23 AM

I thought you would be.

StDx · 05-08-2003, 03:48 AM

Orgazmo-
I'm pleased that you didn't put your Simpson's Clue on that list... I'll be expecting it for my birthday.

Oh God, I'm laughing so hard after reading that.

'Gaz-I noticed "Trivial Pursuit: 20th Anniversary Edition" is not on the list. Why is this, sir?

Father's Day quickly approaches. I think ahead.

vader521 · 05-10-2003, 06:10 PM

I just do not have any cash

Titan · 05-10-2003, 07:33 PM

I just do not care

rla128 · 05-11-2003, 01:09 PM

I got flowers

(I couldn't find the smiley I wanted, so I used this one).

Ugly Bastard · 05-11-2003, 01:26 PM

She got a $.99 card and a $.50 candle. I think that's fair...

-Ugly Bastard

Trout Sniffer · 05-11-2003, 09:08 PM

Where in the hell did you get a $.99 card from? My card cost me a whopping $5.29! I think I got screwed somehow. I should have gone to that dollar tree, it couldn't be expensive there.

Walmart child, Walmart.

I'm guessing you got your Mother one of those cards with a mirror and a balloon on the inside when she opens it up. Hence your $5.29.

Trout Sniffer · 05-11-2003, 10:36 PM

No, it really wasn't that special. I got it at Owen's. I was with my mom when I got it this morning, so it was kind of tough.
