Bring the mom some flowers and the dad a bottle of whiskey.

The good stuff, from an actual meat shop, not from a store.


Not a bad idea.

On a serious note, give them the OT's favorite pressure cooker:

A Victoria's Secret gift card. A win for her Mom and her Dad, or just get the Mom's sizes and go pick out something for her might be even better.

Is your girlfriend black? Dude listen to me. If your girlfriend is black do not get her parents one of those Madea movies on DVD. I did that with my ex and it was not pretty

Being that you are a Bama fan... a gift card to the dentist is probably appropriate.

Giftcard to a nice restaurant? Do they drink? If so, a gift basket with assorted beer, wine and/or liquor

How long you been with your girlfriend? Any Christmas after your 2nd anniversary is a pretty good time to test the waters and see how ridiculous you can get with a gift while still remaining in their good graces.

A box of condoms for her dad and new mop for the mom is a good place to start.

Seems like a high risk/no reward type situation to me.

I'll admit that I may have a different relationship with my in-laws than most.

If you don't think you can pull it off, don't try it.

While I think that it'd be hilarious myself, her dad has a very dry sense of humor/personality. Great guy, and I love him to death, but I'm not sure he'd think something like that was all that funny.

Liquor if they drink; a fruit basket/cheese of the month kind of thing if they don't. Both are safe and relatively cheap
