See what’s playing at their local theater or 50yr old music act that’s strolling through town. 2 tickets, done.

Buy them $500 worth of $2.00 scratch off lottery cards.

Certain to please and fun for the entire family.

If you are a big spender, buy the whole roll for them.

I bought my dad and 80$ ancestry.com package. He literally had no hobbies, he works and sits in a chair and watches TV until he falls asleep every nite at 7pm. So I had no idea.

Airport shopping?

Books.

Starbucks coffee mug from whatever state/city you are taking off from and throw in a Starbucks gift card. Make it a tradition.

Brooks Brothers shite.

Perfume/Cologne.


Or just get them nothing.

I been flying home for a decade, usually cost me $500-$800 just get there (not counting opportunity cost of 2 lost days of travel). Making the effort to be there should be a gift enough.

I took mine out to Ruth's Chris for their present and they couldn't be happier. Beats the shite out of present they won't use.

Just tell them you love them and you’re thankful for everything they did for you. Maybe get your mom something since you fricked up her vagina. Just tell your dad I love you and you’re thankful for the influence in your life.

I would so I had a suggestion bc I feel sorry for your parents. Think of something you can wrap that says a gift you’ve selected will be forthcoming. Or borrow their car and go by a gift certificate to a place they like.

Then, make a note on your calendar to so this earlier and make it personal.
