I challenged myself to spend as little as possible this year without being "cheap".

Mom - cashmere throw (had a gift card - if west elm has any left they are awesome!) and some of those aqua globes for plants (big indoor plant person!)

Dad - all kinds of coffees because this is one thing he refuses to spend money on

Friends - framed pics of our group of girls plus magazine subscriptions or gift cards (personal and cheap to ship!)

Friends with kids - sent a "Family Fun Night" box with popcorn, bowls, puzzles, and games. Cheaper than buying toys they will use for 2 months and forget.

Husband - we bought ourselves a nice camera because we're heading to India over Christmas

For hostess gifts, I've done the cashmere throws or fresh flowers from a local florist that sells in bulk.
