An utterly shallow and materialistic thread for Christmas gift ideas

Dizios is a cool game that is fun for families and can be played by children even if they are too young to read.  We got this for Christmas last year and we all really like it.

Qwirkle is another game by the same company.  We also received this as a gift last year.  It has been a big hit at our house for family game night.

Cards Against Humanity.  This game is definitely not appropriate for children but it is hilarious for adults.  It is played similarly to Apples to Apples.

Last year while playing this game I ended up having to explain to my mother-in-law the meaning of the word, "queef."  You have been warned.

    Diamond Candles.  So far I have burned through three of these.  All of them smell amazing, and the rings are really pretty.

    Thanks, I'm thinking that Cards Against Humanity might be a good one for my brother and sister in law. If it's not political, we might even be able to play it with our parents. :))

    What's the quality of the stuff at Sock Dreams? I don't know how much women's socks are usually, so how are their prices? Most of them I looked at are $10 a pair.
    I just placed my first order, so I don't yet know about the quality.

    @Mandrill, I've been happy with my socks from Sock Dreams so far and I have quite an array. They have some really pricey things, but most of their stuff seems at least reasonable compared to what you could get elsewhere. And the free shipping is nice.

    I got a magnetic wristband (to store nuts, bolts, nails, etc. and keep them out of the engine) for a relative who's always working on cars.

    And since lots of games have been mentioned, let me add Bang! Sorry, it's a Western theme, nothing sexy - sort of like Mafia but more organized. But uniformly every single person I've ever played with has loved it. I recommend the all-inclusive bullet edition, but the basic set is still great. Also you can learn Italian while you play.
