Birthday gift ideas for a 20-something woman

[Black]

I recall reading about something in a magazine at the barbershop a good while back . . . I think it was called "popcorn surprise."

Geez, all the horndogs are out tonight... I guess you all don't get out much... (

The desktop idea isn't a bad one either. Something functional AND pretty.

Giving gifts to female co-workers can be a lot like playing blind-man's bluff in a minefield. Use your knowledge of her, and get her something that she will use, enjoy, and appreciate. But is reasonably professional.

I vote for the Spa idea over VS. I'd do a gift to dinner at a nice restaurant before that.

If she doesn't get a case with the MBP (or maybe even if she does), a stylish case for that would be great, and work related.

Sounds a little trite, but we loved getting Harry & David fruit of the month last year as a gift (may be a bit pricey, and there were several of us to consume it). If not inappropriate for work, wine club at a local wine shop. Or a cooking class subscription if she is interested in cooking. (Could even be a one-time class.)


Good luck.

Dress me in a Saints' outfit and give me to her.

Unless she's a hog. That goes for $5000.

We just purchased as a group gift a desktop photoframe that can serve as a calendar and a clock for a 20 something woman co-worker. Maybe a little pricy (purchased Sony's LED line that looks great), but it's certainly one that they can use every day. We shared the cost.

As I think about it, this would be a nice fit with getting a Mac, if it fit the budget. Wouldn't have to be used at work, but could be. If that doesn't fit price-wise, some form of perpetual calendar or nice desk accessory might work.

For a woman in her twenties, a rabbit gadget is a great idea. Not the kind for wine, though.

Set a budget! (that's my motto).

Does she know the difference between sex and pancakes?


If not, invite her over to your place tonight for breakfast in the morning :wink:

Do you live in a climate where some nice "dress" gloves are needed? Very few things worse than cold hands on a woman.

A harmony one universal remote. Every woman I know NEEDS one.

A powered USB hub.

See if they make a USB "rabbit" . . . multi-tasking . . .
