What kind of gift do you prefer?
 

Is the general board slow today or am I just hyperactive? Anyway, this question is based 70% on curosity and 30% on boredom...

What's your "ideal gift?" Money or an actual item?

Some people prefer an actual item because it shows sincerity on behalf of the giver. Others prefer money because that way they can get exactly what they want (budget pending). Anyways, post your preference and any other thoughts that may follow...

Money is usually good with me unless the person knows what I like.

it doesn't matter to me, but i prefer money, so i can get what i want..

Items...especially something original

money is material...

the last time i got a gift was on my last birth day...IN AUGUST!!!


i dont get much gifts:baby:

I'll take any gift I can use, or that is useful to me.

money... hey, money is an item... and I like it :sneaky:

But really, half the time I get an item, I don't like it... err, unless it's like from my parents who know what I like and will actually buy it... whereas most of my relatives on my dad's side hate videogames and the like and instead opt to waste their money on stuff I dislike... and I know it's "the thought that counts", but I don't care about the thought when any other time they see me they hound me about school or how I play too many videogames, which just puts me in a bad mood :burger:

When I was younger, I prefered getting items from friends just cuz..... well I dunno.... *shrugs*

but now that I don't have any friends (or at least I say that) I don't get any gifts from the friend group :p

So... money money money... A man's gotta pay for his drugs someway, y'know...

Well money, unless I tell them I want something. I find that if I ask my parents for a game they might give it to me, but If I ask them for 50 bucks...they are not so giving. And I dont charge tax so it would be cheaper...

an Item no doubt

Why? Because some items are priceless, while money will always have a price.

All I care about are dblns... :beat:

Money... well, money or teddy bears. Half the time I end up regifting or returning gifts anyway.

I would say money but 90% of the time, I wind up using the money for something like gas or other expenses and never getting something I really want out of it. At least with an item, I get something I can hang onto for a while. And if I really want something else, I can always return. ;)

I think it really depends on who the gift is from. I like getting money from my family because I use it for stuff I want, but if it's from a friend I like gifts. Giving friends money just doesn't sound right.:bunny:

Money.

That's what gift certificates are for :D
They're sort of money and sort of a gift.
I love gift certificates to the mall.
You can buy almost whatever you want, but someone had to go to the trouble of actually getting it, so it's personal.

It is all about getting money. There is no point of getting something that you do not like, so money is the perfect alternative.

i wish i could get doubloons

someone stole mine:(

*robery robery!*

im serious too someone get xantar: the gametavern officer

hell seek justice and refuge for me.

money, unless i tell one of my friends to get me something. generally my friends don't know wut i want:D

i no what to get u cus im ur best friend in the whole wide world

o really? then if ur my best friend tell me what my girlfriend's name is. ha.

I like to get an item as a gift. It is more fun to open. However, if someone does not know me very well... i enjoy gift certificates. Money is good from grandparents.

money is also good from strangers:rolleyes:

MMMMM, $$$

Hard to choose... I think it all depends on the item I would get! I would prefer a nice personal gift to some money... but when it's something I would never use, I'd prefer the money!
