Every xmas I've always appreciated something thoughtful from someone. Times are tight this year and though i'll only admit it to the internet, this year i'm hoping for cash.
Heck I'm 36yrs old and would love anything Snoopy...
Another inexpensive option for people is take note which rings or jewelry your wife no longer uses. Take the stones and have them remounted into something more current. I just had my wifes engagement ring remounted and added a whole bunch of diamonds from a necklace I got her. Kinda like getting her a new ring but only cost 200 bucks.
