My girl_friend's mom and aunt's birthday is coming up. What should I get them?

Flowers, safe bet

Are they twins?

Think about what they like and go from there or ask one of there friends or family what there interest are.Flowers are a good guess through,.jm

Check out homeware stores and stuff and see if they have any glass table centre piece things....cant really go wrong with them...I bought my mum a glass stand with the scented tea-candles and those little glass pebble things, looks pretty cool.

Nope. Her mom's b-day is on the 23rd and her aunt is on the 7th.

So, what kind of flowers? We talking about a bouqet?

Hmmm....that's not a bad idea. How much did you have to shell out, man?

Not much at all, I think the total all up for the piece + pebbles + candles = $30(AU) or so. Ill quickly have a look and see if I can find a picture..

Thanks, man.

By the way, I'm actually having second thoughts about this. Am I trying too hard giving them these gifts? My girl_friend might think i'm trying to suck up to them or something. She reads me like a book, i'm telling you.

Dunno about the sucking up part Maybe scout around for a present, then go back to your gf and say 'Hey, what if I get this for their birthday?' and show her, see what she thinks. But dont go overboard or it might look like you're trying too hard

Picture:

Dude, I want one of those now.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I just hope my gesture doesn't come off as too forced.

Haha cool. But yeah like I said, check around your nearest homeware stores, they're bound to have heaps of those types of things in all shapes and sizes.

Nothing.


Ceterum censeo OTF esse delendam.

I'd say, either flowers, Sented candle sets or perfume

Why nothing?

I'm going with nothing... Unless the Girlfriend has been really long term and it's getting serious to a huge extent... And even then make it a small token gift... Not to the aunt though just the mother.

I'd say nothing for the aunt, just a card, maybe, but get the mother a centre-peice or something (I really liked Mist's idea) but of course it depends how long you've been seeing your girlfriend...
