consider these quick, easy ideas:

• Movie gift certificates can

be purchased online or over the
phone. As your gift, on a card
draw a picture of the tickets
(which you can conveniently, and
honestly, say have "already been
ordered"). Then add, "And to top
it off, you get whatever you want
from the snack bar once we
arrive!"

Just about everyone likes
some kind of magazine, a

copy of which likely is sitting
around the house. Find one of
those annoying subscription cards
in your husband's favorite maga-
zine and fill it out (how nice to
be able to check "Bill me later,"
which means you can dash out
and drop the form in the mailbox
in 2 minutes). To give as a gift,
wrap a ribbon around the current
issue along with a note, "The next
one is already on its way to you."

Who doesn't love a mas-
sage or manicure or pedi-
cure? All you have to do is call

and schedule the appointment for

someone you love. (You can pay
in advance with a credit card, or
put cash in an envelope for the
recipient.) For the gift, simply
write on a card, "All your cares
will be massaged away at 7:30
p.m. this Tuesday."

A gift basket is easy and
fun and works well for friends,
teachers, neighbors. Simply find a
basket or pretty bag. Add a bit of
tissue paper and look around the
house. Gift baskets are great
because you can put in a mish-
mash of stuff and it will all work:
a favorite jar of jam; a nice
notepad; a treasured book (don't
worry if it's used, just write, "I
loved reading this and hope you
will, too!" -- then it looks like
you're so generous you're parting
with a real gem, instead of being
the forgetful bonehead you really
are); a handful of fresh flowers
from your yard in a teacup; a few
greeting cards tied together in a
bow; a nice-smelling soap; a
candy bar; a funky lip balm.
