my boyfriends sisters birthday is today and i don't know what to get her?
She is a Security guard. She has dreads and likes earthy type of modern clothes and i don't what to get her? i was thinking of a gift card from A.E (American Eagle) but that is such a thoughtless gift.
Oh, she;s turning 28

I don't think gift cards are thoughtless. I think they are very appropriate. Rather than getting someone something that they don't like or want you are giving them the opportunity to pick out something they want or need. I enjoy getting them!

Exactly - always pleased with gift cards, much better than something that I would never use or want

Does she like jewelry? You could get her that henna-woven type or something handmade...

Getting someone a gift card is always better than getting them something they would never use or something they'd return to get something else.

Did that make sense? :rolleyes:

What about the gift card with a home made card? If you make the card, she'll know you spent time and consideration into it... and she get to buy what she wants with the giftcard!

Gift cards are THE BEST!! What fun, shopping with money not from your pocket??

I think a gift card would be nice. :)

Do you have an Urban Outfitters near you? That sounds like it would fit her quite well.

i think maybe i will make a card for her, and give her a gift card. i mean you are all right. i don't want to get her something she will take back or never use.
Plus i like making cards, since i've started scrapbooking i have most of the tools to make a great card!
:D
