Christmas gifts can quickly become pricey, especially if there are lots of people to buy for. One option is to forgo the individual gifts and do a family gift instead. Here are a couple of ideas I found through Crate & Barrel:

“The Cookie Kit”
Cookie Jar: 24.95 Cookie Mix: 5.95
You can make this as simple or complex as you like. Fun additions could be: cookie cutters, colorful spatulas, sprinkles or frosting.

“Movie Lovers Kit”
Air Popcorn Maker: $39.95 3 Popcorn Seasonings: $7.95
Fun additions: a popcorn bowl, boxes of candy, and a favorite movie.
