What should I get my (used to be) coach for Christmas?

) December 17th, 2010

My dad’s a pro basketball player and when he found out that I was going to be doing basketball in middle school he sort of took over the volunteer coaches job. The volunteer coach was also one of the basketball team members father’s but he really was no good. And now, well my dad is pretty much the new coach. I mean it isn’t like he was getting paid any way though right?? But anyway, now all the volunteer coach does is sit around and watch practice unless my dad needs while he coaches. I feel sorta bad and I can only imagine what kinda things he and his daughter say about it after practice.. But anyway, as you know Christmas is coming up and I got my whole team something.. But, DANGIT! I forgot to get the coach a gift!! And today I was on facebook with his daughter and I was kinda talking about the gifts I was going to bring for the team. And so his daughter says to me “Oh you are so sweet! Anything for coach?” I was sooooo in panic that I just stopped chatting with her because I felt so bad and I didn’t want her or the coaches feelings to get hurt. But anyway, the point of this is that I need to know something to get my basketball coach really quickly and Publix, Kroger, CVS, etc.

A box of See’s Candies is always a welcome gift.

Or if you MUST get it at one of these stores immediately, get a nice big good looking coffee mug, fill it with red and green Hershey’s kisses and put a nice bow around it.

Or the same coffee mug with a package of Xmas themed coffee (I’ve seen all sorts of “Xmas blends”)

Or get one of those big round containers that have a variety of different candied nuts in there (like toffee nuts, chocolate covered almonds etc.) Big bow on top.

Or one of those great big tins of flavored popcorn. Big bow.

Or a bottle of sparklin cider, which you will wrap up in clear red cellophane with a big bow.

What about one of those cell phone charging mats, where you can just put a cell phone or iPod on it, and it charges? Or a gift card to go out to dinner? All the places you listed sell all sorts of gift cards.
