    Well, nobody has literally EVERYTHING – they may think they have everything they want and/or need, and it may look to you like they have everything you can imagine. But there is always something that they don't have, which, more importantly, they would want. It's just a question of thinking hard and figuring something out.

    For example, they won't have your memories. And they probably won't have all of your photos. So maybe you can put together an album of photos that you have of them -- by themselves, with you, in a big group, whatever. That's something they won't have, which you can give them, that they would appreciate. And it's something that you made, so it's got that added premium of being heartfelt and sincere.

    Or what about something rare and collectible, that both of them will get a kick out of? The thing about collectibles is that the joy comes from possession itself, not the utility of the item. And couples frequently have some common interest, and they would really enjoy having a collectible related to that. Identify what it is, and get something that would catch their fancy. If the couple loves books, then a first edition of their favourite book or something else by their favourite author might make a great gift. Or if they are tech geeks, maybe an old computer, say an Apple II or an Atari, would be up their alley. If they are music fans, a complete set of vinyl records, or maybe all the singles, by their favourite band, would work. With the Internet, chances are good that with enough effort, you will be able to find some collectible that they will like.

    So happy thinking, happy figuring, and then happy shopping!

    a guy who makes a fabulous variety of money likes the finer issues - think of top of the selection no longer quantity. with out understanding your climate, funds, age, etc. that's stressful to recommend yet right here is going: leather-based gloves A cashmere sweater A fashion designer headband a appropriate bottle of wine a large e book some in demand activity or visit Brookstone or the sharper photograph and communicate over with a sales clerk - they have superb issues

    How about a night out...give them gifts cards for dinner and the movies. Or, how about a night at the movies indoor...give them a basket with a bottle of wine (or a six pack of soda if they don't drink), a gift card for Blockbuster, and some microwave popcorn and movie candy.

    Try experiences. Something like a hot air balloon ride, a spa trip or skydiving. These are two great sites for those trips.

    www.xperiencedays.com

    www.signaturedays.com

    Also, try these sites. They ask you questions about the people you're looking to buy a gift for and make suggestions!

    www.gift.com

    www.findgift.com

    www.personalshopper.com

    I hope this helped!

    famous rockers like "The Stones" "James Taylor" etc
