Inevitably about this time of year the family start asking what to buy me for Xmas

I like camera thingies

Any good ideas for gifts < $100 ?

$100 gift voucher towards your next spend?

I always have the same problem with my family because I always buy what I want / need well before any christmas or birthday, they learnt to give up as soon as I started working

Im not a fan of gift vouchers or cash gifts personally, I think they are a lazy present :umm:

I should have also added that I am always a fan of cash - I have a number of purchases I would like to make (flash wave gear and lenses etc) and cash will help with the gear aquisition.

I agree they do seem a bit lazy but I hate seeing family or friends buying me something just for the sake of buying an actual gift at christmas, I think it's the worse outcome.

I bought some USB Keys (16Gig) which look like a tiny Nikon DSLR, but are made from rubber.
The lens is the actual USB key.
They were around $20 each from memory from Top Buy.

How about a tattoo of William Webb-Ellis on your ar...? You've probably already got one. Is this going to be like Monty Pythons Holy Grail?
