Even with $8, it was hard to find a gift for their parents. Because of this, we visited the Dollar Stores, Dollar Trees, any where where they could get something big for very little money. When her brother was born we started taking him at about 4 years old.
We really enjoyed all the time spent together. We would go to McDonald's to eat, and then to my house to wrap gifts. What memories we have, as we lost my nephew 3 years ago. My niece has continued this tradition with her daughter, and she buys gifts for both sets of grandparents.

From the time my kids were old enough to walk, we went to yard/garage sales...they all wore their little 'fannypacks' w/ their own $$. As they got older, we hit the church bazars every year...they are now 19, 17, 15 & 13. My 13 yr old son still does this!
