Hi,
I am able to find nice gifts that I can get good deals on for women, but I having trouble with men. Specifically, the mailman, garbage men, newspaper, etc. I wish I had enough money to spend $20-25 on each, but I don't. I know there's the whole thing of whether or not mailmen are able to accept gifts, but ours is. What does everyone else do? Any suggestions? Right now my only thought is some sort of gift card, but I can't really get any deals on those. I was going to do the restaurant ones, but the gift certificate is in $25 increments with the $5 free one. Thanks!

Get them a $5 mcdonalds arch card. They can get a couple of the new cafe drinks to warm them on their outdoor jobs.

One other thing you might do (which won't help you this year, though) is shop the sales after Christmas at Target. I have been able to get nice, thick fleece blankets for a few dollars which make nice gifts for men.

office depot had a flashlight filled with tools for around $8

i agree that food GCs make good gifts or food gift baskets / gift sets

you could get a nice pair of winter gloves for anyone that works outside

winter car survival kit (flashlight, ice scraper, de-icer spray, etc)

winter drink set (person i know did this and included regular coffee mug, travel hot drink cup, coffee, tea bags, hot chocolate mix and marshmellows ... really cute)

bottle of nice wine or alcohol if you know they drink
