Groomsgift??? I hate them all!!!!

First, I want to apologize in advance for my rant :)

BUT, I have NO idea what to get them???   They are 20 something year old guys but all different, and I think ALL groomsmen gifts are lame- am I the only one?

Second, I could really care less to get them anything at all after this whole year

Lastly, the one thing I 'kinda' wanted to get was 'taken' by the last wedding we were at (we all have basically the same GM) ahhhh

Anyway, should I do something different for each of them OR leave it to FI???  I will just feel bad if I go all out on just the people I care about, you know???

Any thoughts, ideas, or help- god even motivation at this point- would be appreciated!

HMM~

I made/let DH pick the gifts for his GM and BM.  We decided to go the path of unique to each individual.  It was too difficult to find something for all 4 of them that they one of them didn't have yet.  

For the Best Man:
DH found a personalized sign for the BM to put up in his house.  (I will find the link for you)

For the groomsmen:
Flask (from www.ThingsRemembered.com)
cufflinks (from  www.cuff-daddy.com)
zippo lighter (from www.ThingsRemembered.com)

Also, for our officiant, who is a good friend, we got him a cigar lighter from a local shoppe here. 

All of them really liked their gifts.  If your guys are like our guys, they aren't going to be expecting too much.  It really is the thought that counts.

GL!

Those are great ideas d1rty!

ooooo...i've so been wanting that golf trunk organizer...but there's not enough room with our clubs back there too!

FI is getting his BM and the ushers all something different....one is getting a personalized bat from Louisville Slugger....he played baseball in college....i thought that was really original....he came up with it on his own...

I think that charging valets make great groomsmen gifts...

FI is thinking about getting his GM's a monogrammed leather toiletry travel bag and filling it with quality shave products.  Every guy could use that sort of stuff...

What are your guys' interests? Don't stress yourself out too much over it, you know how guys are, they'll probably be like cool....thanks. ;) kwim?  This site has gifts for groomsmen, see if you like any of the items listed here: http://www.gifts.com/occasions/groomsmen/35ohraicp

I would let FI worry about it.  You can make suggestions & show him this post, and I think you should decide how much to spend per person....but other than that... you have enough to worry about!!

personalized:

beermugs

flasks

moneyclips

we got our groomsmen personalized moneyclips that also have the little gadgets kinda like a swiss army knife
