Here is what is going on. We like Christmas very much, but just like you sometimes we have to get someone something really awesome on a kind of skimpy budget. And so we bring you (duh duh du duhhhh!) MARCEL'S FAVORITE THINGS!!!!!
You see, Marcel is awfully stylish (she lived for 6 months in Italy don-cha-know) and she must buy a gazillion Christmas/Christmukkah/Festivus gifts on a college students budget. Just in case you don't know what that is, it means that she is somewhere between Target and making people ornaments with her leftover Macaroni and glitter paint. So, this Christmukkah season she will be providing you with 25 awesome gift ideas for under $25 (or at least really close...sometimes awesome just can't be given restrictions).
Now, you might be saying "Wait! Today is the 2nd, and the 25th idea would be on Christmas day which wont help us if we aren't shopping for Hanukkah gifts!" and you would be right. But, lucky you, we already knew that and we have implemented a strategy to make up for this.
First, today you will be getting a couple awesome ideas in one and here is why:
1. We started the blog today, and although time travel would be ideal it is not an option.
2. Yesterday Johnjay and Rich did not, I repeat DID NOT, have a 'War of the Roses', so because I was sad and you were sad about that we should both be rewarded today with Marcel's favorite things.
(P.S. if you don't know what Johnjay and Rich is, it is only a really fantastic morning show that you can listen to here all day, everyday or I guess on the air if you live in a place that plays wonderful things like that!)
3. It's Friday, Friday and we want to give you something awesome on Friday!
So, now...without further ado, here is the beginning of the much anticipated Marcel's Favorite Things!!
Marcel here!
So my first of 25 gifts under $25 is.......
Iphoto calendars, books, and albums!
This is such an easy and great gift for friends, and especially FAMILY! Bethany and I are total Mac users, (sorry PC) so I recommend Apple's version, however there are other companies that make personalized calendars, books, and picture albums as well. The calendars start at only &19.99 for a twelve month calendar! Now if that isn't a deal at its finest I don't know what it is!!
