Dashing through the snow, Jon Gosselin brought his new girlfriend along as he and his eight kids picked out their Christmas tree this past weekend. Â Despite negative criticisms earlier this year, Gosselin has seemed to settle down a bit, and he and Ross are looking forward to making the holidays this year about the kids. Â Although Gosselin doesn’t have a huge amount of money to spend on presents for his kids this year, a source told RadarOnline, “He wants to get them gifts that mean something and that tap into their interests.”
What are affordable yet romantic gifts for your partner?
Cupid’s Advice:
Holiday gift shopping can be stressful, especially when you’re on a tight budget. Â Cupid has some tips:
1. The enhanced coupon: A coupon for a free back rub maybe too cheesy, but giving your partner his favorite movie along with a coupon for his favorite homemade dinner is personal and special. Â You can always make a surprise out of the back rub afterward, too!
2. Utilize the five senses: Pick a small gift to stimulate each of your partner’s senses. Â For example, pick up his favorite artist’s new album, one of his favorite snacks and a framed picture of the two of you. Â It’s affordable and creative.
3. Exchange promises, not presents: Agree or vow to do something that will improve your relationship together, like setting aside one night a week devoted solely to you as a couple. Â It won’t cost you a thing, and will keep giving all year long.
