This is It. If there are a few more people you need to buy gifts for, you could be in difficulties. What is that, you say? Tell Me Girlfriend can help? Yes! You are right! We have a selection of gifts you can give right from your computer, print out and present with a flourish. Talk about the Good New Days!

Gift Certificates. They always fit and they are always popular. Here are some goodies:

ThinkGeek (ThinkGeek.com ) sells gift certificates from $10 to $150. You may choose to email the gift certificate to the lucky Geek on a

particular day (last day of Hanukkah? Christmas Day?) or print out their blank form and fill it in for in-person gifting.

Audible.com (www.audible.com) is a wonderful online provider of audio books. You may choose a gift certificate - audible.com will tell you how much the average book or subscription costs

 - or select an audiobook or program yourself for the recipient and audible.com will notify him or her by email. There is nothing like an audiobook during those hours in the car, whether on a long trip to see family or for business, or on short errands.

iTunes Gifts are always popular, especially with the younger set. When nothing else pleases a teenager, an iTunes Gift Certificate will always be accepted. Perhaps grudgingly accepted, but accepted nonetheless. You can print a certificate immediately. Then, of course, they can scorn you for not having the plastic card. In that way, you will actually make them even happier. You know it's true!

Saving Dinner (www.savingdinner.com) is a gift that would be wonderful for the right person. In fact, Suzanne would like everyone to know here and now that she will happily accept it. Each week, Saving Dinner gives you five to six menus geared to your family size,

diet restrictions and seasonal produce. Menus are simple, family-friendly and stick to wholesome ingredients. Saving dinner will even give you a shopping list each week. The tricky thing is that you must know your giftee. For example, we don't suggest giving these to a daughter-in-law! However, for your friend who is finding that getting dinner on the table can be a real challenge - and won't be offended - Saving Dinner can be a wonderful gift.

In our land of abundance, often the best gift we can give is to help someone else. In Tell Me Girlfriend's Reach Out boutiques, we suggest many worthy opportunities. We especially like the

opportunities available at the Heifer Project and World Vision. If you would like to leave the choice of the beneficiary up to the recipient, Just Give allows you to specify the dollar amount, and the giftee to decide on the charity. Just Give has many well-known and lesser-known charities available, and there is sure to be one to make everyone happy.

And there you have it. No matter how late you are, you can still give a meaningful, appropriate gift. Please, just make sure you aren't shouting “just a minute!” from the printer as the family is assembled to exchange gifts!

Your Just-In-Time Girlfriends,

Alex and Suzanne
