Poor last minute Christmas gifts:

2. DVDs from the bargain bin
3. Air freshener
4. A plain ol' mouse, mousepad, or keyboard

Now, I'm not saying that the “poor” last-minute gifts are horrible – especially if someone's specifically requested them on their Christmas wish list. However, if you're running out the door and don't know what else to do – there's probably a nearby store that carries some of those “last-minute” items I listed as great (which, again, isn't to say that they're necessarily great for everybody on the planet, just a bit different than what you might find in the last-minute shopping aisle). Me? I'm done with this year's Christmas shopping. That's not going to stop me from going to the mall tomorrow for any last-minute sales, but… at least I know to watch out for last-minute auctions.
