We give our 4 sons “United States of America” - cash. Yep I know this might sound a little cold but sure makes it easy and we we don’t get any returns. 😁

Reminds me of the "hat lady" at LSL Market night (she hasn't been back since the restarted market night). All her "God Bless America", Vietnam Vet, WW2 Vet etc etc etc hats were made in China. My Brother In Law (a Vietnam vet) asked her about that and she got pretty nasty. Kinda like all the $1.50 US Flags people put on their lawns that are all made in China I guess. It's the "thought" that counts.

Probably should look closer but when the grandsons ask for something specific I am getting it for them regardless of where it is made.

That's what we give to our 4 grand daughters. And they enjoy being able to buy what they want.

in the beginning my wife and I would select thoughtful gifts that we wanted to give the grandkids.... then all of a sudden, we started getting a shopping list from the parents
