What is a great, cheap wedding gift for someone who has it all?
My Husband's cousin is getting married this weekend, and we are tight on a budget. She is registered at really spendy stores. My problem is finding something unique, and creative, but with taste. She is registered at Crate and Barrel, Target, and Macy's. She is 25, so something for the younger couples would be ideal. Any ideas? They are going to Jamaica for their Honeymoon. They have the money, I just always feel left out because they do have the extra pocket change. I don't want the typical gifts such as picture frames, toasters, photo albums etc. ANYTHING $25 - $50 would be better. Something easy peasy lemon squeezy.

Why do people give cheap wedding gift???
I myself am planning a wedding. It's costing me about $35,000 give or take. (And that's not a big number for a wedding) Now I understand if you are travelling super long distances (I have a guest coming from France to my wedding in Canada) but people that live by me shouldn't have a problem. Right? If you break it down, I think it will cost me about $230 per person. Now, whenever I go to a wedding, I try to find out how much it cost for a plate, add 15% or more. I thought that was what everyone did. I know that maybe not everyone has tones of money, but it's a wedding! I plan on doing it once! Isn't the point of weddings (other then getting married) to help start off a couple? When it was my fiance's brother wedding we gave him $900 between us. He's Family! I see people asking "what is a cheap gift for a wedding?" ... and I can't help feel insulted for the wedding couple. Tell me am I out of line with my thinking??? Should I expect only $20 gifts from people? Look people! are you telling me that you would give your sister a mixing bowl on her wedding??? If that's true... you guys are cheap! I'm glad that my friends show up, and I love all of them... I would never be crude and get them a stupid salt shaker for their wedding. Wow you guys are mean! I'm not a money bags myself but I never go cheap on a wedding, especially for a close friend or relative. You think I'm greedy? We'll see how you feel when you get a bill for $35 000 for your wedding! You guys think I'm selfish... For food only it's costing me $100 per person. It's true that I pick a place that's nicer then a park and/or a restaurant. But where I'm from it cost at least $90 to feed people in a banquet hall. I don't have the space in my home for 150 people. I'm surprised with all the suggestions that I'm selfish... I'm really nice... and totally not a ******* spoiled brat. Really. I work hard, and just want my one day. I just expected people to know how much it cost and try to help pay off the wedding. I'm not getting married for money or anything. No one is helping me pay for my wedding either... no mommy and dadday with a wedding account. I'm sorry if I sound selfish but to behonest... I've always given a lot, so I expect the same. I treat people like how I hope they treat me in return.
