I have never been to a bridal shower before, I have no idea what to get my cousin as a gift. (it has come to my understanding that you bring gifts to bridal showers and money to weddings) I haven't the slightest idea what to get her, or even what type of gift would be appropriate!! Thoughts, ideas? What are some of the gifts you girls, or guys, received at your bridal shower?

Answer
Have you asked if they are registered somewhere? If so that would be the easiest thing, just pick something off there in your price range. If not then it's typically something for the home. If they have an established home and you don't think you could find something they would like then gift cards could work too, typically some department store or like a bed, bath, and beyond place. The typical gifts I see at showers at pots & pans, towels, kitchen gadgets, bedding, picture frames, vases....those are usually picked off a registry though. It's considered rude to put registry info on an invite so call and ask someone if they are registered anywhere. Save you some stress.

What are some American gadgets or gifts?

A friend from Japan is here and is only going to stay for a week. We're going shopping thurday and she wants some sort of American gadget or suvinour. Something that we have here but not at Japan. It's sad that I can't think of anything. Can you think of any? It can't be too big or heavy to carry, since she's going all the way back to Japan.

Answer
There are certain types of candy and food they don't have there she could buy something like that.
