McDonald's $1 gift certificate?
A DVD w/ a family photo album burned on it?

Oh, and have the family sing happy birthday and burn the video on the DVD as well.

Why the $1 limitation Deb?

Lots of stuff in those little bins at Rona. :mrgreen: There must be other stores with lots of little bins too...

Does he likes chocolates? Get him half of one from the Callebaut store in Crowfoot - you get the other half... :biggrin:

Maybe some public washrooms still dole out, umm, men's "little rubber devices to prevent issue" for a buck?
