They retail beteen 3.49 to 4.99, but I wouldn't pay more than $4 for them.Does your crew like Minis?  If so maybe you could pick a nice mini out for each one of them. Maybe buy a set of minis, one for each player, and then run a one shot or even start a campaign with PCs for those minis.  If you have it and haven't tried it Monte Cook's Arcana Unearthed is great and ahs soem great Minis, there is even a free adventure for 5th level PCs over on his website that recommends which minis to use for the Pre-gen characters ( <a href="http://www.montecook.com/arch_stuff81.html" target="_blank">http://www.montecook.com/arch_stuff81.html</a>.)Issues of Dork Tower are fun stocking stuffers for gamers.  Dice of course, maybe buy just 1 really special d20 (or whatever) that they would never buy for themselves cause of the price.Buy a PDF from RPGNow or your favortie supplier for each of them.  Make it one that is oriented to their favorite class or tactic or monsters.  You can read the reviews here and pick out some nice ones for about $5 a piece.Sigh, I love Christmas shopping.</blockquote>
