Mother in Law Holiday Gifts (or anytime gifts) for Under 1 Buck ~ copyrighted by Quasimother.com

My little dears, if you don't have enough dough for that antler-headed mother in law of yours, then mix up the hunt by shopping for these to-be-cherished gifts that can be had for under a buck.

Mean mother in laws love to blow off steam, so why not invest that hard earned dollar in a bag of balloons? So many pluses, too! They come in a pantheon of shades and sizes - from winnie to round. And your favorite old windbag will just love this smart gift.

What about a pink or blue bag of disposable razors of bush-hog strength so that your mean mother in law can tackle those hairy legs, arm pits, brows and nostril hairs?

What about a fish refrigerator magnet? Say a trout - or a handsome halibut? Mother in laws adore gifts that they can relate to.

There is nothing more handy for a mean mother in law than a new, tight jock strap. Of course, if you've got a mean mother in law, you don't need to be reminded of how fast they can go through these, do you?

A mustache trimming set would be ultra nice. She can even use it on those pesky ears that are sometimes overflowing with stray hairs.

Duct tape. Is there a more thoughtful gift on the planet when it comes to mean mother in laws? You can extend this thoughtful gift by taking it a step further and using a bit of the duct tape to wrap up her gift.

What about a flimsy fly swatter? It may seem a bit weird at first, but think about this.... Aren't you getting tired of getting hit over the head with her number 9 hand? A fly swatter is much kinder, as well as less painful.

When you enter the store, charge straight for the artificial fruit and veggies and locate the biggest, fattest cucumber in the bin. You certainly won't be in a pickle with this thoughtful gift that will last her a life time.

Here's one! An address book filled in with all her close friends. This makes a lovely gift because a) it doesn't take long to fill in two names and, b) your name isn't in the book. A subtle hint, you think?

Grab a bargain when you purchase a colorful punching ball. Generally, these babies can be had for about 50 cents a piece in most dollar stores. The gift is multi-purpose. a} Punching balls make a beautiful, colorful gift and, b) Mother can work out her frustrations on the ball rather than you and, c) The ball can be hidden beneath your shirt to serve as a mock-pregnancy before you yank it out and say, " Surprise!" .

Although mean mother in laws tend to snap up their grandchildren and nestle them to their bosoms, the 'pregnancy' phase doesn't set well with the mean mother in law because the mother-to-be receives all the attention - at least until junior pops out. Those tense moments that flicker over mother's face can be priceless. But take care not to extend the playful exchange too far, or you may be the one who ends up getting their balloon popped - or in this case, ball.

Keep in mind that it's not the amount of money that one spends on a gift - it's the thought that counts!
