$50 Christmas Gift

Oh I dunno ... a $50 gift card wouldn't have "no worth" to me but rather ... wait for it ... $50! :W

Geez, I guess I'm gonna have to keep your gift card also for myself since you don't want it ... lucky me. :B

I would rather get something I don't want or don't need (I can always take it back), then a generic gift card that says "You aren't worth the time and effort to put any thought into you". 20 minutes in any camping world and I can come up with something my BIL would appreciate.

You are intitled to your opinion, BUT not everyone shares it in this case!! I would rather have a gift card than something I don't like or want.

Yeah, but $50 would only buy one set, good only for a single axle trailer - need 2 sets for a dual axle. Great gift but the OP would also want to make sure an Andersen Leveler would fit between the tires on the trailer in question - mine they won't, not even if trimmed. :(

Doh!


Not sure why I was thinking those came in a dual-axle set. It's been a while since I bought mine. Yup, $84 for the dual-axle def exceeds his limit. :)

While he can buy whatever he wants, a gift card also says "I put no thought or effort into this gift. I don't really care about knowing anything about you or putting any effort whatsoever into finding out what you may like."

Ah nuts, guess I'm gonna have to keep that gift card I got for you for myself. :W

Personally I'd much rather receive a gift card than anything else, especially something generic like VISA or Mastercard that can be used anywhere so I can put it towards what I really would like to have. :B

A nice set of Flashlights, always needed for camping. A good water regulator if he doesn't already have one like the adjustable Valterra. A camping mat/rug, weather radio if he lives/camps in a risky area, anyway, just some ideas off the top of my head.

Down payment on new truck or RV! :B

What do you know about him and his RV?
There are many small items that are useful, but he may have some of them.

You can just google RV Christmas gifts under $50 and you will get lots of hits.
But the key to any gift giving is to know the person, what they like, what they need that they might not necessarily buy for themselves.

Would be a decent sized box with weight... to cause a bit of mystery.
