This question can be answered my hobbyists or providers.
As Christmas time approaches, I was wondering what is the MOST helpful gift you can give a provider ?

Re: You are running for SPOTY aren't you....LOL [e]

CURLYQ............the spoty thing is getting WAY lame!....zzzzzzzzzzzz!
If your IQ allows it, try and post something of value, or STFU.

AAA Membership is an awesome idea
gift card for Oil changes or gas or groceries are always a plus
Painting classes or tickets to shows
Candles
A kindle or books  ( I still love my books)
Dance classes.
I could use an IPAD..  My lap top is dying! but these seems extravagant..
Movie tickets

I am just merely playing along...

Only seems extravagant until you meet someone who loves the bidding site where you pays for bids and is a genius at scoring things for dirt cheap!
He just got himself an iPad for $30 some dollars!!

Does AAA have a gift card option, because that's something every person needs especially providers who travel alone. Also, a phone charger and mini blender saved my sanity one week when I lost mine in the airport and had no blender in my suite. Gift cards are actually the best thing, because you know she can get what she actually needs vs. some shit she is never going to use.

Just keep up the "tough guy" act and you might overtake FIDIOT yet.  It is by far your best hope, not to mention the strategy that makes you look the stupidest.

Go Dungy!!!

Morning Alyssa;
   Thanks for your ideas. Nice to know about the Starbucks cards, I have a few lady friends who enjoy their coffee and I wasn't aware you could email the gift that way. Which brings up an issue with attempting to give holiday gifts at all, namely that one needs info in order to send a gift to a woman. I have some friends whom I have that kind of info for but many others for whom I don't. And many of them I don't yet know well enough to ask for it.
   One option is to simply wait until I see them again but many are touring ladies that I don't see all that often or else they are women in cities I travel too, but again sometimes not all that often. Then there is the issues of wanting to get a gift to someone at a particular time, ie Xmas.
   One method I often use is to give gift points at P411 for those women who use that site. I use them not only for holidays but also birthdays or even as a thank you to someone who has given me a glowing reference etc.
                          Regards.......RR

Excellent points London! And BTW....nice to see you posting again........Regards......RR

But it ain't today.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.................

Now they're going to give the maid the sex toy and us a broom!!!!

You keep this shit up, and you might have a chance after all. My money is on you Dungbeetle, keep it up. Show us just how tough (stupid) you can be.

and I thought it was the perfect gift, all sorts of assorted colors and flavors, not that you would ever give a CBJ in order to taste one. lol

Now get to posting Blabber Mouth, the last I looked I had passed you as the board's biggest blabbermouth, and we all know what pride you take in the title.

Be appreciated since its a gift... Most providers do have "Gift Listings" section on their website that's a good place to look... Me, I love Chanel... Anything Chanel!!! But when traveling a SWA gift card or anything to do with travel expenses is appreciated... But over all providers should be grateful a client even considers to give a gift!! Lol  

It's so romantic.  

I've already decided when and it is today.
Also decided who's lame.....YOU!

A mini blender?

Maybe it's rude in the civvie world, but I can't imagine that any provider wouldn't just love a nice thank you card with a butt load of benjamins inside (or any amount you can manage). Think: X-mas bonus for a job well done, and no ulterior motive. And yeah, the iPad is always good if she doesn't have one.

Lay the envelope down and leave!!
Especially if your handle is....CPAhole, CurlyQ, Idicky or Gag me with a spoon Ga Ga!!

Didn't I tell you a long time ago to.....STFU!!
Turn up the friggen hearing aids!!

I am glad to see the old dungbeetle back and not only competing, but posting even stupider than ever. What was looking like a FIDIO runaway has now tightened into a rather close race.

Their is a reason you look like this.  
Think about it!!

Just when I thought he'd already plumbed the depths of lameness and gamelessness, he puts up a series of pathetic posts that sink him to a new low.  Dungy, why don't you leave while you're behind. Like this

I know you said a gift card is boring BUT that is what will help out most ladies at this time of year IMO and the second gift could be a big huge ORGASM!! lol
Hugs and kisses

So I always try to see her right before Xmas and yes I do the boring gift card, but then she can get what she wants. My ATF is gone (she toured with an agency that had to close shop earlier this year and I haven't seen her resurface, I'm very sad about that). I used to see her just before her birthday too and give her presents. But I haven't done Xmas presents yet, just birthday.

What a great idea. So a hobbyist could send a gift card to a provider after the date, kind of as a thank you? How cool would that be?

A pack of vacuum cleaner bags. I almost spit my coffee out when I read that.

An ipad or kindle.. good for books and keeping up with the "john's" not the kardashians.. lol

At that time. It's all in knowing a person.

Ha ha ha...give me 2 days, and I will pass you up again. I get my condoms in bulk from condomdepot.com. I still have like 200 left, I will probably never get to use.

Some of 'em make more money than Bill Gates lol. They should be giving ME shit!

I just give books and giftcards

I'll give you free sessions for LIFE.

Charming!  

It's the thought that counts.
Never bring a cliché gift like flowers, or chocolates.
It is lame, and gives you away as a hobbyist.

I'm a simple woman. Not only do I not take compliments very well. (I'm just a woman).
But I'm not one to want gifts.

Well a good fuck is a good gift indeed
Hugs and kisses

LMFAO.  
I tried that jumping out the window thing, but I live in the basement!!!
PS, leave me alone for awhile, I'm trying to count how many guys jump out that window!!!!!

Anyway, a brand new shiney 10/10 review is always the perfect gift!

Your opinions has totally... Oh wait, sorry.. They just called my name.

and counting those guys (you).  Don't come back here until they are all accounted for.  And I don't care if you live in your Mom's basement.  Find a window and jump out of it.  Now.

and I plan on bringing her some the next time I see her. She also claims to love tequila, so I am bringing a bottle of Patron as well.

and no I am not bringing her some damn book, she is not "just" a hole to fuck, she is a great hole to fuck, and that's why I am going back. (She seems to be a nice person as well, but the great sex is why I am going back)

Straighten up there young pup, or I will sick your father on you.

That reminds me of a time a couple of years ago that I stopped to get condoms on my way out of the country. I bought a 36 pack and a rather elderly, but nice lady was behind the counter. I made a remark about a rather long weekend coming up, and wondered aloud if maybe 36 condoms was enough. She wanted to laugh, but i could see the red of embarrassment creeping up her neck. I had to literally LOL

So just how long will 200 condoms last you? I would say that might be a one month supply for a "high volume" lady, maybe a six month supply for me, and probably two years worth for you. In the words of a mutual friend, "Tell me I'm wrong"

I say a different word that starts with o.

You can't squeeze into her either??? lol

No more than six inches long.  London's screening is very thorough.

I love gifts!  All gifts!  Gifts always seem to put a smile on my face and make feel special.  

Now, as far as gifts go, Hound's Dad always tries to give his "lady du jour" a pearl necklace as a good-bye prezzie.

More than I really have time and money for.....

Ignore the wussie, he is "O". ( oblivious )

That is actually accurate lol. I do not even stock above average or large condoms...sorry. Go see someone else lol. 200 should last me til the year 2023.

I would only add that whatever you choose try to make it a bit personal. No matter what you come to the door with most of us will just be happy that you are a gentleman to begin with, much less that you are bringing a gift.
