What's a yankee swap?
This year is going to be an especially tight budget. I've been doing more and more shopping online. I've been told that a Yankee Swap is a good way to save money if you have a large family. Any good yankee swap gift sites?

Mac:  I've put together a website dedicated to the Yankee Swap including downloadable rules and gift ideas at http://www.yankeeswap.com The rules are downloadable in PDF format at http://www.yankeeswap.com/images/Yankee-Swap-Official-Rules.pdf You never know what the "good gift" is going to be but kitchen gadgets always seem to be a big deal. Coffee gift baskets are also a crowd pleaser. Oh, and don't forget martini glasses with mixes. I think the gift that got stolen the most last year was either the plain old bottle of Kahl? the scratch tickets.

The Drifter:  A yankee swap is when you get a gift and if you don't like it, you can give the gift to someone who really likes the gift. The gift has to be something both genders can use.
