Help - Bridal Party gifts

Hi girls. Once again I need help with what to get my bridal party. I do not want to get them jewelry and, I can't spend a lot of money. Maybe $40 a person. We have 4 girls, 5 guys and 2 flowergirls (ages 4 and 7). Can someone please help me. Where I can go look that has a nice selection of gifts and good prices. My sister is my Maid of Honor and for her I would like to get something more special then the rest of the girls. Maybe a piece of jewelry. Any help would be greatly appreicated. Thanks so much!

Denise

We got the guys the Musicooler .. they all thought it was neat, and my dad was disappointed he didn`t get one, so he picked one up for him for Christmas. The Musicooler is $43.00, and the shipments come quickly!

They don't really have any hobbies. This is why it is hard. I don't want to get them another jewelry box (that seems to be the gift us girls always get when we are in wedding parties). What did you do for your girls. P.S. What is a Musicooler?

Gifts

My friend got us the cutest gifts! She bought really tiny purses and had them dyed the color of our dresses. No one usually buys a purse just for that one day, so I thought it was a cute idea. She also bought little baskets and filled them with things we would like- a novel, bath salts, lotions, etc.
Another friend of mine gave all of her bridesmaids gift certificates to get a manicure and pedicure.

Gifts

I gave my BM silver plated makeup brushes in a case with their names embroidered, jewelry for the day as well. That all came to about $40 pp. I got the jewelry at JC Penney and it was all on sale. The makeup brushes came from Marilyn's Keepsakes and were on sale back then too. Also a friend had purses made to match the dresses -- but I didn't pay for that.
I saw some cute travel makeup bags on QVC last week. Travelon is the brand and they were only $13 and change. I really thought that would hav ebeen a great idea.
