51zmi21vddl_sl500_aa240_.thumbnail.jpgThis season the goal is to shop, buy, wrap–and stay within a budget. Two hundred and fifty bucks goes a long way for buying holiday gifts: You can install a low flow toilet or a linoleum floor in a 9th Ward house through Make It Right Foundation and let everyone on your list know how you spent your gifty budget.  Taking Gwyneth Paltrow’s suggestion, you could get a little more personal  and buy several pairs of Barney’s cashmere socks for your special friends. Or drop the whole wad to help Hillary Clinton pay off her campaign debt:

As you know, Hillary is still working hard to pay down the debt from her campaign, and we hope you’ll take this opportunity to help her out…for that special person in your life, with a contribution of $250 or more, you will receive a book that’s personally signed by Hillary to him or her by name.

Feeling the economic pinch?

With your contribution of $50, you will receive a copy of Dreams Taking Flight with a specially designed Hillary Clinton bookplate.
