One thing that's constant from University arch to office water cooler, is the bland sameness that seems to be all but epidemic in our society. At college you see the edgy side of a trend... at the office you see the 2-inches above the knee, not-so-much (if we're lucky) cleavage version. The same goes for gifts... "It's Ashley's birthday, lets get her something from Bath and Body Works!" I have nothing against bath and body works, actually I'm kind of addicted to their vanilla lotion, but that's beside the point...
For change in gift-giving pace, I suggest the Exit 9 Gift Emporium
they have cool unusual (affordable) gifts, plus I enjoy their social commentary. Nothing like finding a place to shop and vent at the same time!
