I'm usually pretty good with getting gifts. I'm down with practicality sometimes (like vaccums, clothes, etc.), but you can spend a whole lot of money on a bunch of little things that may have been mentioned. Maybe a girlfriend/boyfriend mentioned they wanted to watch a certain movie sometime? Go out and buy the DVD. Get CD's, even doing nice things like burning CD's go over well.
I'm not a big fan of jewelery or anything like that at Christmas, I almost find it slightly impersonal unless she specifically asked for a certain kind. Example, last year, my mom asked for a bangal bracelet. My father, having no knowlege of jewelery, got sucked into buying a hideously ugly tennis bracelet. My mom ended up returning it and buying what she wanted.
I dunno, other than that, everyone loves the spa. Or, a free hair color.. or a even gift certificates are okay in conjunction with other gifts. Its the best way to go if you don't know what size she wears or if she hasn't picked out quite what they really want.
