Good morning, gang! Just 2 more days of Christmas, and if you're still scrambling to find that right gift for that special someone, here are 5 free last-minute gift ideas for you. Number 1, now this is one of my favorite gifts to receive, is the homemade coupons. Now you can create all kinds of coupons, from a free 30-minute foot massage to free babysitting, even a chore of your choice, or maybe a car wash. Another gift idea is to make these cool little sock monkeys. Take some old socks like this and create your own masterpiece that your kids will love. Number 3, make your own special spice rub. Use what you have in your cupboards to create the killer seasoning for your meat. Number 4, everyone can afford to give hugs and kisses. Love is the ultimate gift of all. And number 5, nothing can replace quality time with the family. Now I need to clarify what quality time is, and this example does not count as quality time, if you know what I mean. Instead, put down the cell phones and the iPads and enjoy a nice dinner and conversation with each other. For Wake Up Today, I'm Alan Akina. Merry Christmas, everyone.
