Ok getting married soon. I know when I've been a groomsmen I always end up with something stupid I will never use. What's the best thing you have received. Right now I'm leaning towards a travel humidor and a nice cigar to go with it.

Anything personalized and practical is a nice move. My favorite is a set of highball "New York Jets" glasses.

How much do you want to spend? If you don't have a lot of them you could get them watches.

I found some real nice watches on Amazon and got all my groomsmen one of those and a medium bottle of their favorite liquor. They liked it

I wouldn't buy them anything. Waste of money.

And I use rational thought. Marriage = expensive and likely to end in failure.

Hope this helps.

The guy. The woman leeches off of the main breadwinner (typically the guy) and then takes half of everything when the marriage fails.

We get it. Marriage sucks. Back on topic.

I gave out these, framed with an individual photo of each guy so it looked like the old team photos you got back in little league. Huge hit.
