Getting a gift for my brothers/sister?

Okay, long story short, my brothers and sister are my legal guardians. Anyways, for Christmas i'd really like to get them something really nice. I was thinking of getting them a new mixer, and when I asked my sister if we needed a new one, she said no I went shopping with her today and they had Cuisinart mixers, which I realize are pretty dang expensive, but I do have money to buy like 2 mixers (I have like $700 of my own money I made myself) Anyways, I know that gifts come from the heart, so I was going to make them a card and a bracelet, but I really really really want to get them something because they deserve it and never get anything for themselves. Also, I need it to be something I can buy in the store because I don't have a credit card (obviously) and I need it to be legal to buy it without an adult signature. Thanks, and i'm 13 by the way

Unless your sister gets regular spa treatments, I'd say get her a gift certificate for a manicure, pedicure, or massage. Most gals think those things are great and to many of us, they're treats, not a regular thing. I'm sure your friends' moms could help you find a good salon or day spa from which to get the gift certificate.

Your brothers might enjoy massages, as well - many men do. Or they might like a gift certificate to a nice restaurant they normally wouldn't treat themselves to.

If you want to buy a "thing" - how about asking them to pose with you for a family portrait and then you pay for the sitting. This isn't expensive (it's really not about how much you spend, as you know!) but I bet they'd love to do it! I also would bet that they'd rather you kept your money, put it in a savings account toward college, and did something more personal than buy a mixer. Listen to your sister when she says they don't need one.
