A good Christmas gift for a firefighters is a delicious box of chocolates. Or a gourmet food basket. Everybody can appreciate food. When giving anybody a gift it is thought that they should like it. Delicious food is almost always a great gift to receive.

Money is also a great gift for a fire fighter. Money is a great gift for me as well. I take cash or checks myself.

I have never met any firefighters myself, but I know lots of women who think they are incredibly sexy beings. One year I had a visit from the firefighters as my chimney shut and and smoke got in the house. That was a day full of firefighters and I am sure one of those nice gentleman would probably appreciate a box of chocolates. Who wouldn't appreciate chocolates? If they didn't like it, I think that would be rather ungrateful of them.

Traditionally firefighters are men, but I had a lovely female neighbour who was studying to be a volunteer firefighter. I am sure that she would enjoy a nice box of chocolates. Maybe some lovely bath products or a trip to the spa.

A trip to a spa might even be nice for a male firefighter. The smoke and soot from their profession likely clogs up their pores a great deal. A nice trip to a spa might be just the right thing.

Gift certificates are a great gift idea. They are almost as good as money.

If your firefighter friend enjoys the lottery, you might just want to buy him or her some lottery tickets. If they win they might share with you and you will be a lucky person indeed.

You might want to offer them a truly thrilling gift! A book on human spotaneous combustion would probably just make an absolutely great gifts. Firefighters always love stuff like that.

A bouquet of flowers is often a thoughful gift. Something to spruce up their kitchen table. A nice little Christmas arrangement with decorations. It is completely safe and absolutely wonderful. Any firefighter should be pleased to receive a gift like that.

Other ideas are more sentimental. You could make a nice scrapbook or photo album. A picture of yourself in a frame. Or a heart touching display of all the children who were saved from fire by your friendly neighbourhood firefighter.

Remember, it is the thought that counts. Anybody should appreciate the thought and effort of being given a gift. If you get the wrong thing, it shouldn't matter that much. Unless your firefighter friend likes to make you feel guilty and will complain about it a lot after Christmas is done and over with.
