My sister and her husband are celebrating their second anniversary today. Since they both like to save money I decided I would help them by coming up with some appropriate and affordable gift ideas. Cotton is the traditional gift for the second anniversary.

For the serious penny pincher, you can purchase some reliable and versatile cotton balls. You can purchase hundreds of these for a few bucks. If cotton balls just aren't your thing you could invest in some cotton swabs.

If you would prefer a gift that is brighter and more cheerful you could give the gift of yarn. It is a gift that keeps on giving! You can use it for craft projects, sweaters, pot holders, scarfs, or a giant ball of yarn.

If you prefer getting clothes that are already put together for you, a cheesy generic t-shirt could be perfect! Designer t-shirts are expensive and plain t-shirts are too ordinary.

The ultimate gift of cotton for a person with a sharp sense of irony would be the Cotton Bowl. The players wear polyester and the Cotton Bowl stadium will no longer be hosting the Cotton Bowl game. You may not think this would qualify as affordable but with the new stadium opening in Arlington soon I'm sure the Cotton Bowl stadium people would probably love strike a deal with you to book an event or a quick tour.

Congratulations Alex and Christine! We love you!
