I have to visit family in DR soon.
what do you think are good gift ideas for dominican men between the ages of 30-45.
and respectable women ages 40-70 years old.

thanks

i have NEVER had a complaint when i go to the campo with a HUGE bottle of Johnny Walker [4.5 or 5 liter bottle] courtesy of the duty free shops in JFK. That always works well with the guys. As for the ladies, I would say perfume but you need to know what they like!

Colognes and perfumes are definitely nice presents and are more (much more!!!!!) expensive in DR.

If you get them at the Duty Free. I dont smoke but I think cigs are not that expensive in DR.

MONEY is a good gift bottom line
but i agree, perfumes/colognes are real good considering how expensive it is in DR
