I know, that’s NOT the way that song goes, but for me it’s true. Between now and the end of February, I have 2 opportunities to make Betty and Veronica SO mad, they may not talk to me the rest of the year.
You guessed it – I’m talking about gifts. Christmas is still a whole month away and I’m already stressed about that to get them!!!
I don’t have this trouble with any of my other friends. Jughead is easy; I just get him something edible. Reg USED to be tough; I had trouble picking something for him UNTIL The Reg himself suggested I let Veronica pick his gift. So, now that’s what I do.
But the girls are different. I struggle with what to get them every year. And if I make it through Christmas, I know I’ll probably mess up at Valentine’s Day, so it’s a no-win situation for me.
THIS year, I was hoping you might help me. If you could send me some gift suggestions for Betty and Veronica, I would REALLY appreciate it.
THANK YOU in advance,
Archie
Yo Arch! i can't help you with X'mas presents but i can help you with Valentine's!!(tell you later)
For betty: a cute pair of high heel shoes
For veronica: a sparkly dress and a purse to match
(i'm sure they would like it!)
Well, Girls always like jewelry, perfume, flowers, that sort of thing. Get them something girly and romantic. Get them something that you really think THEY would enjoy even if you think it may sound stupid. THe girls will apreciate that sort of thing.
for betty i think u should give her a locket with matching earings and bracelet
and for ron i think u should get her an expensive new perfume
hope that u choose it
i thot shania s idea was great!!!i think the best present for betty is just 2 spend some quality time wif u n u could prepare a a simple bouquet of daisys 2 show tat she is simple n sweet n a fab(best in a liht colour like pink r white) bracelet wif a encraving of a special date mayb the first time u met together her r ur first date... n as 4 ron a nice big bouquet of flowers eg.roses nwif a letter of how u feel for her n the good times n a handmade bracelet wif her name on it....good luck!!
Maybe if you want to keep making scrapbooks, make one for Betty treasuring all the times spent with you (similar to Shana's idea) and make a scrapbook for Ron about the friendship between her and all her other gal frens. I'm sure the other gals will help provide stuff. Then it proves that she's really very popular. =)
Or it can be the other way around, but i think Betty deserves a more romantic gift because she is always helping you but you hardly notice her.
i think you should get betty a bouqet of flowers with a ring on one of the flowers and i think you should get veronica a giftcard to the mall since she loves shopping so much.
Well, maybe you could shovel snow for people until Christmas and buy a golden brooch, perfume or a ring for Veronica. But, if you pick the ring, maybe you can say: This ring holds our love forever.
For Betty, well, you kinda owe her for what she've done to help you, but...you never seem to notice her. You just go around the world finding Ronnie. So, I say maybe a bracelet with yours and hers pictures inside or a pair of cheap but beautiful pair of ear-rings. Even if you constantly ignore her, this Christmas, please oh please notice her.
hey everyone!
For Ronnie: i know everyone says jewelry, which may be a good idea, but nothing you can get Ronnie will even come close to what she already has or what she will get from her parents/rich friends this year! Why don't you make up a romantic dinner at home with candlelight (fake ones of course! don't wanna set the house on fire) and maybe caesar salad, spaghetti and meatballs and garlic bread! It's an easy-to-prepare meal that its fun to share and very mood-setting.
For Betty: She may like the idea of a fun date too! Maybe this time, you can make a winter picnic for her instead of vice versa. Then you can take a warm blanket and snuggle in the cold! The best way to end, I think, is to go home and roast marshmellows over the fire with the lights off, to set the mood.
Or if it may be better to get something tangible that they will cherish forever (hopefully), how about a homemade photo ornament for each of them? The photos will capture your best times with each girl and is a timeless treasure!
Hope I helped!!

Good idea Shania! You could also give Ron a pair of homemade earings with beads in her favourite colours. You could make Betty a friendship bracelet with a charm that says "Betty". Also make them cards with different poems on them. But try to remember that giving them gifts shouldn't be scary.
Don't you mean WHAT not THAT,Archie?

For Veronica you can give her a big kiss.For Betty the same.Then real gifts,Veronica some new skirt,for Betty a giant picture of you.

That's a great idea, shania!!!!
That's a great idea, shania!!!!
good idea shania! jugheadfan

Well, for Betty you should make a scrapbook of times you two (not THREE)spent together. Include photos, napkins from places you've eaten on dates, movie tiket stubs, her favorite flowers pressed between the pages, little sqares of fabric she'd like the feel of, some of her favorite sencts and so on. Do not even montion Veronica's name in it. That might bring some unhappy memorys. As for Veronica, Buy a 'make your own perfume kit', a 'make your own lip gloss kit' and a 'make your own nail polish kit' and design your own sencts, your own lip gloss and your own nail polish and give those to her. These gifts (making scrapbook and making prefume, lip gloss and nail polish) both take time, will both be liked and will (hopefully) keep you out of hot water.
Archie,
Easy, Simple way to keep the girls getting mad at you. Buy them both gift certificates to their favorite store. That way you can tell them they can get what they want because you could not decide.
Poor Archie gift giving should be a fun activtiy not a scary one.
I love Archie comics!! Merry Christmas Gang!!
I disagree with Tia. If arch gives ron a directory with phone numbers of only cute boys, ron might take it that he is not welcoming her, and wants to dump her.
Even if she does not assume that, she might be too involved with the boys to be with arch.
Furthermore, arch's "taste" of good looks is different from ron's.
i have an idea 4 u archie why don't u just give them a small treat at pop's >>this i'm sure u can do without making either of them angry. betty: bake her a cake made by you veronica: give her a directory which only has the name of young and handsome boys lol i'm sure u'll b able to deal with it all u're an expert at it all!!
yeah,that's right, dont ever give both of them similar gifts..girls are weird...
i suggest you give Betty any jewelry.Im sure she'll like it since Betty is not very picky when it comes to this kind of stuffs.You just have to make sure that it comes from your heart.
With veronica...I think the best gift for her this christmas would be a car........just kidding.A simple pouch bag will do and add some make-up inside.Im sure she'll love it.
Christmas:
For betty, why not a book about designs for handmade crafts? She'll like that, since she's into craftwork.
And for veronica, how about a scrapbook made of all the good times together?
Valentine's Day:
How about buying some beads and string to make some jewellary for both gals? It can be different designs. You can create a set, namely a bracelet, a pair of earrings and a necklace, for each of them. Or you can weaave together the jewellary by buying some thread and then tying it together in various ways. Go to the library to get a book, its called friendship bands but you can just give them seperate designs, or the same design but with differnt colours.
These crafts prove that you spend time on their presents instead of just buying stuff off the shelves. =)
for Betty get a Dress for her same for ron but some other design and IF u can afford jewellery and shoes get them
A necklace, for both of them. I think for Veronica a modern, dazzling necklace and for Betty, a more classical but pretty necklace, like with pearls or opals, and for Ron something like Rubys or Sapphires, or Garnets. It doesn't half to be too pricey. Or bracelets would be good, too.
you could ask them for a list...but ask them to be SPECIFIC.
Do the weird thing, and ask them what they are getting each OTHER for Christmas, and go with something along that line, or take a peek at the Christmas lists that they give their parents, and ask Mr/mrs Cooper/Lodge to let you get something on their list. EIther that or watch THEIR blogs and comments for Ideas.
Man, don't keep hanging on to your women! They love you for you! And Betty and Veronica deserve more than playing second fiddle to each other! Do you know that most of their fights are over you? For Christmas, I suggest getting Betty full time girlfriendship, and let Ron have Reggie.
Nice little parody there,Arch! lol! :)
Hey, Archie, I remember what you gave Ron last Valentines Day! That was funny! I don't really know what you could get them, but make sure no present is higher in value than the other. That's a good way to get rejected! I'm feeling really bad today. Right after school, I was walking past this kid in my class, and I was about to give him a playful punch on the arm, but I accidentally belted him in the chest hard! He kept on saying how much it hurt, while I repeatedly apologized. It didn't help, because he's still SO mad at me! What am I supposed to do?
Betty will like anything homeade from you. Veronica, well I am not sure what you should get her! =)
Sabrina
Here's the thing NOT to do. Do NOT get them gifts that are in any way similar! Unless, of course, you give them friendship bracelets. Then they should match. Also, make sure the gifts are of equal value, and if you get one girl two gifts, get the other 2 as well.
For Veronica: I only have 2 idea but you'll get others. You could get her jewelry and some loation.
Love,
Cinnamon Apple:)
But of course, my dear Archie! LOL. Ohkydokey, here we go!:D
Betty: A pair of earrings(doesn't have to be hundreds of dollars),a pretty handbag, and some loation. (I know it's a lot, but you owe her!)
I'll give you an idea for V later. G2G!
