[quote=YINDUFFY,352253]I have had the same problem. What I did was take a bunch of U.S. dollar coins and some brand new dollar bills. ( unfortunately my wife decided to leave two suitcases with a sister in Shenzhen and they contained our gifts as well as our bathing suits!) On our next trip I took more dollar coins and some rolls of pennies to give out to schoolchildren.( I took candy too but ants got it first.) The third trip I brought cigars which were very well received even by non-smoking relatives. (cigars are very lightweight too.) Female relatives passed them on to their bosses who prized them. I saw lots of places selling cigarettes but saw none selling cigars. Luckily for me I was able to buy a supply of expensive cigars cheaply from salvage store that sells items from bankruptcy, store mergers and insurance losses. I paid 50 cents ea. for $3 cigars! When my mother in law returned to China, my relatives asked us to have her bring with her - more cigars![/quote]
