Seeing the family up close from far away
Update: Going, going gone. Woot's Web site no longer advertises the deal below, replacing it with something new.
If you can't see your grandparents or grandkids in person over the holidays, you may still be able to see them over your computer screen, on the cheap too.
Woot has an eye-catching, one-day only deal on a headset and webcam for $7.99 that you can hook up to your computer to use eBay's free Skype Internet phone service. Not only is eBay's software free (you simply download it), so are the phone calls, including long-distance.

Looks like they've already switched out that deal with a new one. They just do one each day, so the old ones just disappear.
