#2 Do Not Create a Problem
If you know the person very well, you will know what to buy and what not to. Consider this when purchasing a gift that they will treasure. Do not give them a gift that will cost them time, effort, and stress. Do not buy a gift card when you know the person cannot decide, do not buy them a puppy or a bird if you know that it will only bring frustration instead of happiness. Here is a thought; are you buying the present for yourself or someone else? Think of their needs and wants, not your own.
#3 Give Them What They Want
Listen carefully when you ask the person what they desire for their birthday, Christmas, or anniversary present. You will never disappoint when you get what the person asked for. If your little girl asks for a trip to the zoo, plan the outing and take her there. If your husband is dying of boredom and is a car enthusiast, consider purchasing a collection of rc drift cars, there is a 99% chance that he has hinted for it. If your girlfriend wants quality time on her birthday, give her the present of making a homemade meal and a binge tv-show where the two of you can spend the whole day.
#4 Sentimentality
Giving a gift to someone with sentimental value will never get old. It is a type of gift that will always be treasured. Think back to when you and the person shared an inside joke, made great memories together, or listened to a song where you both danced the night away. Giving sentimental gifts requires more effort and thought, so plan ahead when you decide to give a memory box or a playlist for someone special.
Giving gifts is supposed to be fun and rewarding. Do not overthink the process of giving the perfect gift. If you deeply know someone, you will know what present to get.
I love personalised gifts or making hampers with things I know they love. To me it is the little things that mean the most.

These are helpful tips. I agree with not causing them stress. I have received gifts before that cause me stress and I don't ever want to do it to anyone.
ReplyDeleteI always try and remember things people have told me in conversations, whether they've mentioned a book they like etc. Present buying can be tricky
ReplyDeleteListening to what people want and gifting that is really the ideal! I have a running list of stuff I saw and really loved, which I share with my family, and that has really helped them pick gifts too.
