Yet again, I’m buying gifts for people and need gift ideas. This crowd really came through last year and I’d love to try it again!
I don’t want to make rules, but I think we need a couple:
- Let’s at least cap them at $50ish. Telling people you want a DJI Drone, a Steam Deck or PS5 simply isn’t realistic. I’m not looking for ideas in that price range (even though I’d probably love all these, myself).
- Avoid intimate stuff. I’m not talking sex toys (though avoid those too - I’m not buying my sister-in-law a dildo), but more things that are really personal like jewellery, watches and stuff that you need to know the person’s tastes to get right.
I ask my sister and BIL what they want. They have a request, they get the request. No request? Cash.
Times is hard.
One sister wants cash towards a new motorcycle helmet. So yeah, she’s sorted. 😀
Another sister is all about the thoughtful gesture. It makes her super hard to buy for. She has loads more time than I do.
