What to Give...The Hard-to-Buy-For People on Your Christmas List!
We all have those people on our gift-giving list that are impossible to buy for. We rack our brains trying to figure out the perfect gift for them every year. Here are some great suggestions for those difficult loved ones:
- The Friends with Expensive Tastes: "Think small, but deliver big," says Robyn Freedman Spizman, author of The Giftionary. If she likes designer duds, get a designer wallet or key chain.
- The Friend Who's Struggling: Parents appreciate knowing that their children can continue the activities they love. So spring for soccer lessons or the YMCA membership (check with parents first). Or offer to babysit.
- The Friend Who Has Everything: "People love gifts that offer them a better way of doing something," says Spizman. What does she do regularly? Does she cut flowers with scissors? Try a travel mug or rose clippers.
- The Person Who Never Likes Anything: More of what you're sure she does like: a certain scent, etc.
- Mom and Dad: Hobby gifts. Ask someone with the same hobby what's the best gift he's ever gotten. A runner might tell you about a great wrist key holder; a knitter, an extravagant yarn.
