Good Gifts For People Hard To Choose For

ECBG — Thu, 20 Oct 2016 03:35:50 GMT

Let's share gift ideas for those difficult people on our list. After all, how many calendars can one give? LOL!!!

These two suggestions delight every time!

1. I love Uncle John's Bathroom Readers 3-5 minute stories rarely heard on a variety of subjects! Lots if hi interest facts you'll want to share!

2. Immages Of America Series Virtually in every town and city across the nation. Photographs from the 1800's-present and detail on the facts durrounding development through the early 1900's.

Everyone finds these fastinating.

Last year for Christmas we gave recipe cutting boards to 8 family members and everyone loved them. I ordered them from Etsy. Bamboo cutting boards with a handwritten recipe from a loved one lasered on to it.

They were really well received. A very personal gift.

My brothers are always a challenge so I try to get them something that they would not buy themselves. Some of my best presents were automatic opening stainless trash cans, automatic paper towel dispensers, they loved them. This year I got them Yeti Rambler water bottles. They are expensive and but I have one and have dropped it multiple times and it does not lose its ability to stay cool. My niece told me the other day that my brother would love a Yeti but they are so expensive that he cannot afford it. My other brother is a park ranger and one day I saw him with a plastic cup with a pink lid. I think he will love his Yeti.

Yet Ramblers are great! I gave those also last year and am giving a few this year also.

@ECBG

Might I suggest Poo-Pourri to go with your #1? Or should I say #2? 😊

Whatnow, since she's a girly girl, how about a gift card for a mani/pedi?

@Its Me LuLuBelle2You could also get her a pretty scarf if you've seen her several times to see what she wears. The scarves at White House Black Market are really nice. Their sweaters, jackets, and other items are beautiful. Our Daughter in law LOVES their things.

@dex- does she like jewelry? I bought a really pretty sterling bangle from Etsy that I love. I bought it for gifts for friends also.

Good gifts are very hard to find........i find we are going with more gift certicates then anything.......and people seem to love them............for our elderly parents we over the years have bought them food store certificates...they LOVED them...felt they hit the lottery....haha...we have bought restaurant certificates for our children's and their spouses to their favorite restaurants which they really love...of course if there is something we have HEARD they would love we get that particular gift.......but even our teenager grandchildren would prefer a gift card then us picking out anything...haha. Just met a woman at the car wash who told me how her children give her the car wash gift certificates for her birthday, Christmas, etc and she loves getting them....said next time she will hint around for one that gets her a car hand wax!!

Good luck....hope they love whatever you decide to get

for them.!

Here are some gifts that I've given to people from QVC and they love these. These are all under $50 gifts.

Personally, I don't like gift cards as much because they are not as exciting to give or recieve.

These are perfect for men or women

1. F12065 BodyGym Delux Portable Resistance Band Home Gym

2. K44655 Kuhn Rikon 2.4 Cup Pull Chop Food Chopper

3. K44705 Kuhn Rikon Set of 4 Shears

4. K44634 Rachael Ray Set of 4 Silicone Lids

For women

5. Travelon Bags. (F11901 is on clearance right now.)

For kids

6. T34308 Crazy Aaron's Thinking Putty Gift Bundle (These are recommend for age 8 and up)

Happy Shopping!

Well...not sure of the price range, so I'll add $20-40 ideas...

Unisex gifts I think of

Luminara lanterns...the Luminara 'Hudson' is small, can fit into any nook and has a lot of color options...

Food...most of the time is great since the options are infinite, especially if there is even a hint of what the individule likes/doesn't like. However, it would be an issue if one didn't know if there were any type of allergies, or if say the individual is a diabetic, in which case that can be resolved with diabetic/sugarfree food/candy...

A magazine subscription; something they're interested in, or a magazine you know they'd enjoy.

It's nice to have something to look forward to every month, or if the recipient forgets, a nice surprise. ;-)
