Questions to ask yourself before buying a gift

What questions should we ask ourselves before we buy a gift for someone?

1. How much money is appropriate?

2. What did you give them last birthday or Christmas or ... ?

3. How fast do you need it? Are you too close to the date to order something online?

4. What are their hobbies?

5. What kind of lifestyle do they lead? We're all busy but what kind of busy are they?

These are in no particular order and I'm not saying the amount of money is more important than thoughtfully purchasing the right gift. Just a start! Feel free to send me some more helpful questions!

Gimme! Best Gifts Ever

Hey gift-givers! How do I know you're a gift-giver? Because if you weren't you'd probably be pretty selfish and those kind of peeps would never visit my blog. Right?

I think picking out gifts is a tough job. If it's not tough, you're not trying hard enough. I mean it. Gifting your friends and family is an ART. I know, I know. We've all had to pick out the last minute "well, at least this shouldn't offend them" gifts. These things happen. We're all busy people and sometimes we forget stuff or get behind. In general though, we have lots of time to pick out thoughtful stuff.

I really want this blog to be a give and take - leave some ideas, pick some up. The holiday season is coming FAST!!! Start your engines...
