Gifts: Did you get ‘Em all? [A Repost]

Common problem during Christmas is finding the gifts for your loved ones. This is a perennial concern of most people. Then cramming begins… 


Like right now, seven more days to go before Christmas Eve… and some people are not halfway done with their list… mom? Check! Dad? uncheck… gramps… sistah 1, sistah 2… brother 1, cousin 1… god child 1…2…3… and the list goes on… ALL UNCHECK!
 

Aside from the dilly-dally attitude… it is quite a challenge to think of what gift to wrap.

Lemme list down this unsolicited advise. Here are 10 general items that you can rush buying before time beats you.

  • Toiletries
  • Gadgets
  • clothing
  • shoes
  • gift certificates from SPAs and Saloon
  • Wine/ Basketful of fruits or goodies
  • Jewelries and Accessories
  • Home Decor
  • Office Stuff
  • Books
You can write on your list… Dad- Book… Gramps- Wine... Sister- Chanel Lipstick... in this way it is easier which section to go rather than doing “random pick”… or that “mini-mini-mynimo” thing. It’ll save you time. 

In case, time really is a constraint, you can go to online shops. It is the easiest way. But bear in mind that the Holiday is nearing, so they probably are on their peak… your loved ones might be receiving their gifts next year.

If I were you, I rather pick those items by myself and really take time to shop. It is all worth it. Seeing their faces when they open your gifts? That’s priceless and it pays the time you spent.
