The holiday season is right around the corner and everyone is trying to figure out what they should get for their family and friends this year. Luckily for you unsure shoppers out there, you have me to help you make those tough decisions this year and keep all of your loved ones happy until next year. So, without further adieu, I give you my gift guide for everyone featuring 25 great gift ideas to keep all of those closest to your heart as happy as possible.
The iPad Mini or the iPad 2- Anything with that little “i” before it makes for a great gift. These are two of the hottest Apple products out now and would make anyone a happy camper.
Gift Cards- If you ever fear you are going to buy the wrong gift, you can’t go wrong with a gift card to a store you know they love. Make sure you are generous.
Clothing- It may seem generic, but everyone STILL loves clothes. I promise no one will complain, and if they do, send them to me.
Keurig Coffee Machine- Here’s a no-brainer. Everyone needs their coffee. This is a great gift idea for mom and dad or any college friends.
Personalized Gift- Stores such as Things Remembered allow you to create personalized or engraved gifts for loved ones and friends. There are lots of nice options and everyone appreciates the customized craft.
Shoes- Guys like ‘em, girls like ‘em, enough said.
Cologne/Perfume Sets- Get me one of these and I will be your best friend. This is always a safe gift choice.
Tickets- Here is another no-brainer. Tickets to a play or an upcoming football game will make the recipient a very happy camper.
Kindle- If you can afford it, get it. Everyone raves about them and they are a gift that provides convenience for a long time.
Books- Following the Kindle if you can’t afford it. Everyone appreciates a good read so books are always a safe option.
DVD Set- Everyone has that one show you see them watching ALL the time. Buy them a season of that show on DVD.
Scene-It- This is a really cool game. There are many different versions and they are very entertaining to play with family or friends. Don’t believe me? Buy one as a gift and see for yourself.
Camera- Very generic, but very useful and equally as satisfying in this day and age.
Headphones- There are some pretty great new, state-of-the-art headphones out there. They make a great gift for anyone to plug into their iPod.
Albums- Didn’t you hear? Downloading music illegally isn’t cool anymore. Go get your friends or family members an album by their favorite artist. I trust they will enjoy it.
Game Consoles- You can get these cheaper than you think, and there is a lot of variety as well. Pick out the one you see best fit for your friend, or buy one more family-oriented like the Nintendo Wii for the next time you go home.
iPhone- If someone you know and love does not have one of these yet, now is the time to catch them up. You can get some of the older models for under $100.
Food- Edible Arrangements and similar stores make some cool treats. Chocolates are never a bad gift either.
Jewelry- No one minds a nice watch or bracelet.
Lessons- If someone you love is passionate about something, get them lessons to improve on it! For example, guitar or singing lessons.
Pillow Pet- These things are apparently very comfortable and equally as popular.
Homemade Gifts- If you are short on cash, everyone will appreciate the effort of a homemade gift.
Massage- You will make a lot of people very happy by buying them a massage.
Decorations- Something to put up around the house is always appreciated.
LOVE- Because it’s the gift that keeps on giving.
There you have it, folks. That is my list of holiday gift ideas for your friends and family. I hope I can help make your loved ones happy during this joyous time of year, and if I don’t … Just kidding; I will, because making people happy is just what I do. Happy Holidays everyone!
