offer to take them on a shopping trip so that they know you are thinking of them, but they can get what they would like


I used to give gifts, but I don't give gifts anymore. honestly, I got sick of people coming up to me saying I hate it, or throwing it in the corner


I remember 1 particular year a friend of mine begged me for a new jazz cd, I got it and then they told me that they'd gone off the idea of having it, and I felt quite angry at that.


I watched this friend take his keys to each disk in turn and snap the cds in 2.


shocked, and what a waste of money


I don't do gifts now. ever
