How to be a Good Gift Giver!

Today I received one of the most complimentary "Thank You" notes of all time! One of my best and dearest friends thanked me for a "perfect gift." Cleverly, she wrote: "I have always wondered if you have a closet somewhere stocked full of perfect gifts for friends." She's close!

The secret to being a good gift giver is thinking of that person when you spot an item. Doesn't matter when or where. Best to be alert and aware when shopping.

The "perfect gift" will reveal itself at any time, so be ready! When you are browsing Online, perusing on Amazon, shopping for someone else or for yourself, and you see an item reminding you of a friend or family member, buy it then and there! Keep the gift in a closet or cabinet until the special occasion or the Holiday season arrives.

This strategy includes Gift Cards. As I once heard a teenager say, one does not want to give a "loser gift card" (Gift Cards from stores the person does not shop with). Make sure your gift card will be useful to the recipient. It's SO nice to be organized!

The best time of year to browse is in January and July when everything is on 50% off sale!

This way, you are all ready for the busy Fall season and done with your shopping for the Holidays!

Being a good gift giver involves thinking of the other person, not thinking of yourself.

Practice on little fun gifts and work your way up to the important, significant gifts.

Good luck and good thoughts about others!
