There are so many great subscription box services around now, and there's something for absolutely everyone. Think craft boxes, beauty boxes, food boxes... the themes are endless! You could even subscribe to a pet box so that their pet receives monthly treats and care packages. Subscribing to a subscription box service is also perfect because your friend will receive a little something every month - much more exciting than just opening one present on Christmas Day!
2. Name a Star
What do you buy the person who has everything? A star! That's one thing I'm pretty sure they won't have. Buying your friend/family member a star is the perfect gift idea. On Star Name Registry you can ensure that the star you buy and name is visible from the UK, and you can also turn your star into a gift set. This includes a silver certificate frame presented in a lovely box which you can give your tricky friend on Christmas Day. What's better than having a star named after you?!
3. Adopt an Animal
Not only is this gift a good one for those tricky people, it also really helps too - and can be from as little as £3 a month with WWF! By adopting an animal, you will be helping to protect some of the world's most vulnerable animals. And there are plenty of animals to choose from - from snow leopards and elephants to dolphins and tigers. You'll also receive a members' pack, panda pin badge and three issues of the WWF action magazine in a year. Get adopting!
Ah tricky people from me normally get a gift voucher lol - easy cop out but these are some good ideas x
ReplyDeleteI don't consider myself tricky, but will love to get the subscription box! hehe, Amazing ideas :)
ReplyDeleteI love taking the time to give personalised gifts - even to those tricky people! I like these ideas for those tricky ones as it's still quite more personal than the old gift card or something else generic. At least you can give them something that they enjoy (subscription box) or something near and dear to their heart (adopting an animal). Good tips! x
ReplyDeleteThe subscription box is a really good idea, my Mum would love that and it's a nice monthly treat for her x
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend is the tricky one to buy for and I always go or a mug lol I have suggested two of the options and he said not to bother and I was going to buy him the lord title and he said no. Slippers and a pipe this year I think as he seems to be turning into a grumpy old man haha.
ReplyDeleteI do something a little different, I bake for tricky people, I make sure to know what they don't like or can't have and they're usually happy! I do love the subscription box idea though!
ReplyDeleteMost of the in-laws are tricky, and these are great tips! I'm an advocate for a list. That way buying presents is easy and everybody gets what they want!
ReplyDeleteI am quite good at gift giving but I am awful at choosing gifts for myself. I should send this to the family ;) x
ReplyDeleteI've done the name a star gift for my hubby years ago and he loved it xxx
ReplyDeleteLove these present ideas. My dad is impossible to buy for so I think I'll look for a subscription box in his interests.
ReplyDeleteSubscription boxes are a great gift idea, I think. There's so many different ones out there to choose from too - something for every taste.
ReplyDeleteSubscription boxes are a great idea, but I think naming a star is such a cute idea x
ReplyDeleteReally handy post, thanks for this! I think I'm quite difficult to shop for haha
ReplyDeleteI too usually go for a gift card as then the person can get what they want.
ReplyDeleteI usually go for a gift card although your ideas and suggestions are very good and unique.
ReplyDeletesome good suggestions. I love the idea of giving someone a Star named after them. That's something that can be taked about in families for ever
ReplyDeletethese are great ideas. they're not the usual gift card ideas so there's more thought in this
ReplyDeleteThe subscription box is a great idea as there are so many different ones out there x
ReplyDeleteGreat suggestions - especially the subscription, I'd love on of those!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of subscription boxes as gifts. In the past I have given magazine subscriptions as presents and they were well received. This seems like a similar idea.
ReplyDeleteI'd go with the subscription box myself preferably a beauty one ;-)
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of naming a star or adopting an animal!
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of people who are tricky and I am definitely going to use two of these ideas!!
ReplyDeleteI think personalised gifts is the way to go! I gave up buying gifts and opted to make things instead. I am a keen baker so make goodie bags for people, it works out much cheaper too
ReplyDeleteName a star is such a lovely idea, and a present that lasts forever too.
ReplyDeleteI have done name a star before and it is such a lovely unique gift idea x
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas! I love finding something unique to give as a gift. x
ReplyDeleteThese are great ideas. I like the idea of naming a star.
