Four Ways to Give Truly Meaningful Gifts
Buying someone you love a gift that expresses your truest feelings isn't always easy. But when you get it right, the joy they show is worth it. ____
Listen up.
While you may think it's a great idea to surprise someone by giving them something you think is meaningful, it's best to get them exactly what they have told you. For example, you heard friends say they wanted the newest bike but you bought them a gym membership instead. ____ So get them what they've specially asked for.
____
In the spirit of showing love, we might go big. However, we may not be thinking of what really makes the person happy. You might think buying your father the latest TV is perfect, but then when you get it home, it lights up the living room like a stadium and is totally wrong for the space. So think smart.
Keep it open.
Many of us may consider giving cash impersonal（没人情味的）. But this may save you some concern. The receiver can be allowed to choose whatever they want. In a recent survey of over 7,000 Black Friday shoppers, 39 percent said the receiver they were shopping for was “picky（挑剔）”. ____
Create an experience.
Visit websites where you can get the latest tickets for a play, buy a surf lesson, or even something unexpected like a flight lesson. ____ For example, if your kids are into NASCAR, just imagine the look on their faces when you score them a ride at a race car driving school. So give them a time that they will remember to heart.
A. Ignore the size.
B. Go for something big. C. Well, that was the wrong move.
D .If possible, cut down the cost of the gifts. E. These are things that can create a lasting memory.
F. Here's how to discover a gift your receiver will love.
G. So save yourself the second guess and give cash instead.
