Which gift you received before is the most unforgettable one for you? Is it a Barbie you got on your 7th birthday party or a ticket for a baseball match that you were longing for? Perhaps it is the unique handmade necklace from your first boyfriend. Such a small gift is worth several dollars in a local shop, however the value of it is not only judged by its price in dollars but by the care and love with which it has been come across. In other words, a gift can be really remembered by its importance instead of its price on the tag. Do you have a hard time when determining which gift to buy? In fact, there are some clues to help you to find a proper gift to the recipient. Let’s see them.

If you paid enough attention to them, you must get the answer right away.

1. Does your recipient usually keep saying, "I want to buy the latest iphone 4 accessories, how do you think of them?", "My flashlight is ready to fall apart." or "My coin purse got lost last week."? ATTENTION! These can be your choices of gift!

2. Do you talk about your favorite band, author, artist, sports team or actor when having a nice sunny afternoon in the serene café at the corner of the street? Which one is his or her favorite? If she is a fan of Justin Bieber, in my opinion, high quality noise cancelling headphones would make her enjoy. If he is a gizmo collector, things will be much easier for you. What you will do is to spend half a day on the internet searching the latest novelties that he has not bought yet. The next thing you do is to wait for his surprising look and scream.

3. When you visit your intended recipient at home, look around and pay attention to what has been there and what is missing. Does the host complain about the poor quality of sofa? Does the vase in the living room match with the motif in the room? Do they apologize for the lack of chairs? Have they decorated in a particular motif? Does the dog have a dog bed? Does the cat have a scratching post? Does the child have a large toy chest? These gifts must be considerate.

These gifts can be spoken out by them unintentionally; nevertheless, it is an unspoken rule about gift giving:"Don't ask the recipient what he or she wants." Generally speaking, it is very impolite to ask people such a bold question. Children, on the contrary, are eager to tell anyone what they are wishing for. Therefore, when asking is out of the question, you’d better choose a gift certificate a place where almost everyone could find at least one thing to please themselves, such as book stores, movie theaters, department stores, gadget catalogues and so on. Although gift certificates seem a little bit generic, recipients are likely to get a satisfactory item.
