Last Minute Shopping Ideas for Your Best Friends!

Let’s not mince words. We all have that one friend (or a few friends) who are picky, particular, and a downright pain to shop for. And when the holiday season creeps up, we are reminded just how hard it is to satisfy everyone on your “nice” list. Well instead of pulling out your hair trying to find the ideal gift for your loved ones, you can try a few of these ideas for a one-of-a-kind and thoughtful gift.

Now, I’m not telling you to grab a gift card or pull out your smartphone and browse the eBay or Amazon apps. We can do better than that. What would serve you well is something a little more tailored to them! One thing you can count on is a monogrammed gift! If you live near a “Things Remembered” store or another shop that does engraving, then this may be the best option. Most people love personalized gifts. Depending on who you’re shopping for, you can buy them something they would love and then engrave a unique and kind message into it. Trust me, they won’t stop talking about it, and they’ll feel just as special as you think they are!

Another thing you can do is send your loved one to a spa for a day of pampering! Spa gift certificates are a thing of the past. It’s not as thoughtful, and that is the opposite of what we are going for with this gift. Plan a day of relaxation for your friend, family member, or significant other. Have the spa put together their favorite lunch, a massage, salon services, and other personal touches that your loved one would appreciate. The personal touches will make this spa gift stand out above all of the other spa days they may have had.

When it comes to last minute gift ideas the more personal, the better. These two gift ideas are unisex, thoughtful, and possibly the best gifts your loved one will receive this holiday season!
