r/GiftIdeas

Hello, I’m trying to buy a gift for my husband who has just passed all of psychiatry board exams and is now a licensed psychiatrist.

He has no hobbies. However he likes business stuff (his dad is a business man and he always wanted to do something business related but was told to go to med school). He does have his own business on the side (gas station). He likes looking at things from within and figuring out how they are made (especially mechanical things), he’s great with working with his hands.

Can help on what I can get him? He does need a new wallet so that’ll be one thing I’m getting him. But he said he really wants to be surprised and said no clothes. Please help because I suck at giving gifts.

I am a pretty good gift giver. When it comes to getting something for our boss.. I'm good. When i see something one of my oldest friends would like, i get it even a small token while on vacation. One of my friends since high school is VERY good at choosing something for my birthday or whatever... a piece of jewelry, a book, stationary, a nice cutting board, i mean always spot on/thoufhtful/interesting/or something i wouldn't get for myself. But i cannot think of what I'd like to get her for her birthday coming up... i think part of it as i sit here thinking is that i feel insecure about it. **Will she like this??**.. She's eclectic and fashionable & always looks stylish even when being comfortable.. She is an artist and illustrator. She has a variety of likes and interests. I don't want to get her any tchotchkes... I was thinking cozy soft light pajamas.. or something cool from one of the local antique stores.. Any ideas?? Thanks!

Hi, im turning 19 in a bit less than a week and I still have no idea what i want 😭

Im really into makeup and beauty stuff. I really want a coach bag but its a bit too expensive so I don't think I'll get it lol. I dont really take pictures nor wear jewelry though I do want to start a bit more.

I like to read, play games, and workout. I wouldn't mind some over ear headphones but I need some recommendations for them.

Please help even though this is so last minute I really dont know and I don't just want money since its a bit boring!

My boyfriend works out around 4 times a week and tries to eat healthy. A while back, he mentioned that he’d like to get an air fryer, and I remembered it.
I’m thinking of surprising him with one, but I’m not sure if it’s a good gift or if it might feel too practical.
If you were in his position, would you be happy to receive an air fryer from your girlfriend? Or would you rather get something more romantic or personal?
I’d love to hear your honest opinions!

I will have stayed at my brother’s house for 2 and a half weeks. I’d like to get something for him and my sister-n-law. Taking them out for dinner could have been an option, but we don’t have any nights free at this point.

Brothers and also girls please help me for found a gift idea for my girlfriend it’s her birthday soon a just after a few days we will have one year since we are together PLEASEE

I have 2 birthdays coming up in a few months and both are men 30+.
I find them both hard to buy for as they’re pretty ‘typical’ guys.
My uncle is into football and snooker, my cousin likes beer and Pokemon. I’m open to any and all ideas! I’m in the Uk and wanting to spend up to £30 each! Thanks in advance 😊

Hi guys, 24M here. I’m in a relationship for 1.5 years. She’s v cute, loyal, honest and all the things i needed in a girl. We’re gonna celebrate her birthday in the upcoming days. I was looking for gift ideas for her but couldn’t find any meaningful idea.

So i thought out of nowhere that I SHOULD WRITE A BOOK BY MYSELF FOR HER. The title is “100 reasons why i love you”.

I have already made a blank customized book with everything of my choice for her (Page color, Page texture etc).

How’s the idea? Kya mai zyada over to ni ho rha?😭

Any other gift ideas b dena ladies log pls help a brother out

Hi everyone, need some advice. I’m thinking of buying a gift for my crush but I don’t want it to be too much or make things awkward.

I was thinking of getting a small flower bouquet, maybe pink tulips or something soft and simple. Not red roses because that feels a bit too direct.

Is that a good idea, or would it feel too obvious? Also, what kind of flowers would feel sweet but not too intense?

Would appreciate any advice, especially from girls — what kind of gift would make you feel happy but not pressured?

I’ll go first.

When I was getting ready to go abroad for six months for a work contract, my (now ex) boyfriend, got me a kit to make (I shit you not) a silicone replica of his penis.

I still don’t know why I didn’t leave him right there and then…

I want to get him something he’ll actually love and be surprised by. I don’t want to just give him a cologne or grilling tools. I want something unique but I don’t know what.

Context:
We live in NY, he’s of Mexican descent, mechanic, works 6 days of the week

I have made a new friend from work who is Lebanese. We have learned a lot about each other’s cultures and had fun with different quotes, talking about similarities growing up in different countries, etc.

His birthday is coming up. What’s something I could get him that’s maybe more traditional?

FOR EXAMPLE: Personal Experiences or emotional connections rather than physical items.

Im going to a christening of my best friends baby, im god mother

I have a gift for the baby but do I but something for the parents also

I have no clue. And help would be great full

We've been dating dating for 3 years, I'm in the middle east(the country shall remain nameless but consider me as much of a caveman as someone who just got out of north Korea) while she's in Malaysia and I honestly have no clue what to get her this year (the other 2 birthdays we weren't long distance) I'm looking to get her something that can be bought from a Malaysian store/website.

Thank you for all your help in advance.

Hello. I'm getting married this Friday July 10. We are doing koozies for wedding favors for our guests. I'm putting together little gift bags for each of the vendors we hired. Would it be tacky to throw a koozie in there for them? Looking for honest opinions. Thanks!
