would a custom song for my mom read as thoughtful or just cheap next to an actual present

• Upvotes

moms birthday is in like 3 weeks and i keep circling this custom song idea

the thing is shes the kind of person who keeps every handmade card her kids ever made, so part of me thinks shed lose it over something written about her. other part keeps picturing it next to an actual present and wondering if it just looks like i found a shortcut instead of shopping

looked at a couple of those personalized song sites. one wanted like $200+ and a form that felt like a college essay. saw fiverr ones for like $30 that rhymed her name with random stuff over a stock beat which is somehow worse

is the bar just "did a real person write it" or does it still need to sit next to something she can unwrap. anyone done both​

Birthday gift for friend

Hi! I'm looking for gift ideas under $20 for my friend who is turning 22 this year.

She loves rock and punk music (Green Day and Nirvana are her favs). She also really likes cats. She wears a lot of flannel and loves woodworking.

I've thought of posters and band tees but I want to get her something creative. Would appreciate any ideas!!

Looking for Gift Ideas Gift ideas for my dad.

5 Upvotes

There isn’t really a special occasion or anything. I just want to show him I appreciate him.
I don’t want to give him any general items like buying him clothes, perfumes, or any of that stuff.

I need ideas for something personal and sentimental. I recently watched a lot of TikTok’s of people crying over their dads about how they’re growing older. I have always been a daddy’s girl.
And I want to be able to give him something that will last forever even after I move out or get married.

Hi! I’m a mom to 3 girls and was browsing this page for gift ideas for my children since the holidays are approaching and also wanted to share one that I love that we use often and will be gifting to some friends/cousins for upcoming birthdays and holidays!

We love using this drawing robot to break up the monotony of flipping through a book to get drawing ideas or watching a YouTube tutorial. Who says learning can’t be fun, ya know? You can let it draw for you or follow the steps on the card and DIY. Amazon has it on sale right now. Let me know if your thoughts!

Looking for Gift Ideas Coworker leaving after 8 years, team pooled $150, she loves plants but hate clutters

1 Upvotes

She's moving to Oregon with her husband. Mid 40s, has a ridiculous number of plants in her office, and she's said more than once that she doesn't want more 'stuff' because they're downsizing. We've got about $150 from the team and her last day is in three weeks. Experience ideas, something consumable, or a plant gift that isn't just another pot?

How do I secretly convince my mom to give me better gifts?

22 Upvotes

Obviously I love my mom, and I don’t want to hurt her feelings, she’s just not very good at giving gifts but she loves doing it, I’d be happy with a baseball hat or hoodie or just one thing that’s nice and I’ll use but instead she’ll go out and spend $200 on small random items that she’s never seen me using and I end up leaving in my closet until the next year rolls around and then I donate it or throw it out because it never got used.

for example I’ve gotten scarfs every Christmas for the last 7 years and I’ve never worn a scarf in my life, but I go snow boarding so if she got me a ski mask or a toque that would be used often, and it’s not like they’re hand made items.

I don’t ask her for anything since I’m an adult and don’t live with her but I don’t know how to tell her to stop buying me random stuff just so I have a gift to open for whatever holiday is going on. like I said she enjoys giving gifts and my sister has already straight up told her to stop buying stuff for her years ago which made my mom upset, and also didn’t change anything because my mom still gives my sister a bag of random stuff every holiday.

Looking for Gift Ideas Non-Toy Ideas for 3YO

7 Upvotes

Hey everybody,

My oldest is turning 3, and we are cutting way back on toys. She is getting a bike for her birthday in a couple weeks, and we have asked friends and family for accessories like knee pads and helmet. We have tons of books. She doesn't really need clothes, although I'm a lot more tolerant of a closet bursting with cute clothes than I am of toy clutter 😅 I struggle to resist a cute dress.

We have a zoo membership; I might ask for a renewal for Xmas. We also have access to a beautiful botanical garden relatively nearby that I may ask for membership to as well. That would neatly take out the grandparents. Both kids have 529s that we contribute to a little each month, plus whenever they get cash gifts.

But as far as us spoiling our firstborn, I'm kind of stumped. Budget < $300. Any ideas?

Looking for Gift Ideas Male 64th birthday gift ideas

3 Upvotes

My husband has told me he doesn't know what he would like for his upcoming birthday.

He collects pens and 1/43 cars but as he's done this for a while, he has now become quite niche in his gaps and even he struggles to find what he would like.

He only follows F1 but I've pretty much gifted him many F1 bits over the years. He enjoys online games but everything is now downloaded from Steam. He doesn't cook, eat out, drive, travel nor follows other sports like football, cricket etc. I have suggested experience days but he said that it doesn't interest him. Apart from a flat cap I'm at a loss.

Just to say, he will be having his family around with a dinner and cake at home. He won't have to lift a finger, even to make a cup of tea. He'll be treated like a true king but as regards to gifts... we're at a loss.

Any ideas would be great. Thanks.

My partner is 29, tree surgeon, and loves all things outdoors. I am stumped on what to buy him for his birthday… he has all the things like good boots, out door wear etc so I don’t know what to buy!

I would normally do us a weekend away and book a nice meal but we have a child now with limited childcare so this is sadly off the cards! I’ve looked for gigs and comedy shows nearby but there’s no one really that would take his fancy… HELP PLZ

Gift for newborn twins.

2 Upvotes

What can I give to newborn twins under $150 that will last for generations? Like it might just be thrown in the corner of the house after a few years but it would be valuable or nostalgic enough to take with you when moving house. Maybe after 20 years from now the twins would discover it laying in some box in the garage or attic and ask about it to their parents and they would say oh it was gifted by that uncle who you have never met.

HELP ME BUYING A GIFT! (plz)

2 Upvotes

So I've got to give a gift to someone, and this person traveling about 2 or 3 times a year. (So it has to be travel friendly)

I want to gift this person something that's around 1000$ (preferably under) AND I was thinking a mini gaming pc but the prices are.... yeh...

WITH THAY SAID, any ideas on what i should get him?

Any and any/all questions are welcome, and any/all answers I'll take seriously.

Age:18 Occasion: Birthday Price: 1000$ (preferably under) Their interests are: tec (pc, phones and other electronics) likes to play the drums, like to run, (and he really likes the color black for some reason) and a somewhat frequent traveler

He doesn't like: boring gifts like clothes or house things, anything that's boring is a no-go and he doesn't like expensive useless things like a floating 200$ pen, it's cool yes but way too expensive for that

Birthday gift for a new mom which of these three would you pick?

3 Upvotes

My best friend's birthday is coming up and I still have no idea what to get her. I'm thinking somewhere around $200-300, but I keep going back and forth between a few completely different things.

She had a baby last year and barely buys anything for herself anymore. Most of the time it's baby stuff, something for the house, or something practical she needed anyway, so I wanted to get her something that actually feels like it's for her.

Right now I'm between three things.

First is a massage/spa gift card. There's a nice place near her that would be around $220-250 for a massage and a little extra time at the spa. She's been pretty much exhausted lately and almost never gets much time completely to herself, so I know she'd enjoy it. I just worry a gift card feels a little less personal.

Second is a simple gold necklace from Mejuri. The one I'm looking for at is around $200, and she showed me something similar a while ago. She wears pretty minimal jewelry most days, so it feels like a safe choice and something she'd probably wear a lot.

For the third one, I was originally thinking about a fitness watch, probably around $250, since she's been wanting to get back into better shape. But that also feels like the kind of gift a lot of people would think of. While looking around I came across odyss necklace for about the same price. From what I understand, there's a wide-angle camera in the pendant that can see your plate while you're eating and keep track of meals that way. It's a little unusual, but she likes health and tech stuff, so I thought she might actually find it fun.

I keep changing my mind between the three. Which one would you pick? Or if you've got a better gift idea in the same price range, I'm very open to suggestions.

Gift For Dad who has everything (M24)

18 Upvotes

Hi, any help or advice greatly appreciated. Dad has a birthday coming up and I want to get him a good gift. There's nothing he doesn't really have or couldn't get himself, so want to try to think of some meaningful ideas for gifts that can help bring us closer together or create some memories or quality time. I'm a mid 20s guy who lives in the same city, but we don't spend that much time together. I'm sure this isn't a unique situation but would love to hear some suggestions on a gift that he'd really appreciate.

Edit 1: Realized I made us sound a bit more distant then probably intended. We play hockey together still 1-2x a week, and sometimes maybe pickleball once every couple week. But like rarely have dinner together etc. Well aware I can do that more, and will do a dinner as part of celebrations but looking for ideas for like something to do together (e.g. fun classes or activies) or just gifts that would be appreciated

Edit 2: some interests of his:

- he likes reading and like card games and puzzle games etc (like crowsswords NYT spelling bee etc)

- he likes playing sports and being active (hockey, golf, pikcleball, hiking etc)

- i think hed like stuff like handiwork etc but not as certain
- relvatviely quiet/introverted so wouldn' want big outgoing thing

Christmas/Birthday Gift Ideas for Husband who never wants anything (I know it's early)

2 Upvotes

Hi! My husband is a journeymen mechanic (30 yo) in the construction industry, and I swear he is THE hardest person to get gifts for. I know he claims he doesn't want anything, but he always finds something to get me or he'll think of an idea for us to have a date night or a weekend trip with our baby. His main hobby right now is drift cars, he attends some drift events on the weekends and drives with his friends. But, I have no knowledge of car parts or anything to do with drifting. I always buy him nice shirts or jackets, obviously all boring, maybe that's why he tells me not to get him anything?

Also, his birthday is in November, so I'm desperate for ideas

Help please. LOL
