    ididitforcheese. Homemade cookies. One year I was particularly broke and decided to make everyone Xmas biscuits. Felt a bit stingy as I didn't really spend anything on it (had all the flour, eggs, spices etc already at home and only had to buy a single chocolate bar to make choco chips) but people LOVED it and now ask me for them each year. I usually personalise the flavours or ice the person's name/something they like on them. For one friend (who loves warm cookies) I gifted a log of cookie dou

    paramourns One of the best gifts I've ever received was a big box of thrifted books. I am a big reader of trashy romance novels and I go through them pretty fast. They paid like $5 for this box of books and it gave me like 3 months of reading material. I was super happy! ↑ 8.9k ↓ Share

    [deleted] Depends on person. My wife never complains about jewelry. Also one time I couldn't think of what to get her. I let her have a shopping spree at a make up store she likes. She only wanted 3 things. It costed 85$ and they were on sale so tread carefully on that land mine idea. 7.6k Share

    justa_flesh_wound I made custom coasters one year for my entire family. Step 1- Go to Home Depot get free floor samples(already perfect coaster size) Step 2- Use a wood-burning tool to put initials into them. Step 3- Give as a gift. I did this several years ago and whenever I visit I still see the coasters out. About 2 hours of burning and $0 spent and I had a heartfelt gift for everyone. ↑ 6.0k ↓ Share

    option43 Massage voucher. Most adults don't really need physical things. The ones who do either buy it themselves (if they can afford it, ofc) or they would ask for it, which would make the gift not so much a last minute one. 3.8k Share ...

    aurarasburst. A card with $5 in it and a super sweet message from my grandpa about how proud of me he is. Happened to me when I was 12. My grandpa had just passed away and he had already made cards for everyone. I still have the card and the $5. 3.2k Share

    LividAtmosphere · Depends on who you're shopping for. Like, my broke college friends love getting gift cards to things like GrubHub and Uber Eats. My mom friends enjoy those gift baskets that come with bath bombs lotions and stuff or a new, fluffy robe Also if you have the spare time and want parent friends to really love you, a handmade coupon for a free night of babysitting so they can go to a movie or just get dinner, or even stay home and just sleep lol If all else fails, an Amazon gift card

    EatsAtoms Regularly If you've got a fairly geeky group of friends, fancy leather notebooks from Barnes and Noble will do the trick easily. If not, the amazon gift card always works. 1.1k Share

    Potential_Radish Movie theater gift cards. I buy them in $25 increments so people can have a date night. I don't care how many Hulus, Netflixes, and Amazon Primes you have, everyone loves seeing a movie on the big screen. I get those for teachers, coaches, etc. Everyone loves it. 454 Share
