No more mistakes: This is how you become a super gift giver!

Gifts without love are not perceived as a sign that the giver cannot do better. They are perceived as gifts without love.

Remember: you don’t have to like the gift

Put yourself in the buyer’s shoes. One should love the gift, not the person giving the gift. Gifts in new couple relationships are an exception. With them you reveal something about your personality. This could be a favorite book, for example.

2

Don’t try to train someone with your talent

Don’t try to educate the recipient morally or tastefully with gifts. Educational intent often triggers an internal rejection of the gift in the other person. If someone wants a video game, they don’t want to be surprised with a book of poetry. And if your husband never wears the clothes that you regularly give him, this should be considered a sign.

3

Be careful with very expensive gifts!


The financial value of a gift can affect the happiness of the recipient. If someone spends a lot of money on a person, it may mean that their relationship with them means a lot to them. However, very expensive gifts can create a feeling of pressure and dependency. Especially if the recipient feels obliged to give an equally expensive return gift.

4

Emotional value is the most important


«More important than the financial value of a gift is its emotional value. This is expressed in the special thoughts and efforts of the giver. This could take the form of a photo book showing shared moments of the year, for example. The buyer thinks: Someone thought about me and spent time and effort on my behalf.”

5

Romance: Fulfillment of said wishes

Loveless gifts are perceived this way by the recipient and are seen as signals of problems in the relationship. This category includes, for example, a bouquet of flowers purchased at the gas station at the last minute or socks in romantic relationships. Gifts often bring special joy when the giver shows that he remembers the wishes in question.

6

No experiments on children’s wishes!

Children cannot realize their wishes on their own. That’s why it’s important to be as aware as possible of the wishes you write, paint or paste at the top of your wish list. Giving the wooden version of the desired plastic pirate boat – this will only cause tears. If a request cannot be fulfilled due to delivery bottlenecks, which may occur more frequently this year, you must notify this early enough.

All gifts must be the same size

When giving gifts at Christmas, everyone present compares who gave and received what. That’s why his less loved son-in-law should be given as much importance as his own daughter. In such cases, a gift for both is an option. And your daughter will get something bigger for her birthday.

8.

Zeitgeist cannot be ignored

As social sensitivity increases, the risk that the gift will trigger angry protests rather than joy also increases. Examples of this include children’s books about explorers that romanticize the subject of colonization. There are also lifestyles, such as veganism, that should be taken into consideration when giving gifts. If the risk of doing something wrong seems too great, the only alternative is money.

Giving nothing is not the solution

Criticism of consumerism is part of Christmas, and every year many people ask whether they should give themselves something away this year. Such a decision sends the following message: People no longer think it is valuable to please each other. Moreover, the agreement is often broken, making fools of those who stick to it.

10

Cash can also be used instead of coupons


Gift certificates are, after all, gifts of money. This is especially clear for those who can use flexibly, sometimes with several hundred providers. The market for these widely applicable coupons is estimated at 4 billion euros in Germany. “They are valuable to companies because most of them are not repaid.”
