The Best and Worst Christmas Gifts Ever

There’s only a few days left from now ‘til Christmas and you have several people to buy gifts for. So before you buy one, consider these checklists. This may serve as a hint or warning to you on what to give to your loved ones. I surveyed some people about the best and worst material things they could ever get during Christmas season and so, THE Top 5 best and worst goes to… (Drum rolls)

Best Gifts:
5. Gift Certificates

It’s nice to receive a GC most especially if it is for shopping in a department store, buffet lunch in a restaurant, or a free 24-hour net in an internet café! I’m sure they will really love it especially so if they are fond of “libre” (free) things! 

4. Bags/Shoes

Things that are always present on wish lists are probably bags and shoes. Are they Instagram addicts and kept on posting #shoefie (selfie for shoes), bags, or #OOTD’s? Then maybe it’s a sign! 

3. Perfume

For scent lovers, perfumes are perhaps the best gift. But you have to make sure that it suits their tastes! Be careful. *wink (100mililitros.com)

2. Gadgets

For techy people, I guess nothing could be better than surprising them with cool gadgets! You have a wide array of choices: from smartphones, cameras, laptops, to wireless devices! 

1. Money

Nothing could beat, I guess, for the best Christmas gift eveeerr—MONEEEEY! Of course, you can buy and do anything you want! 

Worst Gifts:  
5. Towel

Congratulations! You gave them a gift that could change their lives every after they take a bath! Though it is a great help, but please! People know where towels are sold and they’ll buy them when they want them. 

4. Picture Frame

This thing falls under the “practical gift” category. Again, if you think that this will make them the happiest person in the world because they have something that their picture can be put on, then forget about it! Christmas is about giving someone a gift they wouldn’t normally buy on their own, not giving them the chance to display their family pictures on tables and linger on the frame design.

3. Photo Album

Same as with the picture frame. Enough said. 

2. Piggy bank

Nothing, again I repeat, NOTHING good can come from this gift. They will either come to the quick conclusion that you think they’re “One Day Millionaire” or like extravagant, or they will use it to save up money in a “cute” way. Except for you are giving it to an 8-year old kid. 

1. Kitchenware

Can be in the form of glass, plates, spoon and fork, or knife- You gave them a gift they could only use once a year for about a day or when there is a party or fiesta! A slow clap for that matter. Unless you are buying it for a 50-year old woman with 5 cats, no one wants it. Trust me, a teenager will break down at some point because he/she is expecting best gifts listed on his/her wish lists! Maybe you’ve thought that it’s not just good for themselves, but for their families too. Well, congrats! Another add-on display to their cabinets.  

If you happened to receive some of the worst gifts listed above, then don’t worry because I also had my experience. Nevertheless, best gifts are indeed packaged with love. Have a fabulous Christmas and may the best gifts be in your favor! Werq!
