3 Ways To Find The Perfect Gift For Someone Special

Finding the perfect gift for someone you care about can be challenging. Ironically, it’s not because you don’t have choices, it’s because the market is literally overflowing with too many choices. And, unless you are incredibly creative, coming up with a unique gift idea might elude you. That said, whether you’re crafty, creative or not, this is going to take some detective work on your part. Here are 3 ways to find the perfect gift for someone special.

Find The Perfect Gift For Someone Special #1: Pay Attention to the Details

This step is a woman’s specialty. Use your savvy detective skills to watch out and listen for clues to what he or she is passionate about. Another angle is to consider what things might make life easier or more pleasurable. The perfect gift can be somewhat obvious as buying an espresso machine for someone who loves fancy coffee and spends a lot of money on Starbucks. The truth is if you know this special person well, connecting to his or her needs or desires should not be that difficult. Paying attention to these details allows you to come up with something even more special as well. Add your own unique signature to the item by making it about your special connection.

Find The Perfect Gift For Someone Special #2: Gadgets, Gadgets, Gadgets

Most everyone in the modern world uses some type of technology and gadgets to help life be more productive and easier. Social media platforms like Instagram are not only known but are considered a vital part of our lives. Because of this phenomenon, consider purchasing a gift that reflects your loved one’s interest in technology. How about some camera equipment, a new computer program or hardware? Or what about a class or workshop about something that interests him or her?

Getting back to the idea that a present should make someone’s life easier — if your special someone always loses their keys, you could get him/her a small GPS tracker that can be used with a mobile app. There are many of these types of techy gadgets that could make your loved one’s heart happy!

Find The Perfect Gift For Someone Special #3: How about Nerdy Things?

If your loved one is a full-time geek or loves nerdy, quirky things, this is your opportunity to shine in the gift-giving department. Science gifts for adults can be found just about anywhere online and in brick and mortar stores. There are also many types of geekery out there. Science is only one form. Computers, books, video games, math, astronomy, and so many other things can be the topic of some pretty awesome gifts.

Again, consider what his/her passions are. What puts a broad smile on your loved one’s face? This is a perfect way to show how much you care, even if you’re not in the least interested in any of it. How about a gift that creates a memory like a trip to an out of town store or museum specializing in his/her favorite nerdy topic?

The bottom line is that you know that special person and likely understand what will make them smile. I recommend that you fish for some clues in general conversation. You can also get some hints from other friends, family, or co-workers. Don’t over think it either. Be yourself and give from you heart!
