Simple Gifts

When it is time to give someone a gift, you are not always wanting to go big or go home.
Sometimes a simple gift is the best way to show someone that you appreciate what they have done for you or just that you appreciate them. You don’t always need to go with a diamond necklace or the best electronic device that is out there. Getting something that isn’t particularly expensive or glitzy can actually be exactly what the person you are getting the gift is looking for because they don’t want to feel as though you spent a bundle on them. In that vein, we have decided to bring you the top ten simple gifts you can get someone.
Before you continue reading about the Simple Gifts there is a special announcement we would like to share with you. Catalogs.com has negotiated special medicare rates for our vibrant community of seniors. If you are over the age of 60, you can head over to our Seniors Health Section which is full of information about medicare. All you need is your zip code and a few minutes of your time to potentially save 100s of dollars on your medicare bills.
10. Gift Certificate
A gift certificate is one of the best gifts you can give someone because this gift also gives them the freedom to get something they really want. You don’t have to pile a ton of money on the gift certificate in order for it to be a nice present for that special someone. Almost every store offers a gift certificate, and many of them will email the certificate directly to the recipient. Simple!
9. Calendars and Planners
It seems that everybody is trying to get organized these days. We’re all so busy, and involved in so many things that it shouldn’t be a big surprise. People can use organizing apps on their phone or tablet, but for many people an old-fashioned paper calendar or planner is still the best choice. Selecting a beautiful wall calendar or desk planner is a simple gift that will be appreciated every day of the year.
8. Cigars
A box of cigars can go a long way in showing someone that you are thankful for their friendship, or that you are thankful for something they actually did for you. Like the wine, you don’t need to go with the best of the best, but if you are going to give them some cigars you are going to want to stay clear of the cheapest of the cheap. A sampler an excellent choice. Convenience store rack selections don’t make a particularly good gift.
7. Candy
Who doesn’t love candy? This is one of those gifts that you can go a little too simple, but you can also get right on the mark if you put a little thought into it. Get them a gift box full of delicious chocolate and watch their face light up.
6. Muffin Basket
This particular gift has actually gotten sort of a bum wrap because so many sitcoms have made fun of it. The fact of the matter is that if you get someone a good muffin basket, they are going to love it.
5. Popcorn Tins
Is there really anyone who doesn’t love a good popcorn tin? Whether you are talking about cheddar popcorn, caramel or chocolate covered or even something a little more fancy there is a love of that flavor out there.
4. Tickets
This can be a simple gift, or it can be made into something much fancier. If you are really trying to stay within a budget, you can always get someone a couple of passes to their favorite movie theater and let them pick the show.
3. Meat and Cheese Basket
Much like popcorn, there aren’t a whole lot of people who don’t enjoy a nice mix of meat and cheese. You are going to want to find a nice, high quality basket but once you do that, you’re golden.
2. Picture Frame
One heartwarming gift you can give someone is a nice picture frame. You can even provide a photo of the two of you or a photo that means something to them. You can also just let them fill it with their favorite choice.
