10 Gifts For Any Person Or Occasion
Dr. Northrup

It's that time of year and if you're anything like me, you can't think of what to get your best friend nonetheless your coworkers/teachers/acquaintances. When creativity doesn't strike and your running out of time, these 10 gift ideas will be great for anyone that you feel deserves a little something.

1. Gift Cards

Gift cards offer flexibility and are perfect for someone you don't know a lot about. They're a little impersonal but who doesn't love a free meal or tank of gas.

2. Amazon Fire Tablet

We all know someone obsessed with Amazon so the Amazon Fire Tablet is the perfect gift and at only $40 or below you can't go wrong. It's a gift that seems over the top, but won't break the bank.

3. Candles

Candles are a timeless and practical gift great for anyone. Whether it's to make a room smell nice, set the mood, or shed some light when the power goes out, the array of colors and smells can suit anyone's picky preferences.

4. Framed Photograph

Framed photographs are thoughtful and affordable. Give one to an acquaintance and watch them smile from ear to ear.

5. Small Blanket/Beach Towel

You can guarantee that no one else will get someone a blanket or towel because it's never thought of, but whenever your acquaintance uses it they will always think of you.

6. Books

Give someone a favorite book of yours. This way they get to know you a little better and you can both talk about it after they're done reading it.

7. Earphones

Who doesn't use earphones on a daily basis? These little guys are so useful but also happen to be easy to lose. Set someone up with a new set for Christmas. They can be bought within a wide range of prices and styles giving you plenty of options.

8. School Apparel

Everyone enjoys sporting their Alma Mater's logo and one can never have too much. With various T-shirt and hoodie options, you don't need to know someone's exact size to get them something that will leave them reminiscing.

9. Monthly Subscriptions

From food, to makeup, to clothes, and more monthly subscription boxes give you so many options and can be extremely affordable. Check out this website for a list of monthly subscriptions for under $10!

10. Adult Coloring Book

A silly gift that is bound to get some use out of it. Again, no one is going to think of this one so be unique and get one for an acquaintance you think will enjoy it!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
