We all have to rush to go shopping and if you are like me, you're still holiday shopping just a day before Christmas Eve because you didn't plan ahead and Amazon Prime just wasn't going to cut it this season. Well, I have done my fair share of research and have found the best ways to make almost anyone happy is through activities! Here's a list of the ones I thought were worthy of writing about:
1. Musical Tickets! Sure, they might own everything that you would think of giving, but they can't possibly have seen every musical on Broadway or even off broadway.
2. Concert Tickets, for those people that aren't so much into the theatre but are more excited by lights and electronic music, maybe a White Panda concert or the New Years concert with Steve Aoki would be a better fit.
3. At Max Brenner, dinner isn't just about the food but it's also about all of the chocolate factory-looking surroundings that you also get to enjoy while you have delicious dinner and some thick, chocolatey dessert.
4. Let's say the person you're buying for is weird and food and music are both not something they're into, well there's always sports games! Tickets to sporting events are always super exciting and you never know the outcome so they can't possibly be bored.
5. Bread making class at Le Pain de Quotidien! You may never want to eat bread again, but you get to bake a ridiculous amount of fresh bread, whether its french bread or a chocolatey one, and even a delicious pizza for lunch.
6. Maybe your friend is gluten free, well at Voilà Chocolat you get to make you're own chocolate! Truffles, bars, you name it, a yummy experience for anyone!
7. Suppose none of these fun and exciting options work for you, stand up tickets are always a favorite! Whether it's Amy Schumer or Jerry Seinfeld, you can basically buy your friend some laughs and that has to be the best feeling!
Buying for someone that means so much to you but seems to have everything they could have wanted seems like a very difficult chore, but that's not what the holidays are about! Searching for the perfect gift should be fun! There are tons of options online to not be able to find the perfect gift.
Happy Holidays!
