| Tips on Choosing and Buying Perfect Gifts

- Be Nosy. Talk with your gift recipient to find out what they are interested in.
- Keep an Eye Out. When you visit them look for clues by the types of magazines and books they read, decor of home, music they listen to, etc. When you are shopping make a mental note of the things that they look at.
- Ask Questions. Talk with other friends or family members to get hints on items they may be wanting or for insight on their hobbies.
- Get Social. Search to see if they have a MySpace, Facebook, or other social networking page. You may find some good tips such as what their hobbies are, favorite movies and TV shows, and music genres.
- Make Sure it's Appropriate. When buying gifts remember your relationship with the gift recipient, selecting an inappropriately intimate gift for a co-worker could make for an awkward moment at the office.
