Gift Ideas Sprinkled with Creativity

You love holiday shopping! But there’s always that one person.  The best friend who has everything.  The boss who can never be impressed.  Someone you just started dating and you don't want to send the wrong message. Well don't get nervous, Friends and Family Circle is here to help! Here are some great ideas to help get your creativity gears rollin' before you hit the Black Friday sales that are just around the corner!!!!

If you're gift-hunting for someone loves business, politics and the like, you may want to buy them a subscription to a publication that covers these topics. A subscription to Bloomberg Businessweek or USA Today shows you understand their interests and with various subscription options, it really is the gift that keeps on giving!

What about that friend who's a sports fanatic? Consider a gift certificate to help them better their game - if they're in to sailing, look into weekend charter courses, in to golf, maybe a lesson with a Pro!  A simple Google search will return lots of local options in your area, and it again shows you know and understand them!

Have a boss with an indescribable taste palette when it comes to wine or whiskey? How about an old bottle of one of their favorites?  They'll be very impressed!  Dress it up in a gift basket and add some pairings such as nuts, cheeses, cigars, etc.  This lets you decide how much you want to spend, and helps you put something together quickly that shows A LOT of thought!

You want your gift to be memorable. With a little thought and a sprinkle of creativity, you can give the gift that gets the right reaction, and sends the right message!  You don't have to spend a lot to show how much you care!
