Selecting An Unusual Souvenir For Someone Who Has An Interest In Astrology
Love it or hate it Christmas shopping is something the majority of us are resigned to doing. But if you have to select a Christmas gift for an astrology enthusiast it can prove even more of a challenge. Here are a few ideas for choosing unusual Christmas gifts that, while targeting star sign fans, are actually applicable to anyone who is hard to buy for.
It may be you enjoy the frenzy of gift shopping each year. I do not. I am too busy for Christmas shopping and have things I would much prefer to do. So I really do not need the additional hassle of searching for a present for someone with an interest I know little about, such as the zodiac.
Possibly you manage to buy unusual gifts for everyone and their faces light up with delight when they open their Christmas gifts. My family make polite ripples of gratitude then I find the slippers, after-shave or whatever, hidden away unused in a cupboard six weeks later. (They can usually manage to use all the alcohol!)
I really resent time and money wasted on presents that just do not hit the mark with the recipient. It's not that I'm mean, or uncaring, I just do NOT know what to buy people that will fit in with their hobbies. I have enough difficulty looking for unique gifts in areas I know well, without the further worry of looking for astrology Christmas novelties on top of everything else.
My family and friends are all fortunate enough that they have everything they want - well, at least in the category of expenses that I can afford as a present. I bet a Christmas Porsche for one son would raise much excitement and the other would be thrilled if he received the keys to his own home. But with a tight Christmas budget, shortage of time and no idea what gifts to buy, I need to get a little creative, particularly when searching for a Christmas gift for a star sign enthusiast.
While still relevant to our zodiac enthusiast, let's generalize and consider the best characteristics of unusual Christmas gifts?
1. It should be different - not tried and tested slippers, chocolate, smellies etc
2. It should be affordable by the giver
3. It should NOT look crummy to the recipient - ideal if it's unlikely that they can guess the cost
4. It should be practical or (alternatively) completely frivolous
5. It should be something they have always wanted
and/or
6. It should be something they would never dream of buying for themselves
7. It should be easy to buy (on the Internet is best for me, I have no wish to wait in line for hours to buy this year's latest fad gadget)
8. It would be an added bonus (but not compulsory) if it gave something to chat about instead of the Christmas TV
