Save money
If close friends can give something expensive, then presentations for acquaintances should not spend large sums. Symbolic little surprises can be quite budgetary.
- New Year's little things. Trinkets, pillows or anti-stress balls with the image of the symbol of the year, scented candles in the form of a tangerine or Santa Claus, Christmas decorations pressed in the form of a towel herringbone - all this can easily create a festive atmosphere.
- With your own hands you can make an original fortune cookie. You just need to put notes in them with pleasant wishes for the coming year.
Despite the fact that gifts can be inexpensive, completely useless or boring, they should not be. Let’s figure out what is undesirable to give for the New Year.
- Do not give figurines (even with the symbol of the year) to those who are not keen on collecting them. A symbolic gift should bring at least some benefit (towel, soap, flash drive and so on). Fridge magnets are also not popular with everyone.If you ignore this fact, your present may turn out to be useless trash that will gather dust somewhere.
- Commonplace toiletries (shampoo, shower gel, shaving foam and so on) are also inappropriate as a New Year's gift. This is commonplace. In addition, it creates the feeling that you ran into the nearest store and grabbed the first thing that came to hand. Slippers and socks are in the same group of inappropriate options.
- Cosmetics and Perfumes You can give only to close friends whose tastes you know. Even if you are an employee of a network cosmetics company, suppress your desire to seduce all your friends with products you got at a cheap price. These people may just not need her.
- Do not give too expensive gifts to those who cannot answer you the same. Otherwise, they will feel obliged to you, which will ruin the pleasant impression of the presentation itself.
- Money is a good gift for an anniversary or a wedding, but not for the New Year. If you just did not have time to think over and buy gifts, but want to answer your gifts to friends, this is permissible.
But it’s better to invest the sum in another form (for example, in some kind of certificate according to the preferences of your friends).
