Birthday Present Poll


I went around asking people if they'd rather get money, a gift card, or an actual gift as a birthday present.When I asked people most of them said money. The people that said an actual gift said an actual gift because it shows that the person actually thought about the gift and what to get you. No one said a gift card. When I asked why they said because you can only spend a certain amount of money in one place. The majority said money because then they can spend it anywhere.

Birthday Presents

My birthday just passed this week and everyone was asking me what I wanted, but I couldn't think of anything to tell them. Usually I know what I want, but this year I couldn't. Some of you may be the same way. So here are some ideas of birthday gifts to give.

1. MONEY: Money is always a good gift to give, but it doesn't seem like you really thought about the gift very much. If you give them money then they can use it anywhere they like. Money gives them lots of options. Money will always be a good option, but if they're a really good friend then money might not be the best idea. You might want to give them something a little more personal.

2. PICTURE: If you're a girl and you want to give something to one of your other girl friends then a picture in a frame that you decorated would be nice. Find a picture of you and your friend that you like the best and buy a frame that's plain that you could decorate. Maybe make the frame their favorite color or paint it in their favorite color. They'll keep it forever and always think back to the day you took the picture and remember the memories.

3. GIFT CARDS: Gift cards may be a good idea. Personally, I don't really like gift cards that much because if you only get twenty-five dollars to Hollister Co. you can't really buy anything there for twenty-five dollars, so you'll have to wait until you get enough money to buy something. If your friend might like gift cards then buy them a gift card to one of their favorite stores.

4. JEWELRY: For girls jewelry is always a good gift. You could get them a ring, bracelets, or necklaces. You could buy them a friendship bracelet. If your friend doesn't really wear jewelry, then that might not be the best gift for them. You want something that they'll wear.

I hope that these gift ideas help you with finding a good gift!
