There is always the one odd sheep out of the flock – and that is the one we
always seem to have a problem finding the right Christmas gift for. This is the
“odd duck,” the person who has everything, or likes the unusual gift. This is
the person you really need to spend some time thinking about.
When it comes to Christmas gift giving, you want to find something unusual
like a special kind of memorabilia like a movie related item or even
interesting clothing garment with a fun slogan or saying. Finding the right
gift for this special person is not all that hard, you just have to put
yourself in their shoes and figure out what this person would think of as being
cool, fun and interesting.
The Non-Typical Gadget
Just because your friend or family member appears to have everything he
could ever want, doesn’t mean he can’t appreciate an unusual gadget or two. Give
him something interesting like the Blabber Meter clock that shows how much
money its’ costing your friend to listen to other people’s mindless chatter. If
this isn’t your style then maybe you’ll consider a scrolling led light belt
buckle or the high tech MP3 sunglasses for your high-tech loving friend.
The Clean Gift
You can always opt for natural soaps, spa creams, moisturizers and scrubs.
These always make an acceptable gift, but you can make it even more interesting
by adding the natural
deodorant stone or the cool De Odor Works product (a stainless steel
hourglass-shaped metal that works as a deodorant when used with water). This
could be a cool gift, providing your friend or family member doesn’t feel
offended by it.
Film and T.V. Memorabilia
This also makes a great gift, especially for the film or T.V. buff. Think of
movie posters, signed movie scripts or even fun T-shirts. You might consider
something like one of the great Doctor Who Tees,
if your friend or family member is a part of the unique Dr. Who T.V. show fan.
Dr Who, a famous BBC program first aired in 1963 and later made into a 1996
T.V. film.
Bottom Line
There are actually many appropriate gifts for the person that has it all.
But finding the right one requires just a little thought, online research and
planning. Often, the right gift for this person won’t come from a regular
department store, but instead, from an online boutique or specialty store.
I planted the tulip bulbs that I bought in the store a couple of months ago. I am not sure if it will grow or not especially after watching the video on how to plant bulbs at Gardenieres website. I followed the direction at the box of the bulbs but I found some great tips on the video below from Teena Spindler that I could have incorporated and did but it's too late now. I just hope that I would see some growth next spring, keeping my fingers crossed. I did put some Miracle Gro to the ground before I put the bulbs so let us see if it will help it.
