Gift Ideas for People Who Are Impossible to Shop For
We all have that person. The one who already owns everything, wants nothing, and answers every gift question with "oh I do not need anything." They are lying. They need something weird. They just do not know it yet.
The trick to shopping for impossible people is to stop trying to be practical and start trying to be memorable. Nobody remembers a gift card. Everybody remembers the time someone gave them a jar of dehydrated water.
For the Person Who Has Everything
Dehydrated Water
They have everything? Great. Now they have nothing, in a jar, beautifully packaged. It is the ultimate gift for someone who cannot be surprised, because nobody sees this coming.
Retirement Plan - Fake Gold Bar Set
For the person who has everything except a solid financial plan. Twelve fake gold bars that look expensive, weigh nothing, and serve as a daily reminder that we are all just winging it.
For the Person Who Thinks They Are Too Cool
Sarcastic Comment Loading Whiskey Glass
A whiskey glass for someone who thinks they are funnier than they are. Which is everyone who drinks whiskey. Let them sip their bourbon while their glass does the roasting for them.
My Last Nerve Candle
Lavender scented. Passive aggressive. The perfect gift for the friend, coworker, or family member who is always "fine" but clearly is not fine.
For the Person You Do Not Know Well Enough
Brain Slice Coaster Set
You do not know their hobbies? Their favorite color? Their coffee order? You DO know they need coasters. And these coasters look like brain cross-sections, so at minimum it will be a conversation piece.
Hand-Holding Magnetic Socks
Universally giftable. Not too personal. Not too impersonal. Just weird enough to be memorable. The magnets make the socks hold hands, which is either adorable or horrifying depending on your threshold.
The Gift-Giving Formula
The best gift for an impossible person follows a simple formula: something they would never buy for themselves plus something that makes them laugh equals a gift they actually remember.
