    I’m not spending time to try to figure out what people like

    Sort of the entire point of gift giving.

      Which I understand and appreciate … any other time of year or maybe on birthdays, I’ll take a bit of time to try to remember what the person likes and what gift they might enjoy. Usually, we’ll be doing something and the person will mention something like ‘I like that’, ‘I wish I had that’ or something … then it’s easy to just buy the thing and gift them that shortly after.

      But during Christmas, it’s really hard to try to figure out what a bunch of different people like or not like … it usually ends up that you’ll mess up on most people and get it right with a few. Which is why I settled on just cash.
