Please share your best gift ideas.

Here are some ideas I have given or received which are 10/10.

Snack Subscription Box
https://www.universalyums.com

I received this as a gift for a year and it was so fun. Every month you get a box of snack foods from a different country. Chips, candy, etc. This is for the person that loves novelty and isn't counting calories :) DYOR but this specific brand rocks.

Luggage Works
https://luggageworks.com

They make ultra durable luggage which is what flight crews and pilots often use. There is also the option to have customized stitching if you want the persons name on the piece. A bit pricey but worth every penny.

Thermapen Digital Thermometer
https://www.thermoworks.com/thermapen-one/

The gold standard. I love this thing. Quick readings with an automatic backlight which turns on in low light situations. Durable. This is a must have for any BBQ enthusiast.

Steak Knife Set
https://www.amazon.com/Zwilling-Henckels-Steak-German-Stainless/dp/B00K80JKV2/ref=sr_1_11?crid=203U0OXNIRQBX&keywords=steak+knives&qid=1667939966&sprefix=steak+knives,aps,157&sr=8-11

This is the set I have but there are lots of other good ones. Just make sure they are from a good manufacturer. Ideally, solid construction without any wood or screws so they survive in the dishwasher and last a long time. Some good deals found on eBay which is where I got my set.

Bose BlueTooth Speaker
https://www.amazon.com/Bose-SoundLink-Portable-Long-Lasting-Bluetooth/dp/B06XCW4VFS/ref=sr_1_14?crid=32WA50UVJHP95&keywords=bose+speaker&qid=1667940202&sprefix=bose+speake,aps,157&sr=8-14&ufe=app_do:amzn1.fos.c3015c4a-46bb-44b9-81a4-dc28e6d374b3

There are lots of brands and models DYOR. I really like the Bose brand and have stuck with that. For anyone that doesn't have or use one yet they are fantastic.

Other ideas:
- Buy two tickets to an upcoming concert/event and go with them.
- A nice watch
- Find out their prescription and get them prescription sunglasses
- Monthly wine subscription box (BC VQA are good and a novelty for USA folks) https://www.pentictonwineinfo.com/index.php/wine-club

Okay I am tapped!

What are the best gifts you have received, given, or witnessed?

I just gave this to a PCFer yesterday. For being older than me.

LED bottles also nice. It’s a decoration after the bubbly is gone.

Also gold bottles. They’re irresistible to even snobby sommeliers.
 
Usually the sunglass I like I end up gifting the same for clients/friends. Going to 49ers vs bucs for a west coast buddy later this year. cubano cigars are always appreciated and wonderful shared experiences.
 
Civivi Elementum pocket knife. This is like a $300 knife for $60. I love mine!

Ryobi cordless 3 gallon wet/dry vacuum. Uses Ryobi standard 18v batteries.

That Civivi is very nice looking. I've become a snob for steel just because the good stuff retains an edge so much better. D2 is not my favorite steel. I like flippers but the axis lock on benchmades is so damn nice I struggle with other styles.

What's your favorite flipper (knife, not PCFer)? Lol
 
Oh, Christmas and gift exchanges. These have become quiet funny in our family.

Gag gifts of:

Forum Novelties Grow a Girlfriend Gag Novelty (Packaging May Vary) https://a.co/d/h52pIqD

30 Min unboxing session to discover the receipt of an gift being shipped in the mail.

To decent gifts:

DIY photo transfer to wood:

Customized clock (insert important memory as background)

DIY whiskey/gin infusion kits

Bluetooth meat thermometer

However, the lucky individual that drew my name this year will have an interesting feat. As the only gift/wish list I posted was to harvest chips from any local casino and document the experience :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
 
Coloring Books for Adults. When gifting this I always include a nice set of color pencils too. Amazon has an endless choice of coloring books and nice colored pencils. This is specifically a great gift for people that are high strung or have anxiety.

excellent for retirees as well, my mom tears through these things in her boredom. she particularly likes the ones from this author:
