We all know those type, the type that is impossible to shop for because they have everything they could ever want.  They never wait for holidays to get the things they like, they just buy them and you are stuck with absolutely no ideas besides getting them the same gift card you got them last year!  I have a hard time shopping for my husband and my mom. Over the years, I have found some great ideas that are pretty fool-proof for these impossible gift-receivers.  Do you have any gift ideas?

1. Personalized Pet gifts.  Yes we have all seen the photo gifts such as snow globes, calendars, canvases, you name it!  However, what is one being that can do no wrong?  A person’s pet.  One of the best gifts I received was a picture of my cat and dog (below!) on an adorable Easel from Shutterfly.  For around $20, you can customize an adorable gift for just about anyone!

2. Tickets to an event!  What better gift than one you can benefit from?  Tickets to your honey’s favorite baseball game, weekend get-away, or the perfect theatre show for your mother-in-law?  You cannot beat spending time together and these gifts are the gifts that keep on giving.  There is something to look forward to and you can get creative with the packaging. For example, if you want to plan a girl’s weekend for your BFF’s birthday, you can pack her an adorable personalized canvas and fill it up with goodies and the itinerary of what you plan on doing.  Canvas from  Personalization Mall.  On  budget?  There are so many event-inspired gifts on Groupon and Living Social such as Paint Nights, Weekend Get-Aways, and even extreme things such as Sky-diving!

3. Blast from the Past gifts. This is perfect for people you have grown up with. Maybe they loved a certain type of retro-candy or have a thing for 90’s music. They will love the thought you put into a customized retro-gift basket! Personally, I would be thrilled if I opened a Super Nintendo on Christmas Day! Check out Ebay for some really awesome gifts that will be totally unexpected and awesome!
