4 Ways to Make Gift Giving a Breeze
WOMAN'S DAY
Have Your Best Christmas Ever
Are you in charge of the family or office Secret Santa? Consider organizing it online at elfster.com — a free Secret Santa site. Everyone involved can keep a wish list and even ask questions anonymously. (What size hat do you wear? Who’s your favorite sports team?)
Apply the “Golden Rule.” If you don’t want gifts that clutter, don’t give gifts that clutter. One good non-clutter choice: mail-order food items. Order a case and give one to everyone. (See box on page 120.)
Teach kids about charity by buying a gift certificate from markmakers.org. They can then go to the website and choose what they want to donate from more than 40 items of goods and services in need around the world.
Don’t want to drop a load of money all at once? Offer the gift of a joint activity, which you pay for later when you and the recipient do it together.
