Gift Guide - What To Keep In Your Gift Closet
Do you know what’s the worst? Surprise gifts. The kind where you feel like you should have gotten them a gift and it didn’t even cross your mind. Here are some ideas for things to keep in your gift closet that look like super person-specific and carefully selected gifts but are actually all round pleasers. A CYA gift closet, if you will. So load up on these items this Black Friday and never be blindsided by the old “neighbor’s cousin’s monogrammed-just-for-you phone pad” again.
