When gifting, I prefer to give gift cards to a person's favorite store, or a Visa or Mastercard of the same. It's important to me that everyone is pleased and happy. I too like a gift card. There are usually so many things swirling in my head that I would like, so I find that the best option. I try to satisfy needs first (that doesn't always happen!), then get those kind of frivolous things which are just fun. I really try to stock up on my perfume favorites while so many gift sets are available. I love the fact that many of the sets now include a rollerball fragrance---they're so much easier to drop into your purse without taking up a lot of space.
I do favor shopping the department stores this time of year. Great deals abound as "competition" is tough. I've featured items from my favorites.
