I have received a jar of salsa (wrapped in nice Christmas paper) and a nerf gun (for Mother's Day). I like having a gift I can discuss at dinner later.

My son’s favorite presents have been maps (sourced from hotel lobbies), fossils (or just neat rocks) and once, an altoid tin with random seeds in them.

I love this anti gift guide. My niece likes to gift people “little treasures” she finds e.g. a bottle cap, a twig, a sequin, and sorry Wirecutter but these gifts are perfect
