ALT-1 Inexpensive Birthday Gift Ideas for a best Friend
You can’t choose your relatives but you can choose your friends, making your best friend one of the most special people in your life. You probably talk about everything under the sun. Your best friend is sure to know if your purse strings are hurting and won’t expect to be dazzled with a birthday gift that breaks your budget. Your best friend will appreciate an inexpensive gift knowing that you thought of her on her birthday.
Perhaps you spend evenings together watching weepy or funny movies, or movies you choose for the chance to mutually ogle a favorite actor. The props are bound to be chocolate and wine, so a bottle, box of chocolates or a DVD are sure to go down well.
If your friend likes to indulge in long bubble baths with a great book you can choose an inexpensive bath oil or bottle of bubbles. If she prefers showers you can treat her to scented shower wash. Gifts of luscious olive oil soaps or yogurt soaps will be pleasing, as will a miniature bottle of her favourite perfume.
Best friends are the easiest person to choose gifts for as you know them so well that you know all their tastes and foibles. Whilst the outside world may think your friends earlobes shine with real diamonds you will know that fakes please just as much, and your friend will be happy to receive an inexpensive pair of earrings for their aesthetic appeal. Then again you will also be in the know if she loathes cheap earrings and make another choice.
Not many people will be as intimately acquainted with your best friend’s tastes as you are. You will know if a throw pillow, scented candles, or plants are the type of thing she likes to fill her home with. You will know her favourite author, tastes in music, or the type of magazine she favours, and be able to choose an inexpensive gift to perfectly suit her taste. One thing you are sure to be familiar with is the kind of things she loathes and would never appreciate as a gift, enabling you to steer clear from ghastly gift gaffes.
If your best friend has a pet she will appreciate a gift which spoils her beloved Flipper, Kitty or Doggie, and you could select an item which she could dress the pet in or something for them to play with together. Perhaps she likes to co-ordinate her own wardrobe with her pets and you are sure to know what would match.
You really can’t go wrong choosing an inexpensive birthday gift for your best friend as you are certain to know their likes and dislikes almost as much as you know your own. You don’t need to try to impress with an expensive gift but opt for something which you know will be sure to raise a smile.
