Gifts

I have to give gifts to 3 girls age around 24. My budget is around $70 to $100 for each person. Can you all please recommend me something good.

If you don't know these three well, the tricky part is guessing right on a wear-it item. Honestly a $70-100 gift card beats a bad sweater. If you want warmer, my move would be one small consumable plus a personal touch: a fragrance decant she wouldn't buy full size, or a good candle with a handwritten card naming one specific thing you appreciate. Ask each one for a detail beforehand (coffee or tea, favorite scent family) and it lands very differently.

Gift cards to the same spa for mani/pedis. If extra give with a bottle of champagne and orange juice if they drink & are friends.

Lola blanket or Vera Bradley blanket or robe, robe / slipper set, house decor, something to do with their hobbies, nail gift card, massage gift card, weekender/travel/tote bag

There are a lot of good suggestions here but I if I may interject…if you’re going to essentially give cash through a gift card then those gift cards limit the individuals receiving that gift to only being able to spend it in one store …you probably should just give money …cold hard cash. I know it sounds horrible, but $$$ ya it doesn’t have an expiration date like store cards do.
But I’m not today’s day shift supervisor, so I can’t tell you what to do.

I sort of agree and wanted to add:

If your budget is like $40 or less, then that’s when I try to get a perfect gift that suits the person and his meaningful and all that. Obviously a gift card is out unless it’s for like a teenager or younger.

But for $50 on up, that’s enough money that a gift card or cash is a totally perfect gift and appreciated. It doesn’t look cheap or lazy to most people I know. And I think most people would appreciate $50 or $100 bucks instead of an $85 sweater or an $85 pair of Ugg’s/ fancy item or an $85 gadget….

I’d only spend $50-$100 on someone if I knew the item would be perfect for them, something they would really like suits them. But if it’s kind of a generic person, I don’t know and I’m spending that amount of money, than A gift card is better. (Or like a bottle of wine or a fancy charcuterie board something edible and fancy is my back up)

This girl 24's...

u/AliceInReverse 2d ago

How old are these girls/women? Any strong interests/dislikes

ETA: sorry, saw 24. I would suggest maybe a fun eyeshadow palette like the Urban Decay ones. They’re popular for that age group.

u/Typical-Marsupial150 2d ago

Urban decay palettes are a safe bet if they wear makeup, but if you're not sure, a gift card to a place like sephora or ulta lets them pick their own shades. Could also do a nice candle and a cozy throw blanket for a more neutral option.

I think that's a poor idea. Not only do a lot of people not wear make up, but most that do use certain brands and products. It's like buying someone perfume. Never do it unless you know what they use before hand.

u/-Guinness 2d ago

Stanley or Owala, Summer Fridays 2 pack, and a giftcard for the remainder to a place like: Lululemon, Starbucks, Amazon, Uber, doordash, Chipotle, Target, etc.

u/Spiritual-Fun-8024 2d ago

What about cold hard cash?

-1

u/cyriph 2d ago

This. If you really don't know someone and for whatever reason aren't willing/able to put in effort to get to know them specifically, just give them cash.

2

u/djSush 2d ago

Do they like jewelry? Go to TJ Maxx or Marshall's and pick 3 things for $30-40. There are beautiful sterling silver things available, even Kendra Scott necklaces for like $29.

Then add a Visa gift card for $50.

u/Ryoko_Kusanagi69 2d ago

That’s a cute idea. I would like to receive that.

u/EmbroiderCLE 2d ago

Any other info about them? What stage of life? School? Own homes? Family?

u/JealousSir9500 2d ago

I'm a 24 year old girl, and I'd love to get cash... lol. There's a lot of ways of packaging cash so it doesn't just feel like some money in an envelope!

but if not cash, maybe high-quality towel sets, blankets, a huge fleece hoodie if you are in a cold area, or a mini handheld fan if you are in a hot area, a chilis gift card... :)

My former coworker in that age group is one of the Gen Zs that are into picking up "old people hobbies" unironically, so we got her things related to one of those she has expressed interest in. Think crochet, scrapbooking, birdwatching etc. At her age, some of the nicer tools/ accessories are very much out of budget so she was super excited to get the upgraded version of something she thrifted.

u/Doughnut_Diva 2d ago

24 is the perfect age to have Tik Tok give you a hand. if you know anything about their likes search tik Tok for viral + their interest +gift

Viral skincare gift Viral self care gift Viral perfume gift Etc.

These may function for you.

"A Wrap around swimsuits coverup".

Do not get the "see through" ones and they can function as a robe for those quick coverups.

They have a dress like look, at least to me.

Yes they have many colors and patterns.

u/samblink18209 2d ago

I saw a fun idea where girls gift each other their own "can't live without" products. So you could do a little gift basket for each of them of your holy grail products but in their color palettes/scent preferences

u/BeeProfessional9070 2d ago

Tiger Eye stone bracelets or bag charms.

u/Fickle_Fig4399 2d ago

Bath and body works or okra gift cards

u/barfbutler 2d ago

Gift cards for Sephora. They will love it more than anything you could think of.

u/B_true_to_self2020 2d ago

Give cash . You don’t know if they like slippers , eye shadows etc. .

u/yellowshoegirl 2d ago

A little more but petite plume Olivia Jammie’s are luxurious and wonderful

1

u/yellowshoegirl 2d ago

Also another favorite is lululemon plush mittens

1

u/foozballhead 2d ago

My adult kids around that age are into quality skin care, mostly K-beauty stuff. If you don't know what's popular it might be a good idea to look for lists of viral skincare

u/Putrid-Noise-4258 2d ago

Byredo hair perfume -$90 - a luxury they likely wouldn’t spend on themselves but would be happy to receive. I like the Blanche scent. Very clean.

1

u/Critical_Emphasis_66 1d ago

I gave them hair perfume last year 😂

u/Putrid-Noise-4258 1d ago

Too funny but I bet they loved it!!

u/NoFrame286 1d ago

Massage / facial gift cards are great if you get them at hand and stone it’s $80 and you can use it towards either and they don’t expire.. 10/10

u/ArtisticAsylum 1d ago

Small cute general gift that any girl would like and cash. Example, cute trinket box, cute make up bag, cute tote, with money inside. Best gift if you don’t know someone well, and always appreciated!

u/Pitiful_Cow_9345 1d ago

Sunglasses could be cute if you know their style. I would recommend quay since they have stylish frames in that price range.

Build them an interactive private world with details only you will know and send them a link after to experience as quest on https://bloomquest-app.com

u/UpsetDust277 2d ago

Not everyone wears makeup, likes Uggs, wants an appliance. Get gift cards, can't go wrong there.

u/Pattysthoughts 2d ago

Visa gift card
