If you’ve spent time shopping with them, you’ll start to realise that men… simply don’t have the patience for it. While you’re browsing racks upon racks, they’ll be sitting off to the side and waiting for you to finish. So then, that begs the question: What do you gift to men who seem like they don’t want anything at all?
Rather than playing it safe with socks, or tee, we have some gifting ideas that will cater to different personalities! Just sit back, and watch as their faces light up with joy! Best of all, you finally get to convey your thanks, love and appreciation.
