With over one thousand gift ideas in five convenient categories -- Expensive, Inexpensive, Homemade, Sentimental, and Far Out/Unusual -- 1001 Great Gift Ideas is an excellent source for those who are constantly challenged by trying to find that "perfect gift." Starting off in Chapter One, the authors provide some warm-up to begin the gift-giving strategy, such as multipurpose gifts that can be kept on hand for last-minute gift emergencies, and keeping a gift log to prevent repeat gift giving. Subsequent chapters are organized for easy reference according to whether the gift is for parents, children, co-workers, sweethearts, or friends. This book is a wealth of information for everything from selecting a gift to wrapping it, as well as unexpected sources for finding just the right present. And to keep track of whom you need to get gifts for and when, there are convenient monthly gift-giving organizers in the back of the book, along with gift profiles to record information like sizes and favorite colors for those people you buy for often.
