Festivals are a busy period for every household, be it Holi, Diwali or Christmas! From buying festive centric items for the house and family to spending time and money on getting gifts for loved ones, it takes a lot of effort in keeping up with the rituals and formalities or affectionate gestures during such celebratory times. To avoid getting caught in the rigmarole of budgetary constraints, increased prices and other market conditions, it is best to plan ahead so that you get the perfect gift for your dear ones and more bang for the buck! To begin with, don’t get carried away with the discounts and keep in mind the taxes too.

Consider gift cards as an option as well, since there’s a wide variety to choose from that includes retail outlets, movie tickets, e-commerce websites and more. Since a gift card can be used just once, it is better to get multiple cards in smaller denominations with enough validity.

No matter what age group you’re aiming at or what occasion you’re buying a gift for, there would be times when you are sure to become clueless at times about what to get. At any age, the range of options available makes all the difference in the selection of gifts. In that respect, it is best to ask your loved ones if there’s anything specific they’d like. If the gift you choose is not of use to the receiver, it’d be an effort wasted, not to mention the money spent. Ultimately, your gift would just be lying in some dark corner of the house. Hence, it is good to buy specific gifts for people only if you know what they like or choose a general functional gift item. For instance, candles and diyas are apt for gift options during Diwali, as are gift hampers with chocolates, sweets and savouries. Avoid buying sweetmeats as their shelf life is short. You can go for thing like USB drives in bulk if you are getting them at a good offer and then you can gift ahead to people who work or to students.

Handmade gifts have a better chance of being used than a store-bought one which may just stay unused in a shelf. Furthermore, handmade gifts are easy on the pocket too. Each handmade gift is weaved with a memory or story that occupies a special place in the hearts of the giver and receiver. In terms of choice, you can go for home décor gift items like paper lanterns, candle holders, festive gift pouches with trinkets or chocolates wrapped in them, paper wall décor, cash gifts in special handmade envelopes, decorative gift trays with dry fruits, assorted teas or spice mixes, homemade snacks in decorated mason jars, eco-friendly diyas with clay idols bundled together, and more.
