Christmas exchanges are a long-standing tradition among family, friends, and acquaintances.
Here, the intention is to hold a small draw in which a person or people will be chosen at random to receive a gift from someone in a group of family or friends. Normally, price limits for the gifts in the Christmas exchange are established to regulate an average spending among all those involved.
The question arises when it’s someone we don’t know well, and we don’t know what to gift them. That’s why we’ve put together some gift ideas that you can give for the Christmas exchange you’ll be participating in:
1. If you know or find out that the person you have to give a gift to has a pet, you might consider a gift suitable for their pet, such as: a decorated food bowl, a hammock (if they have cats), a glowing collar, an exercise ball for hamsters, or a water fountain. There are countless options for pets at various price points.
Give the gift of comfort to your dog this Christmas with one of our perfect pet present ideas, including this cosy @charleychau bed. For more gifts for canines and felines alike, as selected by Alex Frith of @barkarama, visit townandcountrymag.co.uk/animals.

2. Have you noticed that your coworker likes to display photos of their friends and family in their office space? Gift them a unique magnetic board so they can showcase their collection of photographs.

3. A good coffee mug is never rejected. You can put together a package that includes a nice coffee and a mug for them to enjoy at any time.

7. If they are a fan of a particular sport, you might consider gifting them the jersey of their favorite team, but if it’s outside your budget, there are other options like a mug, cap, or something significant that references that sports team of their dreams.
