Out of everyone in the family, your brother Tommy is the easiest to shop for. That’s because he’ll pretty much take anything. Tom is an eternal bachelor, living the bachelor lifestyle. This means he lives with beanbags and a mattress on the floor and a fridge full of beer. Fittingly, Tommy's only luxuries are a giant flatscreen TV and an Xbox. So most anything he takes back to his apartment he sees as an upgrade.

It can be a pain shopping for some people. They act coy and drop subtle hints, leaving you to run all over town, looking for something you may not even find. Not your dad, though. He’s a direct and straight to the point kinda guy. He’s concise about what he wants, how much it costs and where you can find it. It’s never a chore when it comes to Dad.

As enjoyable as the holidays are, they can also get a bit dreary at times. That’s why it’s always nice to see your Aunt Dale. She’s a walking ray of sunshine. There are fewer people in the world sweeter than her. And she’s pretty easy to shop for as well. Anything cute warms her heart. You do feel a little silly strolling down aisles of knick knacks and stuffed animals, though.

Your Grandma Emily is much like other grandmas. She’s warm and loving and makes great cookies. And like a good grandmother, she worries about you. Buying gifts for her isn’t difficult, it’s mostly the looks of concern when she opens them. “My goodness,” she frets, “I hope you didn’t pay too much for this,” as she once again reminds you about living through the Depression.

Mom is the woman you look up to most. She’s quirky sometimes. Sappy others. But she’s always there for you and will do anything to make sure you’re happy; even if that includes pretending to like your present, when you know the next day she’ll be standing in the gift return line at the mall. Oh well.

Now Uncle Lewis is definitely the most interesting guy in your family. He’s traveled the globe and experienced so many different things the world has to offer. Appropriately, his wish list is a bit exotic. So good luck finding a traditional Peruvian chullo or a Mongolian yak bridle at the mall.

Grandpa Frank’s lived a long life, as he likes to tell you. And according to him, our modern world just can’t live up to the good ol’ days. Try as you might, anything you buy him will be, in his opinion, overpriced or poorly made. “Would you look at this,” he’ll complain, “does no one take pride in quality anymore?” Just keep telling yourself the holidays come once a year.

In every family there’s at least one relative that’s a bit of an outsider. In yours that would be Cousin Chad. Now Chad’s not a bad guy, just a bit weird. Whether he’s talking about his Canadian girlfriend that no one’s ever met or asking if you’d like to read his Wonder Woman/Catwoman fan fiction, it can all get a little awkward. Awkward like some of the things on his wish list. Where does one even buy a life sized anime body pillow, anyway?


B +2 Points
Whereas your brother Tommy is basically one step up from a vagrant, your sister Melinda is on the complete opposite of the spectrum. Melinda’s all about keeping up appearances. She lives in a big house. Drives an expensive car. Wears only designer clothing. She is a person accustomed to the best, and demands nothing less. Not such good news for your wallet.

You love your little niece, Tabitha. You really do. But she must be the most spoiled child to walk the face of the Earth. She’s definitely your sister’s daughter. Tabitha knows what she wants and she wants lots of it, and will kick and scream if she doesn’t get it.
