Aggravating Experience

Shopping for an impossible to buy for loved one can be an aggravating experience at best. When you start your shopping process, you are already aware that they haven’t asked for anything, haven’t really given you a firm grasp of what would light up their face, and haven’t even shown an interest in anything they don’t already have. There are two types of people that create impossible shopping missions. The first group consists of the people who already have everything. They usually have a good amount of money and thus whatever they might want or need becomes second nature for them to just pick up on their own. The second group that creates impossible shopping standards are those who claim they want and need nothing and have no overt interest in anything.

Shopping for impossible people doesn’t have to become a terribly stressful ordeal, even during the Holidays or birthday season. Rather, start with some basics that everyone loves. Go shopping for a myriad of restaurant gift certificates or go shopping for something unique and useful. People who have everything already do not need another nick-nack hanging around their house. They are more appreciative of time spent with those they love than an expensive shopping trip dedicated to find one more thing to put on their mantle and dust from time to time. Shopping for someone who has asked for nothing requires attention to detail, and an impulsive and visceral need to stay away from anything that may just clutter their life.
