List 2: Gift Ideas
=============

On a similar vein, it’s so handy to keep a list of gift ideas for your family and friends. When you spot something perfect in a shop, note it down to buy later or if your friend mentions that light-up Daft Punk coffee table they’ve always wanted, note that down too, make one and surprise them with it months later on their birthday - like we did for our friend Kenny. When you’re stuck for inspiration, see if they’ve got an Amazon wishlist or stalk their Pinterest boards and Facebook likes for ideas. This list will save the day when you’ve forgotten about an upcoming birthday and are desperately searching for things to Amazon Prime to your door for the next day. It also makes sure you give them things they really want rather than a gift basket of smelly things, which may just end up getting re-gifted back to you later down the line. It probably goes without saying that it’s a good idea to keep this list private so good options for storing this list would be a note-taking app like Evernote or a secret Pinterest board.
