Clutter-Free Gift Guide

Thanksgiving is this week!  The time has come to think about your holiday gifting.  I implore you, PLEASE don't spend money on things your loved ones won't use — (gag gifts, I am looking disapprovingly at you!).

Here are some clutter-free gift suggestions that can be enjoyed, used, and consumed!

MONEY or GIFT CARDS:
Just let people buy what they want! That way there is NO waste or clutter. Every year my mother-in-law sends me a generous check and I so enjoy it! I treat myself to exactly what I crave, usually some designer cosmetics or fragrant bath bombs!

Remember, gift cards are great but ONLY if you KNOW, without a doubt, that the recipient would actually shop at that store or purchase from that website. 
 
SUBSCRIPTIONS/MEMBERSHIPS:

• For Kids = Toy subscription services like Toy Library.

• Subscription kits like Little Passports, Stem Lab, and KidStir. Remember, these are only clutter-free IF the kids use the kit!

• For Anyone = Museum Passes.

• Local Theatre subscription.

• Amusement Park season tickets.

• We love Finders Seekers or EXIT “escape games” for a few hours of collaborative fun.

• Amazing Clubs has ALL kinds of “Gift of the Month” ideas.
   

CLASSES/EVENTS/EXPERIENCES:

• Cooking Classes.

• Comedy Show Tickets.

• Sports Events.

• Concerts.

• Art, Music, or Sport Lessons.

INDULGENT:

• Spa Day.

• Massage Coupon.

• Manicure/Pedicure.

• Facial.

• Make-Up Artist Lesson.

• Family Portrait Session.

PRACTICAL:

• Meal Kit subscriptions

• Local Car Wash coupons.

• Uber gift card.

• Book of bus passes.

• Gas/Petrol gift card.

• Grocery Store gift card.

• Laundry service.

• Babysitting voucher.

• Deep home clean.

• Car detailing.

Finally, I think my favorite suggestion is to donate to a meaningful CHARITY in someone's name. This creates NO clutter and can make both you and the person you are donating for feel great!
