Gifts to avoid in certain situations

G ift giving should always aim to please. Unfortunately, some choices can provoke embarrassed reactions from the recipient. You can avoid making mistakes by choosing carefully.

Hygiene products Some people who receive shampoo, deo­ dorant or other personal hygiene products may feel hurt or insulted. Even if they don’t, they might get the impression that you think their personal hygiene has room for

improvement. You’remuch better off giving this type of gift to people who have specifically asked for them. Alcohol If you want to offer alco­ holic products, make sure the person isn’t pregnant, a recovering alcoholic, on medication or part of a reli­ gion that prohibits alcohol. You’re not sure if the inten­ ded recipient is a teetotaler? Choose another gift that doesn’t leave any chances for embarrassment. Treats It goes without saying that you should avoid giving chocolates, candies or other sugary treats to peo­ ple who wear braces, are on a diet or who have diabetes. Items for smokers These days, the harmful effects of tobacco are well known, so it’s a good bet that the person you’re thinking of giving smo­ king-related products to is trying to cut down or stop all together. Better go to plan B!
