About this audiobook

I Have to Buy a Gift and Suddenly I Don’t Know This Person is a practical guide to choosing presents without turning the occasion into an examination of your relationship, creativity, and bank balance.   The book explores familiar decisions that make gift buying harder than it needs to be, including time pressure, budgets, personal preferences, awkwardness and the fear of choosing badly.   You will learn how to ask better questions, choose useful options, avoid panic purchases, and give thoughtfully without overspending. Gift buying can be manageable, respectful and even enjoyable.
