With time comes age and with age comes an accumulation of things. By the time your 40th and 50th birthday rolls around, most people already have acquired what it is they want most in life. After all, one of the best things about being an adult is buying what you want when you want it and not having to wait around for special occasions to get it. So what do you buy someone who already has everything? In this post, I will share 5 unique gifts for people who have everything. Whether your loved one is into travel, wine or unique experiences, we have something they will love.
It can be tempting to just purchase a gift card when you’re out of birthday ideas. But honestly, thinking outside the box and coming up with unique ideas doesn’t have to be hard.
Instead of just grabbing the first thing that comes to mind, create a list of personality traits and characteristics of the person you are shopping for.
What do they love to do? What are their hobbies, likes, and interests?
When you take the time to get to the bottom of who they are, you’ll be much better at selecting gifts they’ll love.
So next time you’re feeling stumped about what gift to give, take some time to think about the person you are shopping for and let that guide your decision.
A course or buy them Masterclass
If you’re on the lookout for unique birthday gifts that will really make a lasting impression, then turn your attention to gifts that are all about personal growth.
Why? Because there’s nothing more important than investing in ourselves and our own happiness. And what better way to do that than by learning something new that we’re passionate about?
Whether it’s a cooking course for the foodie in your life, a business masterclass for the go-getter, or a mental health workshop for the self-care junkie, there are so many amazing options out there.
So go ahead and treat your loved ones (and yourself!) to a unique birthday gift that will keep on giving long after the wrapping paper has been thrown away!
Airbnb Gift card
When looking for unique birthday gifts for the special people in your life, you can’t go wrong with an AirBnB gift card. This will allow them to pick a place they really want to visit and travel without the cost.
I recommend always looking at the rates for AirBnBs you’ll know they’ll love and then purchasing a gift card slightly above cost to cover the entire purchase.
Not only will this be a unique and memorable gift, but it gives them control over the experience they wish to have.
A day trip to their favorite city (if it’s within a 2 hr plane ride)
I saw one of my blog buddies do this with her friend for her birthday. Her friend loved Disney and she couldn’t afford to leave her family for a weekend or a few days so she surprised her friend with a day trip to Disney. They left on a flight that morning spent the day at Disney (using a fast pass of course) and came back that night. I say that’s great but you don’t have to do Disney. Maybe your friend loves Charleston (my hometown) you all can go there for an early dinner and come right back. It’s adventurous and you can still have fun without spending on a hotel trip or even a rental car.
A chef
Okay, this next one is a hit for me! A personal chef is one of the best unique birthday gifts you could give! Most adults have busy lives. We work, we have families and we always need to eat when we come home. Giving the gift of a much-needed break from cooking is wonderful!
Purchase an all-inclusive home chef package and allow them to enjoy delicious food in the comfort of their home. Not only will they get to enjoy amazing food, but they also won’t have to lift a finger in the kitchen! It’s the perfect way to show how much you care.
Wine Tasting
Experiences like this are perfect for those who already seem to have everything. They provide a much-needed break from everyday life and offer a chance to relax and enjoy some of the finer things in life. And what could be finer than sampling some of the best wines the world has to offer?
Whether your birthday recipient is a connoisseur or a novice, they’re sure to appreciate this unique and thoughtful gift. So raise a glass to their health and happiness!
