do you usually ask people what they want for Christmas?

or just buy something? I usually just buy something, my MIL always asks me specifically what I want. Its def. easier to shop when you know what you are looking for but I never do that, Im usually wandering around the mall aimlessly not knowing what to get.

I ask everyone I get a gift for in my family what kinds of things they would like. Makes it easier for me.

I ask the parents what the kids want.
It's just easier b/c I don't know every single toy they own, plus I am spending the money anyway and I want it to be something the child really wanted and will enjoy.

For the adults close to me we usually get what we want to get them. But we know what they have/don't have, what they are interested in, etc. So it is a lot easier to shop for them.

I usually ask what they want to get an idea but many time when I am out I may see something that they doidnt say and get it for them too.

I usually ask my family what they need and want, just to get an idea. I don't always get what they tell me.

no for adults but yes for the kids. i love watching my niece and nephews open their presents and i want to make sure they love what they got! they still believe in santa so i tell them to make up their Christmas lists and give them to me to mail. then i just use them to go shopping! Chat Icon

Always, I prefer to get someone something they want rather than guess and have them return it. I just find it to be an inconvenience on that person.

Yes, not only is it easier to shop, but at least I can get them something that they will like.

I always ask unless I know for sure there is something that they really want because they've mentioned it in passing.
