We all have a lackluster gift (or two) hanging out in the back of our closet. While we don’t want to ditch them, we know we’re never going to wear that itchy sweater or use that overpowering body lotion. So how can you break the cycle of unwanted gifts? The key is to give Amazon gifts so loved, they’ll never be stuffed away in storage.
When you’re buying for someone else, the reviews are really what guarantee a good present: Buyers will straight-up tell you when something doesn’t look or work like it should — and they’re just as likely to let you know when something is so brilliant, they wish they’d known about it sooner.
