Buying a gift for someone who seems to have everything is one of the hardest gifting challenges. Generic gifts won’t cut it. Here are 50 unique gift ideas for 2025 — plus the smartest way to find the perfect personalised gift for even the most difficult person to buy for.
Why “The Person Who Has Everything” Is So Hard to Buy For
