Most people will appreciate your thoughtfulness and understand the situation.
Gift categories
Assign categories such as “books,” “food” or “candles” and look for affordable options within those categories for everyone on your list.
Delegate shopping
If possible, delegate some gift shopping to a family member or friend to divide the workload.
Set a time limit
Allocate a specific amount of time for gift shopping. Knowing that you have a deadline can help you stay focused.
