Do you shop for gifts to friends?

Many people do not shop for gifts that many people give to the friends. But few of them opt for these small gifts to be given to the friends. Shopping for gifts have been turned down these days with the advent of online albums and other forms of online greetings. Even the period of recession have forced them to stop buying gifts that would cost them an extra penny in the due course. However shopping gifts is very exciting thing to do.

for me an online card or a shopped gift could never be a susbstitute to something that is my own creation for my friend.... I love making gifts for them... I guess that truly indicates the inner feelings... i make cards for my friends...with my colour kits and thoughts... I design pots for them and make T shirts with quotations with them,, I make a photo frame for my friend with his and mine photo entangled in it... P.S. this is my personal view and i m not at all wanting to offend anybody who purchases gifts for their friends... i do this coz i like this... its simple!!

Not much right now. I seldom buy anything for my friends unless it's their birthdays or something similar. Things are expensive and I don't want them to have the pressure of giving me gifts back!

sure i do whenever there's a special occasion coming up, and have the money to buy presents why not. but sometimes money is just not enough. like last christmas, not everyone i know had received something from me.. not even a small gift. But I know gifts don't always have to be something touchable, or something that you buy in stores. I'll just make it up to them by doing favors and being there to listen when they need someone to talk to. Awww...
