My husband and I come from large families. He has 8 siblings, while I have 5. They also have their own families, including kids, and when we add our extended families and friends, the Christmas season is a nightmare. It is not just about the budget for gifts, but also choosing a different gift for everyone.
A few years back we decided to get universal Christmas gifts for everyone, and we have never looked back. We simply choose personalized Christmas gifts, wrap them, and send them out. All we do is figure out how many men, women, and kids are on our list. We tend to classify kids according to their age, so we get age-appropriate gifts.
After that, we go for items in bulk sale so that we can get whatever we need at a discount. For example, for the men, you can get them these trifold leather wallets. They are made of full-grain distressed leather, and you’ll make a saving by buying them in bulk. You can also choose to get blank or you can engrave them if you’re looking for customized universal Christmas gifts.
You can also get these blank leather keychains. They are affordable Christmas gifts that you can give to everyone, including your family, friends, and coworkers. Getting them in bulk means no one gets left out, especially if you realize you forgot to get gifts for some of your loved ones.
Personalized wooden pens are also good universal gifts. No one can have too many pens, and if you can personalize these, it doesn’t matter if you chose them with one person in mind or if you bought them for 20 people. Everyone who receives it will feel special and it won’t matter if all your coworkers or family members receive the same gift.
