Buy a Gift for an Annoying Family Member

At Christmas time, is there an annoying family member you have to buy a present for? Well, this article will help you.

Steps

 * 1) Spend a little time with that family member. It sounds awkward, but if you talk with them, perhaps you can find out what they like. Ask if you could come over, or if they want to come over for tea or movies.
 * 2) * By chatting or looking around their house, you can find out what type of gift they'd like (like if your aunt has pictures of puppies all over the place, but doesn't have one, maybe that's what she'd want).
 * 3) * Find out any allergies or disabilities, so you won't buy your allergic uncle a cat. Plus, you only have to spend time with them this once.
 * 4) Hurry up to the store. Lots of stores carry different items, so explore a couple of shops around town or head to the mall and browse the stores there. If Uncle Max wants a pet, perhaps the pet store or a pet breeder is the place to go. If Aunt Melanie wants a gift card for her iPhone she can't live without, most stores carry iTunes cards.
 * 5) Once you've picked out the perfect gift, pay for it! If you are on a budget, the gift you pick out must be priced under your budget. You wouldn't want to give away an arm and a leg for this 100 dollar vase Cousin Sherm wanted for his fancy mansion. Pay for the gift at the store.
 * 6) Wrap the gift. If it is for Christmas, Easter, Valentine's Day, or even a birthday, there is wrapping paper for it. Of course, if you don't have any wrapping paper, it's smart to pick some up at the grocery store. Especially if the gift you bought was at the grocery store.
 * 7) Give away the gift. If this family member is really bad, you probably want to shove it in their face and walk away. But they won't appreciate your gift if you do that, even if it's something they've been wanting. Walk up to them, say, "I got you this gift, Merry Christmas!" or "Happy Birthday! Here, I bought you a present." Be polite and give them a great big smile!

Tips

 * If it's not Christmas, a birthday, or anything, and you just want them to shut up about how you haven't ever bought them a gift, at stores you can also get regular non-themed wrapping paper.

Warnings

 * Be polite, or else they won't want the gift!
