Why do people keep asking you to pick your own presents?

Because every present they've bought him since the age of three
has been greeted with a smug smile and a sarcastic comment along the lines of "Why ...thankyou how DID you know this is what I've always wanted?"

But if you know someone well
you know what they like, and you can figure out what present they would like.

Having said that, we've all had some absolute shockers when it comes to present buying, I'm sure.

SOme people are near impossible, no matter how well you know them.
I was stumped for my Step-mum so called my Dad and even he was having trouble thinking what to get her. People with money, and few hobbies or frivolous interests are the worst.

This is true.
It's also the reason my step mum has had a decent bottle of wine 2 years running, but I'd rather spend less and get something personal.
