Gifts for Someone Who Has Everything: 25 Ideas That Still Surprise
Everyone has one person like this. They buy what they want when they want it, their home is already full, and they genuinely mean it when they say “don’t get me anything.”
The solution is not a more expensive object. It is one of four things: something they will use up, something better than what they have, something only you could give, or time.

Things They Will Use Up
Consumables are the safest gift for a full home: enjoyed, then gone.
1.
Specialty coffee: beans from a small roaster, with a roast date on the bag.
A coupon book: ”one dinner cooked by me,” “one Saturday of help moving furniture.” Time is the one thing they cannot buy.
24.
A donation in their name: to a cause they care about, with a card explaining why you chose it.
25.
Their wishlist: if they have one, even a small item from it is better than a big guess.
What to Avoid
Decorative objects, “gadgets for the person who has everything” (they do not want them either), and anything that needs storage space. For the full list of gifts that tend to be quietly re-gifted, see gifts nobody wants.
The Real Secret
People who “have everything” still have things they would like but never buy for themselves. They just do not say it out loud. Ask them to keep a WishlyBox wishlist, even a short one, and you will never have to guess again. For more ideas by person, see our gift guides and the Christmas gift guide.
