Please do not ever buy a plunger as a gift. Or broom/dustpan. |
First aid is good but make your own. There’s so much crap you’ll never use in the purchased ones. Put some band aids, gauze, bandage wrap, Advil, neosporin, etc in a small case.
AAA is not great either. If you break down or get in an accident their tow trucks could be 2 hours. Police tow is 30 mins or less. |
the police don’t want to jump your dead battery or get the keys out of a locked car. There are also great AAA benefits like passport renewal, discounted travel, free passport photos 1x/year. Etc |
Electric kettle |
Knife sharpener |
Open an Etsy store selling good first aid kits |
Roll of stamps |
No. I hate receiving these. So annoying and hard to dispose of. |
A trash can for the car.
The good OXO garlic press with the little plastic thing that clears the unused garlic from the holes. A hand-crank radio/flashlight. Great for emergencies. Re-useable mesh produce bags. |
Japanese nail clipper |
Portable car battery charger. Eye massager goggles. My dd got me one and we all use it when our head hurts. |
Two quality pairs of scissors. (Sure, a good knife is also great, but will cost you 3x as much).
Good electric pencil sharpener (if they have kids; ours gets used daily for 2 elem. schoolers) |
