[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly don't know what to make of, or how to reciprocate to this one extended family member. They are extremely wealthy, don't work and are always travelling private or business/ first to exotic destinations.
Every so often, they'll come back from one of their lavish trips with an extremely cheap gift such as a 2 oz jar of honey (for comparison, the free sample size you get at hotels is 1 oz), a shot glass, a 3 oz bar of chocolate, a cheap pen ...
This person does not spare any expense on themselves at all.

I don't make nearly as much as them but I always get proper gifts and put a lot of thought into them. I know I should be thankful for any gift and I certainly am not expecting any lavish gift . I am not sure what to make of this and I feel insulted.

OP, you always get proper gifts for them *when you travel*?  Or just generally?  Do you travel internationally and know what it is like to move in and out of airport security and customs?

They are giving you thing they bought at the airport.  When traveling, it sucks to tote around a bunch of gifts, and sometimes there are customs issues.  [/quote]
