Summary: We all have them: those people in our family who are incredibly picky. It doesn’t matter how much time you spend looking for the perfect gift, they will never be happy with what you select. The shirt is the wrong color. The candle smells funny. Whatever you give them, it’s the wrong thing. So what do you do? One way to avoid stress when shopping for picky people is to give them a gift card. That way they can shop for themselves and find something that suits their taste.
