The question โdo you like receiving gifts?โ is just as rhetoric as asking โDo you like feeling loved?โ We mean who doesn’t like the excitement of receiving something new and fabulous? We guess when it comes to gifts and love, it is the only time we prefer to be at the โreceiving endโ! ๐
However, what about those other times when we are at the opposite ends, i.e., in the shoes of the giftee? If alone, we scratch heads, bug our friends for ideas, tag a poor soul to the shopping mall or in the end decide on an impersonal gift (no exception stories here please, those creative minds who churn out awesome gifts and put us to shame, you are considered alien by us!!!). When in a group, we try our best to either shift the entire burden to the most creative head in the group, or make sure we conjure up a nice excuse for being unable to volunteer to buy a gift (before anybody else does), just pay up our contribution and make a quick exit (muttering often, *phew! that was a close shave*).
Ya, ya we know what the smart minds are thinking, why not gift cash or vouchers instead? However, lets face it that we still find gifting cash impersonal and vouchers of a specific brand often seem to restrict choices. Well no longer now, for with Badhai.in now in our lives, we can not pool in money and gift vouchers but also be assured that the person we are gifting the vouchers has ample brands to choose from?
However, life wasn’t so easy in the past right? So what was that โone gift shopping experience that drove you crazy?โ – share your stories through your blogs with us and stand to win exciting prizes from Badhai, which shall make gifting (for yourself or your loved one) a fun and enjoyable experience for all those involved.
So what are you waiting for? Gift your blog a nice blog post and stand to win amazing gift vouchers as prizes from Badhai.
