I like the idea to Pay For a Service. There’s a lot of things I wouldn’t pay for, like a house cleaner. But if it was a gift, I could have somebody clean my house without the guilt of wasting money.

Those are some good ideas! Here are some of mine:

*Membership to a zoo or museum, this way rather than paying $10 per person, you can go whenever you want, for how long/short time you want for free! Plus, it’s less clutter, you don’t have to clean it, and it won’t break!

*Art supplies- finger paints and paper and crayons for kids, yarn and sewing things, etc. Or a gift card.

*pay for a class- knitting, cake decorating, ballet, belly dancing, whatever.

*an appliance. My parents bought us a chest freezer for christmas one year. i don’t know what I’d do without it!
