What gift should I get?

I always have a hard time figuring out what gifts to give to others. My husband is the best at giving gifts… me not so much. I love giving but I think I put too much pressure on myself to get the perfect gift because I want the person to actually use and enjoy the gift I purchase for them. Otherwise, it is a potential waste of time, money and space. I have found a solution to getting good gifts AND feeling good about the gift you are giving. By purchasing from the sites listed below, even if the person somehow hates the gift (some people are hard to please), some of the money spent goes to support a good cause or is an ethically or naturally made product. You can Gift give in good conscience knowing that!

Below are some sites where you can get great gifts for friends or family and also feel good about the purchase for a variety of other reasons which will lead to gift giving in good conscience.
