Help! Which gift would you rather receive?
Permalink Closed


I bought flannel PJs and a candle from the Gap for my future SIL for Christmas. When I was out and about shopping I came across a leather Coach wristlet that I thought was really cute and thought she might like. I'm debating on taking back the PJs and candle and getting the wristlet. Cost-wise they are comparable.
They are going to close on their first house a few days after Christmas, so I know that they are saving for all of their new expenses. I don't think she would go out and buy either of the gifts for herself right now.

What would you enjoy more? Thanks!

I'd like the pj's and candle better but I'm not a wristlet type of girl. I don't go anywhere without a full size bag.

I also agree with the PJ's/candle gift as I'm not a big fan of wristlets myself.

Wristlet, but mostly because I own too much loungewear and my BF would be allergic to the candle.

wristlet - it's more fun than pjs and a candle

I personally would love to receive either gift, but if I had to choose it would be the PJ's and candle.

I guess I'd go with the wristlet...it seems a bit more decadent somehow...and I suppose she'd be less inclined to spend money on herself buying that.

Definitely a wristlet. Fun to receive and use.

I'd go with the wristlet but only b/c I have tons of candles and I don't really lounge around in pj's.

PJs and candle.  The wristlet is more decadent, but I know I would get more use out of PJs and a candle.  If she's a big coach fan then I guess I'd get her the wristlet, but if she's not really a label kinda girl, I'd go the pj route.

I would rather receive PJs and candle, but is she more of a homebody or more of a "night on the town" type of lady?

Thanks for your input girls! I think I'm going to stick with the PJs and candle. I personally love my wristlet that I have and get much use out of it, but I'm just not sure how much she would love it. Plus, my coach store is out of the color I would have chosen and it would have to be shipped which may or may not get here in time for our Christmas get-together.

You know, I'm not a fan of wristlets either, but I did receive a Coach wristlet just last Christmas as a gift.  I was surprised at how useful it ended up being.  It was especially great when I was on vacation because I could keep minimal cash, my ID, and a small tube of lip gloss in it, and have it conveniently on my wrist.  Plus, I ended up using it in my bag for awhile too.  So, in the end I loved getting that gift and think it's aa little more original than pjs and a candle.

Wristlet!  I use mine all the time;  I keep a couple cc's, an id and some cash and it easily goes to and from my work bag to my gym bag, or I carry it alone when I'm running a quick errand.  I've given them as gifts before and they've been well-received :)
