What's the most valuable gift you've ever received? What was it? Do you still have it? Who gave it to you and what was the occasion? What was the worst gifts you've received? Do you think one should as what kind of a gift the other person likes before buying and giving it to her or him? Do you think it's a good idea to put the gift receipt in the bag so that the receiver can exchange or return the gift? Have you ever returned or exchanged a gift? Why?

The necklace that my mother gave me on my 15th birthday is probably the most valuable and favorite item that I have ever got. of course, it is not only because of the quality, but also because of its meaning. Actually, I always wear it around my neck in order not to lose it. It just shows my name, Nahed, in cursive letters. I did not get any bad gift because I do not care about it, I care only about the meaning and who is giving it to me. I think it' s a good idea to ask people what they like but in different way to not make them feel that we want to buy them gift. That' s make the gift more memorable. Also it' s not a good idea to put the gift receipt in the bag because it' s just a gift to make you remember who is give it to you. by the way I have never returned any gifts.

Gift giving truly is important to many people it is a way of showing caring,love or respect. It is a way of expressing yourself. The best gifts are the ones you've receive from your friends and family. My most valuable gift I received from my mother it was the most important and valuable family history roots heredity gifts it was Nicklaus,Ring and Bracelet it was on Christmas Day. It was my most wonderful day in my life, way is special my grandmother gave to my mother, my mom gave me the most valuable and favorite items in my culture and my family roots the gift that shows me how much love and trust from my mother to keep the most valuable items. I'm gone keep and give if I have a daughter I will tell her to keep in a good place and how important,mine and valuable to the family and I will tell her to give for her daughter to keep the family roots and a culture.

I have received so many gifts, and all were valuable to me. The most valuable gift was a car gifted by my parents on my 23rd birthday. I never thought about it. That was the best gift I got on my birthday. Still I have my birthday gift with me but it’s in India and I am in USA. I never received any worst gift in my whole life. Gifts are gift, it doesn’t matter how they are. The main thing is about person’s feelings and love for you. It express how person like you or caring for you. In my opinion there is no worst gift in the world. When we have to give gift to another person, we need to think first and buy it. It depends on the person nature what he or she like. Because every gifts are valuable. It’s not a good idea to put gift receipt with a gift, but it’s not bad too. You can attach gift receipt with a gift, so if person didn’t like or want he or she can exchange from the place. For an example I got sweater as a gift on my birthday with gift receipt. After I wear it was very big so because of gift receipt I am able to exchange from the place. I had never returned gift but one time I exchanged my gift. The gift was a sweater and it was very big. That is why I exchanged it.

The most valuable gift that I have ever received was a watch. It is a nice hand watch by one of the famous Swiss brand. It has a round clock face and a metal band. The band has a personalized engraving. My wife got this watch for me for our wedding day. I still have it and wear it on special occasions with my suit and tie.

The most valuable gift I've ever received was an engagement ring during the proposal from my fiancé Alex. It was the most amazing day in my life! I still have my ring and I love my husband, who gave me this ring and his heart. I have never received bad gifts. Also I love all gifts that I ever receive. Especially gifts, which I received from my family. My family and close friends always know what to present me.

The best gift I ever received was Bible. I still have it that gift. I received it from my best friend. When I came here from Ethiopia, I was received that Bible from my church friend. I never received a bad gift. I do not think the people give the bad gifts to others, because they wanted to be surprise them with a gift. Before I buy it, I think about what kinds of gift the person might be like. I try to buy their favorite things because I want to them enjoy the gift and be happy. I think I will be a good idea to have a gift receipt. Just in case the receiver want to exchange it for something, they like better. I never exchange or returned any gift somebody gave to me. Because that person when they gave to me they wanted me to have it. Therefore, that gift reminded me that person.

What is a gift? Gift is the best and valuable things that we offer for our best friend or we received from someone which is special for us. Every one received once a gift in their live time. People always receive gift from their best friend or family members such as Mother, Father, Brother or sister.

The most valuable gift I have ever received was a pair of gold earrings. My mother gave them to me at my Birthday still have it and I wear it every day. I have never received any bad gifts. I like all the gifts I have received and keep it dearly. I think it is not a good idea to ask people what they like. A gift must be a surprise. I think it is a good idea to put the gift receipt in the bag. At my son’s Birthday, my friend gave him a pair of jeans and was large for him. Luckily, my friend put the gift receipt in the bag and I exchanged it. Gifts bring joy and always remain as a memory.

In my opinion, I think that to give and receive gifts are always very nice. The gift is a sign of human attention that it gives. I always choose a long time what to give the man or woman, considering his or her tastes, interests, what he or she loves. Normally I do not ask that the person would like to receive as a gift. I wish that the gift was a surprise for him or her. It is always a surprise and a pleasure. The most valuable gift for me was the gift of a gold bracelet, which gave me my parents on my wedding day. I was very pleased, and I keep it and sometimes I take it for special celebrations. This is the very beautiful and elegant bracelet. The worst gift I did not have because I'm always happy to accept any gift as a sign of attention to me. In the country where I early lived is not accepted to lay down the checks in a box with a gift. And here in America all people do it and believe that this is a normal. A person can go and return or exchange if not approached the size. I do not know is good or not, but I think this is not quite right with respect to the person who gave you this gift. I have never changed and did not return gifts.

In my life there were many gifts.The most precious gift is given to man is life.The most expensive gift to me was a tpip to United States.This gift I received from my daughter.This gift has helped me to make a choice for most important thing in life.How we are together.Sometimes the best gift is fun.In October 2014, I was given a ticket to Elton John concert.I watched it in the large downtown hall of Sacramento.I believe that the gift is reflection of our relationship with person.I always think before I give a gift to a person.I consider his or her interest and tastes.Still people must never forget that the main gift is the love and respect to each other.The worst gift I ever received was on my thirteenth birthday when I found out that my good frend got very sick.Give gifts with a gift receipt is not a good idea.Together with a gift we give human emotions but if can be exchanged then all meaningless.In my country, it was not acceptable to give gifts with exchange receipt.In the United States, it is a different culture.Here a person gives a gift receipt, and it shows his or her respect to the receiver.

My favorite thing is receive gifts on my events such as birthdays , occasion specially when the gifts are from a dear person to me , gifts always do the job to make a person closer to you , always make a lover loves you more and more , my best gift I ever received was a scarf it’s a priceless gift but yet it was the most amazing thing I ever got from the dearest person on my heart , this scarf was from my girlfriend she gave me that scarf a day before I leave my country , she gave the scarf for me to always remember her smell , to always remember her when she used to wear it on , and I think it’s not good idea to put the gift receipt in the bag because it’s not polite for the person who is receiving the gift to know the price of it , the gift means more than money its always nice for the gift to be priceless

The most valuable gift i have ever received it was IPhone 3G in 2009 from my wife, she gifted on my first birthday after our engagement, i have never receive any worst gifts from anyone yet, I think it's not necessary to know about others what they like or dislike, It's more important that what do you like to give them because every gift have meaning about it self and i am quite sure about my self that when i am giving a gift to someone i do try my best to find something unique and meaning full, As per my opinion and experience i have never put the gift receipt in the bag because i never let anyone know that from where and how much i bought the gift, i have never returned or exchanged a gift and i always tried to keep it in my life as long as i can because every gift has their memories and good moments which you have spent with your loved ones and whenever you see the first gift it could bring happiness on your face or at least a smile on your lips that's why we should take care for the first gift. My advice "NEVER RETURN or EXCHANGE"

The most valuable gift that I have ever received was a necklace from my boyfriend. I never saw a necklace like this one. He give me it on Christmas. We were sitting on the car talking, when he give me the box I opened,and I saw a beautiful necklace made in the form of heart. Then I open the small hearth, in the hearth were two lovely pictures with blue lights on it .In one side of the hearth was my picture in another side of the hearth was his picture. I still have it but I don’t use it. In my life I never had the worst gift, I liked all of them. In my opinion I don’t think it is a good idea to ask the other person what kind of gift he or she prefer. It is a gift !The person who you going to give the gift should be surprised about it. Also in my country is not accepted to put receipt in the bag of your present. So I used to live with that and I don’t think it is a good idea. The first you saw the gift ,the first you show be thankful about it.

The most valuable gifts that I have received are money from my mom and dad when it comes to my birthday or Christmas gift. Since when I was a little child, I never ask for toy or clothing or other stuff that has to do with fun. I never received valuable gifts before like I say only money that are valuable for me the most cause money can buy you the stuff you wanted such as food, candy, toy and other useful item in the store. Today, money still in my wallet every time I need to buy food to eat I got that valuable gift in my wallet to help me get it and be happy with it. I was very happy and getting excited whenever I get my valuable gift from neither my mom nor my dad. Even if money can’t buy you happiness, at least money can buy you the item you always wanted the most and dream about it. Sometime money make people happy and sometime it doesn’t but for me I always excited and happy to see money and receive money and that is my valuable gift I have for the rest 10 year here in the united states.

The most valuable gift was necklace, my husband gave me on Valentine's Day was the most valuable gift t have ever received I have had this necklace for six years, and it's something I will never take off because it reminds me of that day. I don't really care what quality it is, I'm always wearing it because it shows how much I love him don’t think that any of the gifts I received are bad because gifts are suppose to make a person happy and gifts are nice to have .some gifts stay with you for a long time, but others might break or something happen to them. Asking people for what type of gifts they want is nice, I know some people who have this thing called gift list, and others who like gifts as surprises. My husband bought me a purse that I exchanged because I have almost the same one and he got me a perfume but it did not really suit me well so exchanged too. Leaving a receipt in the bag it's good for a close friend or family members so they can exchange it but at the same time I believe its bad for other people we do not really know them like co-worker. Gifts are giving to show people how much we care about them and how much we do love them.

The most valuable gift I have received were roses red. I conserving roses of course they are dry, I put them in a ziploc bag with the card. The se beautiful flowers my boyfriend on my last birthday sent to me it was a nice surprise for me. The worst gift I have received has been clothes. I think before I buy a gift, I have to know her o him wants, but it is better to buy a gift card and a receiver buy wherever her o him needs. In my opinion it is good idea to put the receipt in a gift bag because if the receiver doesn't like, her o him can return o exchange a gift. I never didn't returned o exchanged a gift, I didn't like it I keep it in my closet. I didn't back it, because never put the receipt in the bag.

I do not remember exactly what gifts were given to me before. Well, I remember how I mother-in-law gave a gift - knitted socks three years ago! This valuable gift because it was made by hand. I do not remember the worst gifts, I'm glad all the gifts. The best gift is not an expensive gift but a gift from the heart! Receive a gift with a receipt for a refund, it's a good idea. I know many people who like to change them. For example, I once did not return gifts. I was brought up, or I'm just too lazy to go to the store and return. May you receive more gifts and give families a smile on your gifts!

Gifts play an important role in consolidating the bond of love and developments of friendliness feeling. Marshal Salijnz the sociologist translated this meaning when he said “if friends exchange gifts, the gifts make friends”.

The most Valuable gift I have received is a diamond ring. I do still have that gift; my father gave it to me when I graduated. The worst gift I have ever received was a 5 dollars gift card from my dentist. It might be a good idea to ask what the gift receiver like, want, or even need. It’s a great idea to have a gift receipt with the gift. I have never exchanger or returned any gift before.

I have received lots of gifts from my friends and family member during my life. All of them are very valuable and precious for me, but the most valuable gifts that I have ever received was a beautiful doll which my father and mother gifted me on my 4th birthday and a car that my husband gifted my on my birthday I will never forget these gifts. Unfortunately I don’t have the doll with myself, but I still have the car. Actually I don’t receive any worst gift in my life, because gifts can’t be worst. I don’t care about its price and quality. I kept all the gifts that I received and all of them are very valuable to me. I think it is not a good idea to ask people that what kinds of gifts they like. When I give gift for my friends I always try to find a gift which make them happy and has value for them. I think it is not a good idea to put the receipt of the gift at the bag in my opinion it looks rude and it is not necessary to let them know the price of the gift. I have never return and exchange any gift, because it is a little tricky and sensitive to exchange or return gifts especially if the gift is from close friends who really think that they have choose the right thing for you.

In 2014, I have the received one of the most valuable gifts ever. It was a starfish. This gift might sound like an interesting gift but it was very valuable and important to me. I still have the gift and now it is always in my bedroom. My wife gave it to me, but at that time she was not my wife, but a very close friend. My wife went to the beach with my sisters and when they came back, she gave it to me. It was so awesome and I felt so special and loved. From all my friends and family, I have never received a bad gift. Yes, I believe that a person should know what kind of gift to give to their friend, but sometimes some people like surprises instead of knowing what someone might give them. I think it is a good idea to put the gift receipt in the bag because in some cases, the person you are giving a gift to, might not like it and they can buy something they like. I have returned a gift my friend gave to me. The gift was a nice shirt. I returned the gift because it was too small on me and I wanted to get a bigger size.
