Birthday Gag Gifts

When birthdays roll around and you have someone that is difficult to buy for what do you do?  You’re sure that he or she won’t appreciate another pair of socks.  The person may be a boss, a doctor or someone that you know, but not well enough to purchase a large extravagant gift for.  You mull over a few options; underwear is out of the question, socks aren’t right and you certainly don’t have the money for the Bentley or Harley.  Why not consider birthday gag gifts.
Even though we didn’t have the money to gift the Harley it is amazing just how many doctors, attorneys, executives, clients, friends etc. want to be the “biker dude/babe”, with all the tough machismo associated with the title?  A birthday gift for your biker pal should be easy because you know their hobby, It’ a personal gift, yet not too personal. (Nobody wants to know their attorney enough to know he wears tighty whiteys.)
So now that we have settled on a biker gift what should we buy; a jacket, chaps, pipes, tires, pistons?  Purchase of these items takes an intimate knowledge of the gift recipient and how do we find these things out without giving away the surprise?  Birthday gag gifts often become something that the person cherishes even more than the Harley or Bentley.  Okay, that’s a lie, but they do love them.  A good, on point, gag gift says; you know what they like, you took the time to find just the right item and it’ll usually bring a huge belly laugh.  It’s guaranteed that your boss, spouse or client will remember the day and the giver fondly every time they see it.
Often birthday gag gifts wind up in a prominent area of display and are shown to others at every opportunity.  These gifts are not only associated with a special birthday celebration but also with a favorite hobby and a favorite person.  It is amazing how these silly types of gifts become family heirlooms, since everyone in the family remembers how much “Dad”, “Uncle Howard”, or “Mom” loved to show it off or laughed every time someone asked about it.
A gag gift is one way to say, “I think you’re special and a lot of fun.”  Remember, nobody gives birthday gag gifts to a grouch.  A grouch gets socks, scented candles or mugs without any writing or pictures on them.  Only fun loving people get gag gifts so if you receive one, know someone has paid you a huge compliment.
If you really want to make a hit with your wild and crazy Harley riding accountant who has a dog, then get them a leather jacket for their pet.   But if you don’t know what size the dog is a great fall back is a crazy saying on a mug, a t-shirt or some biker products with crazy names.    No matter how much they’d like to do it, they typically don’t purchase the item for themselves, so that duty is left for you to take care of!

Birthday gag gifts are not only fun, they say a lot about both the person receiving the gift and the one giving it.  They show that you took time to find the right affordable item and that the recipient loves a good joke and has a great sense of humor.  The next time you want to get a birthday present for the man or woman that has everything or someone who you know; but you don’t really know.  The perfect fall back items are gag gifts and did you know they are also great for all other occasions.
