What are some of the simplest, coolest gifts/surprises you've ever gotten?

I hope you don't mind me answering a different question, my INFP sister, but if it is from you...it doesn't matter.

As long as it's a gift from someone with good intentions, I consider it a cool gift. ^^

A handwritten letter with markers on plain white paper. I got it for my birthday 4 years ago from a friend. I still keep it near me to this day. It symbolizes a lot of stuff for me. I'll probably keep it around until the day I exit this earth.

Yes, something permanent and something you did out of your own free will not out of compulsion or under social norms, etc.

a good bone.

(... bacula tend to be in the more affordable and simple range. although nature's gift card is also cool.)

Marvel MIGHTY MUGGS Wolverine

Younger brother got it for me as a gift with one of his first pay checks.

Anybody in particular you shopping for? A good gift from a girlfriend would be considerably different from a good gift from a mother, sister, or close friend.

That would be awesome

Other than that, books, but they'd have to be very carefully selected. But there's nothing like getting that toy you always wanted as a kid when you're an adult

Personally, anything truly from the heart...or a rasberry pi. Those little things intrigue me.

can't go wrong with books.

for me the best gift I was ever given was by an ENFP, she made me a basket filled with baked goodies (cookies, cake, muffins, scones)

there was a huge variety and I could see how she spent so much time on it... I was overwhelmed

to this day it was the greatest gift I had ever gotten... I felt all warm and fuzzy on my insides.

Okay well to make my long story short: I went to Germany as an exchange student in 2010 and I went with my host mother to her parents' house. I had never met them before. As we were leaving my host mother's father wanted to give me a small wall decoration (I don't know what it's called) that is a piece of wood with a metal plate on it that is shaped into an image (detonography I think it's called), that he had made at an earlier age. Anyway, my host mother said to her father that it would be to heavy for my plane trip back and so I didn't get it. This is something I will never forget, even though I don't have the decoration, because I have never experienced generosity like that from a stranger.

I enjoy receiving things that I can find useful or engaging and things that relate to my interests and that show the person knows me well. The first is more along the lines of things like pieces of technology, books, CDs, etc, while the second can include almost anything, from trinkets to things I have a use for. It's nice to know someone appreciates you for some of the things you enjoy and will give you a gift related to them.
