For me, it's not knowing what to get. Usually if I want something, I just go and buy it. So yeah, when the birthday or Christmas comes around, I'm not exactly sure what I really want for those days. The only things I'd actually want would be pretty expensive, at least a hundred bucks most of the time.

I'm okay with getting gift cards. Better the money gets spent on something that will actually be used rather than just wasted on something that won't even be opened up out of it's packaging.
