When it comes to the perfect luxury gift, how do you choose? Would it be a simple matter of assessing the person’s interests and buying something applicable within your budget? For some, this is the case, but for most of us, it’s a dilemma that we would either mentally punish ourselves for getting wrong or feel jubilation over getting right.
Seems like a lot to hang on a luxury gift doesn’t it? However, the key word here is ‘luxury’. This isn’t just any old gift because we’ve been invited to a dinner party or because its great aunt Silvie’s birthday and we feel obliged. A luxury gift is usually chosen so that you can express the value that person has to you. This is why it’s important to get it right, along with the fact that if you are going to pay out for a gift of this caliber you want to make sure they enjoy it.

Do you remember the days before supermarkets were invented?
Those were the days when the owner of the business was pleased to see you.
Instead of cold impersonal shelves full of merchandise, the shop owner would often greet you personally and welcome you into his shop.
He would find out exactly what you wanted, and then do his best to supply it.

“The customer is always right.”
“The customer is always right.”
“The customer is always right.”
When I first heard those lines, it sounded disturbing to me. At the age of 16, I got my first job experience working behind the cashier’s counter of a famous fast food joint (read: McDonald’s).
I remembered sometimes getting ridiculous requests, customers mentioning the wrong name of the meals when they actually wanted something else. And somehow, somehow… the customer was always right. And somehow, anyhow… it was my fault. It was my fault because I punched in the order that they didn’t want (hey I just take orders), there was salt in the fries and because McDonald’s doesn’t serve the same chicken as KFC’s.
