What's Your Favorite Thing To Give As A Birthday Present?

Share your wisdom, gift-givers of the world.

It can happen to the best of us. You're just living your life, busy with work and responsibilities and trying to get eight hours of sleep a night, and then it hits you — you haven't gotten your friend anything for their birthday.

Or maybe you DID remember their special day was coming up, but cannot for the life of you think of anything creative or super personal to get them.

Thankfully, you probably have some old standbys that you have found make no-fail gifts. So tell us, what is your go-to thing to give as a birthday gift?

Maybe it's something personal yet easy, like a fill-in-the-blank journal.

Perhaps it's a pretty (but affordable) piece of jewelry that'd work for lots of different people's styles.

Or maybe it's a cool subscription service they'd never treat themselves to.

Tell us about your favorite products to give as b-day gifts (other than just money or a gift card) and why in the comments below for a chance to be featured in a future BuzzFeed Community post!
