You're worried about placing all your bets on a single product as a gift, or you're simply running out of time to find the perfect gift. We get it - it's tempting to grab any old gift set or bundle and call it a day.
However, it's important to take a more careful look. Many gift sets seem like they were arranged as carelessly as the way you stalked down the aisle frantically eyeing them.
A good gift set isn't necessarily defined by the quantity of items in it (though it's certainly satisfying to save by getting a value pack), but rather by its careful, thoughtful curation. You want to look at each item in the set, then the set as a whole and say, "Yup, this all makes sense."
