Christmas gift for personal trainer??

How much and what?

She's 33, 6 kids, and vegan. I have no idea if she drinks coffee (probably not).

Re: Christmas gift for personal trainer??

I always buy mine a starbucks gift card because he meets me at 6 a.m. and shows up with his coffee.

A vegan person may enjoy a cool vegan cookbook.

I also say you can never go wrong with a spa gift card for a female though. Even is she hates spas, she can usually get a manicure or something.

Oh, I just thought of this, do you know of a specialty market that she shops at or a particular brand of workout clothing?

Hope that helps!

I'd do cash but I wanted something a little more personal and even with 6 kids she seems to be doing OK in the $$ dept. based on our conversations.

Hmmm maybe a g/c to Whole Foods or even the spa thing. Good ideas...keep them coming if anyone has anymore.

Gotcha! Something personal. I like the cookbook suggestion. What about personalized stationery? Something for the holidays - decoration or serving piece? The spa gift cert is nice but I wouldnt get one from Whole Foods - it's mostly a grocery store.

Those bracelets are very nice!
I was thinking Whole Foods because she's vegan...not for the spa. I wonder if she'd go to spa now that I think about unless she was sure they didn't use products tested on animals.

I agree about the spa - they may use products she wouldn't want to be used. If you are thinking of a gc for a grocery store, I dont see how it would be less personal then cash. Not that I wouldn't appreciate a gift card to stop & shop, I admit I would find it a little odd.

You can never go wrong with cash or a visa gift card.

Of get something you think she might not normal shop or buy herself. like really soft/cozy slippers and robe and bath soaps.

think about something you have seen her wear, carry, or mention in conversation. I used to be amazed at how much my clients listened to me and often bought me gifts based on that.
