Right, @curtismariah? A musician’s version of candy! But I think the best thing is really about who you are buying for. Do they want something specific?
Can you imagine how much decision fatigue it could save you, though? ‘Just buy me a gift card!’ can be quite a relief on both sides!
Exactly! But isn’t it also kind of a cop-out? A part of me feels like buying a thoughtful gift should come with searching.
You might have a point there, @suttonbrian. It’s always nice to put effort into a gift, especially for fellow musicians. But sometimes convenience wins!
Reflecting on it, I think it’s about balance. Gift cards are great as a backup plan—just in case you can’t pin down what someone wants!
