When someone is moving out of state, it’s often the custom to get them a gift before they leave.
In fact, I would say that you are a very nice person to even consider this idea.
A gift is a really good way to show the departing person what they meant to you and how they have impacted your life.
It’s always important to be positive when someone is moving…
… and this should reflect in the gift you want to buy.
Remember there is already a lot of stress involved when moving somewhere new and you don’t want to add to the stress by making more meaningless mess for them.
It’s a good idea to look for a gift that is unique, something positive and useful if possible.
This can make a real positive contribution. Trying to find that gift can be very time consuming and stressful.
Depending on who it is, you might end up running out of ideas as the last thing you want to do is give them their 42nd bottle of wine or 27th welcome mat.
