174 million Americans shopped over Thanksgiving weekend, spending an average of $335 with 75% of that ($251) going toward gifts (National Retail Federation). Don’t want yours to end up in the return or regift pile? Read on to learn how to gift like the experts.
QuickZippers are discerning shoppers and exceptional gifters. So we asked, and they told us their secrets: It starts with really knowing and understanding the person you are giving to. And remember, there is no right answer…..

#1. Listen
Listen all year long to get a sense of what they would really love, what they wish for, and what they need. Then get in the habit of keeping notes somewhere (it really helps!)
#2. Ask if you are unsure
We all want to get something they really want. Rather than getting it wrong, or making anything awkward, our experts recommend that you ask. That simple? Well, no. Of course, you may not want to lose the element of surprise, so we suggest you follow a more sneaky line of questioning, ask someone else, or send up some trial balloons, like:

#3. Think about what might they need
I am not necessarily a proponent of the fully utilitarian gift, but I do believe in making sure your gift will not end up in the trash within the week. It usually feels a little uninspired for me to give a Target card or cash, but many of us need some basics, and money is tight for lots of people! So there is nothing wrong with it – and gift cards are actually the most requested gift this year. (NRF). You can also take the opportunity to decide what they might want – within reason – if you see a product that you know will make someone’s life easier – go for it!
#4 – Unforgettable, different and never-before seen (and I throw into this category something they wouldn’t buy for themselves)
I know – this one is a lot of pressure. Breathe… it’s lower priority than the tips above, it’s not everyone, and it’s not all the time. If you have found a great product that you love but know they haven’t seen; go for it! (QuickZip Sheets fall into this category for many people). Think of something you saw on a trip or that caught your eye in a store. How about a new game? We started playing Cards Against Humanity (Warning: Rated R) and Dutch Blitz (sort of war-solitaire combo) – both are a riot. How about some fun spices or ingredients and a recipe?

#5 – Think about what you would like – READ INSTRUCTIONS FIRST!
This final tip is to be used with a large grain of salt. Gifts are about them (the receiver), not about you (the giver)! However, within reason, assuming you are buying for someone like yourself in some way, think about if you would want it and be excited to receive it.
Gifts shouldn’t break your bank or cause you undue stress – they just send a representation of your love and respect for someone. Go forth and shop!
[[HINT: here are a few gifts QuickZippers want to receive, to get your juices flowing: Hunter boots, things to decorate the newly finished basement, a class in self development, Parker Clay purse, gift of time with the kids, gift card to my favorite store, headphones, a scarf, gourmet chocolate, workout clothes, cashmere and QuickZip Sheets! ]]
We reinvented the fitted sheet with a two-piece design that is quick to change, easy to fold, and won't pop off. Each Fitted Sheet includes a base and a zip sheet. Extra interchangeable 'add-on' zip sheets are available separately in a variety of colors & fabrics.
Each Fitted Sheet includes two parts: 1x Fitted Sheet Base + 1x Fitted Zip Sheet (split sizes include 2x)
Discover the easiest, most comfortable fitted sheet you’ll ever own. The QuickZip Fitted Sheet zips on and off in seconds, ending the struggle of lifting heavy mattresses or wrestling with stubborn corners. Goes on ONCE like a standard fitted sheet, and then changing sheets is refreshingly simple—just zip off the top and zip on a fresh one.
Our secure base features extra-wide elastic underneath for a snug, stay-put fit that won’t pop off, even on adjustable beds. It’s thoughtfully engineered for every kind of sleeper and every kind of bed, ensuring a smooth, tailored look and feel that lasts.
Available in both common and hard-to-find sizes, QuickZip comes in a variety of premium fabrics and colors to suit your style—whether you prefer crisp percale, luxe sateen, breezy ComfortCore or cozy flannel. And when it’s time to switch things up, simply zip on a new Zip Sheet - all colors and fabric are interchangeable within the size (sold separately). One base, endless comfort and possibilities—because great sleep starts with smarter design.
