The holidays mark a time of year to exchange well wishes and gifts with friends and family. Sometimes, however, you may find yourself purchasing gifts for people you don't like, either to be polite or out of professional obligation. When buying a gift for a woman you dislike, choose from a range of inexpensive gift ideas to help you make a selection quickly and avoid begrudging the process. Present your gift using an adhesive gift bow instead of wrapping paper. - During the holidays, Christmas decor is plentiful. You can find a range of decor options in neutral styles that can be turned into a gift. To minimize your costs, shop at a discount store where you can find inexpensive items that can be used for years to come. Traditional items such as brass bells for a door or a Christmas tree snow globe ornament make perfectly acceptable gifts. Since these items are available in abundance, you can choose quickly without worrying about color, design or size.
- Store-bought food is another simple gift option for Christmas. If you don't like someone, you probably won't want to spend hours baking holiday treats for her. Instead, grab a fruitcake from the seasonal section of your grocery store or buy a bag of inexpensive Christmas cookies. If you are buying items for a group of women, choose a cluster of plastic holiday containers filled with candy found at a discount store or drug store.
- Stationery is an appropriate choice for a formal Christmas gift, particularly for a professional colleague who is not a favorite of yours. Select a basic Christmas design, or choose something plain and generic on which the recipient can write thank-you notes or shopping lists. Inexpensive stationery can be found at dollar stores and other discount outlets.
Calendars are another good option, as the gift is impersonal and does not require much thought. Look for desk calendars that are on sale, or choose a simple pocket date book with a neutral design.
