My experience is the brands like Revlon etc is available dime a dozen and people have little value. It is not the same India as it was 2 years ago. Things are changing very fast in India.

I tried $250 motorola quad band phone this time and you can buy a little cheaper in India (same phone).

I find good chocolates sells very well as gifts. especiall swiss/european made.

Hey there leena,

Gifting is the same process...anywhere in the world...Canada or US.:D

BL has posted a link..which sums it all well.




Honey dew

But what i meant was in US i knew certain places where we can go and buy in bulk, but as im new here in Canada have not explored many places here yet.

HOpe u understood now.

I agree brands like Revlon etc is available in abundant all over.
Not everyone have a big budget of gifts like many have here.
Also sometimes such gifts can be taken for such common people who cannot even think of getting a gift from abroad.

Ofcourse for immediate family noone will go to a dollar store and collect gifts.
Well it depends on everyones choice and the number of times u take the gifts.

thanks

Leena

Leena,

Try some show piece item ( small one). Chocolates is very popular. There is a warehouse near birchmount and lawrence in east end of the city. They have very very good prices and european brands. (south of ellesmere and north of lawrence adjacent to mcgregor socks outlet.

Some winter clothes will be appreciated like jacket/ sweater pull over etc.

My relatives enjoyed a lot especially German & Swiss made.

I can't think of anything else.

You can buy perfumes from millenium 3000 store in toronto, Walmart bath gift packs look good too. Then we always can give Shampoos, moisturizers, body wash, soft slippers to wear at home for older parents/grandparents. For school going kids.. colorful water bottles, lunch boxes or unique school supplies are always a delight. You dont have to spend a lot but uniquesness should be the key.
