You can think outside the box a bit and get a really nice present for pretty cheap. I got so many expensive platters and things that I don’t use, I just have on display or in a closet. The things I use are the ‘original’ gifts. For instance, a friend of mine got me a havdalah set- candle, small matchbox, small silver tray. It was very thoughtful, inexpensive and I use it every week. We also got a nice silver napkin holder that’s on the table all week, as well as crystal salt and pepper shakers. A vase is also nice. Think outside the box a bit, and for goodness sakes don’t get a challah cover. I must have 10.
