Gifts for someone who has everything
Updated · Prices and stock from UK shops, checked daily
When someone has everything, they don’t need another thing. They need a better version of something they use, something that gets used up, or something with their name on it.
These ideas come from UK shops and update daily.

Upgrade the everyday
A really good umbrella, a cashmere scarf, a leather wallet. The thing they use every day, only nicer than they’d buy for themselves.
Treats that get used up
A hamper, good coffee, a special bottle. Nothing to store and nothing to dust.
Personalised
An engraved hip flask, a wallet or notebook with their initials. It’s hard to already own something with your own name on it.
Secrid Matte Slim Wallet - Black & Blue - can be Embossed or Personalised
£70.00Pinder Brothers Captive Top Stainless Steel Hip Flask in Green Leather Pouch Set - 6oz - can be Engraved or Personalised
£35.00Something to do
A jigsaw, a paint-by-numbers, a good board game. Time well spent is the one thing nobody has enough of.
Questions people ask
- What do you buy a person who has everything?
- Upgrade something they use every day, give something that gets used up, or have it personalised.
- Are experiences better than things?
- For people with full cupboards, often yes. A meal out, tickets or a class makes a memory and needs no shelf.
- How do I find out what they’d like?
- Ask them to make a list, even of small things. Shared with the family, everyone sees what’s still free and nobody sees who’s buying it.
