I'm a vegan, I wish my friends would get me these! I'm not selfish, I would love my gift to help others. But it's also cool to get new vegan products to try.
Nice tips!

I did not know about the bumblebee thing.
Never realized sticky tape was an issue at all. As an activist, I know what it's like to receive gifts that you can't morally accept. You are trapped between not offending your friend and not offending your values. Most of the time I side with people and friends over issues. The best gifts I get are ones that say "We understand". Taking the time out to consider who someone is and what they believe in before giving a gift is it's own gift.
It's not cheap, it's priceless.
Excellent article, Matt!
Great ideas! That would really show someone you put a lot of thought into their gift!
Very good tips friend, nicely done as always.
