What should I put on my wishlist?

A mix of prices. Add a few small things people can buy without thinking about it, a few in the middle, and one or two you would never buy yourself — that way anyone can find something at whatever they wanted to spend, and nobody has to ask you how much things cost.

Is it rude to send someone a wishlist?

It is the opposite. The person buying usually wants to get it right and is quietly stressed about guessing — a list takes that away. It is also how you avoid three people buying you the same thing.

Will I see what people have bought me?

No. On Gifthax, reservations are hidden from the person whose list it is — always. Everyone else sees an item is taken so it is not bought twice, and you still get the surprise.

Wishlist ideas: what to actually put on your list

The hardest part of being asked "what do you want?" is that nothing comes to mind on the spot, and then three weeks later you remember everything.

This is a list to steal from. Beauty, skincare, jewelry, bags — the things people add to their own lists most, at prices from a few dollars to a treat, all real and in stock in the US.

Save the ones you like to a free wishlist and send the link when someone asks. You will not see what anyone reserves, so nothing is spoiled.
