What actually works
No registry, no etiquette, no list to buy from. Just this person, and whether you were paying attention. It is the only occasion where you can go completely personal, so it is also the one where something generic lands hardest.
The usual mistake
Buying something that could have been for anyone. If the gift would work for three other people you know, it is the wrong gift.
