Birthday gifts for friends

Frequently asked questions about birthday gifts for friends

What do I give a friend without falling back on the obvious?

Start from something specific between you: a running joke, a trip, something they always say. A gift that refers to a shared moment beats a more expensive generic one every time.

I have several birthdays in the same month. How do I handle it?

Buy them together. One shipping cost, free from 30 euros, and two or three gifts waiting in a drawer instead of three separate last-minute panics.

How much should I spend?

Between 10 and 25 euros covers almost every friend’s birthday comfortably. Above that you are usually buying reassurance for yourself rather than pleasure for them.

What if I am short of time?

We hand the parcel to the courier within a maximum of 48 working hours and mainland Spain takes 1 to 2 working days, so ordering three working days ahead is usually enough.

How long does delivery take?

We hand the parcel to the courier within a maximum of 48 working hours from the moment your payment is confirmed. Delivery then takes 1 to 2 working days in mainland Spain and 4 to 10 in the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla. Shipping costs 4.95 euros in mainland Spain and 6.95 euros to the islands, Ceuta and Melilla, and it is free from 30 euros. We currently ship within Spain only, so if you need us to send an order somewhere else, write to [email protected] and we will tell you what we can do.

What if I get it wrong?

You have 14 calendar days from receiving the order to change your mind, no explanation needed. Just email [email protected] and we will walk you through the return.

Birthday gifts for friends

The birthday of a good friend is the gift you should find easiest and somehow never do. You know them too well to buy something generic and not quite well enough to be certain about the specific thing. This section gathers the birthday gifts for friends that solve exactly that: objects with personality, a bit of humour and a real use, in the price range where a friend’s birthday actually lives.

What works and what does not

What works is something they would enjoy but would never buy for themselves, which is almost always small, slightly frivolous and pleasant rather than practical. What does not work is the safe, forgettable object: a friend notices the difference between a gift chosen for them and a gift chosen quickly. Mugs with a phrase, notebooks, pouches and small decorative pieces do most of the heavy lifting here.

Several birthdays at once

If your calendar piles them up, buy them together. One parcel, one shipping cost, free from 30 euros, and a small reserve in a drawer for the birthday you will inevitably remember the night before.
