Some people’s entire love language is gift-giving. They know exactly what to buy for the people in their life and always elicit a great reaction from them. For others, gift-giving is a lot harder. Many of us struggle with knowing how much to spend and what to buy for the people in our lives. Keep reading to learn what to do when you don’t know how to buy gifts so you can still get something nice for your loved ones.
Start With a Budget
The first step to buying presents is deciding how much you want to spend. Everyone may have agreed on a set limit if this is for a group gift exchange at work or with extended family. Other times, you must set a budget yourself. You can set a limit for each gift or a total amount if you're buying multiple gifts. Setting a budget for a group of gifts gives you more flexibility, but it’s also easier to overspend that way. Know your spending habits and choose the proper budget for your financial situation. Write down your budget limit to hold yourself accountable.
Consider Their Interests
Once you know how much you can spend, start considering gift ideas. If you’re buying for someone you don’t know very well, like a distant cousin or co-worker, try to learn about their interests so you can get them a more personal gift. This can include light research like asking people closer to them or looking up their social media to see if they share anything about their interests. For example, they may post a lot of pictures of crafts they like to make. Take that information and start researching gift ideas that will impress crafters. Once you know what they love, buying them a present is much easier.
Always Include a Gift Receipt
No matter how much you try to learn about a person or tailor your gift to their interests, there’s always a chance that they won’t like or already have what you’ve given them. While this can feel defeating since you’ve spent time trying to pick out something nice, don’t let it affect you too deeply. Include a gift receipt with the gift so they can make the appropriate exchange and remind yourself that they’re still getting something they like, even if it’s in a more roundabout way.
Knowing what to do when you don’t know how to buy gifts is hard. While creating a budget and researching your intended recipient isn’t the only option, it is an excellent way to ensure you don’t overspend and have a high chance of buying them something they’ll like. If this person is a familiar figure in your life, keep notes about them and their likes, so you’re prepared for the holiday season. Eventually, you’ll be able to pick out gifts with greater ease.

United Nations Video: One Year since October 7 Attacks - UN Chief Message | United Nations
Video message by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, to mark one year since October 7 attacks.
---------------------------
Today marks one year since the horrific events of October 7th when Hamas launched a large-scale terror attack in Israel killing over 1,250 Israelis and foreign nationals, including children and women.
More than 250 people were abducted and taken to Gaza, including many women and children.
The October 7th attack scarred souls – and on this day we remember all those who were brutally killed and suffered unspeakable violence – including sexual violence – as they were simply living their lives.
This is a day for the global community to repeat in the loudest voice our utter condemnation of the abhorrent acts of Hamas, including the taking of hostages.
Over the course of the past year, I have met with the families of hostages…learned more about the lives, hopes and dreams of their loved ones … and shared in their anguish and pain.
I cannot imagine the torture they are forced to endure every day. I demand once again the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.
Until then, Hamas must allow the International Committee of the Red Cross to visit those hostages.
The 7th of October is naturally a day to focus on the events of that awful day. I express my solidarity with all the victims and their loved ones.
Since October 7th, a wave of shocking violence and bloodshed has erupted.
The war that has followed the terrible attacks of one year ago continues to shatter lives and inflict profound human suffering for Palestinians in Gaza, and now the people of Lebanon.
I have spoken out about this often and clearly.
It is time for the release of the hostages. Time to silence the guns. Time to stop the suffering that has engulfed the region. Time for peace, international law and justice.
The United Nations is fully committed to achieving those goals.
In the midst of so much bloodshed and division, we must hold on to hope.
Let us honour the memory of the victims, reunite families and end the suffering and violence in the whole Middle East.
And let us never stop working for a lasting solution to the conflict where Israel, Palestine and all other countries of the region can finally live in peace and dignity and with respect for one another.

United Nations Video: Middle East, Lebanon/Humanitarian, Lebanon & other topics - Daily Press Briefing | United Nations
Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General.
Highlights:
- Middle East
- Lebanon/Humanitarian
- Lebanon
- West Bank
- Occupied Palestinian Territory
- Haiti
- Deputy Secretary-General/Lesotho
- Security Council
- Democratic Republic of the Congo
- Food Price Index

Middle East
The Secretary-General is very concerned about the increasing toll on civilians that we are seeing across the immediate region.
Beirut residential areas were once again subjected to intense overnight Israeli airstrikes, apparently injuring rescue workers. Also, strikes continued unabated in other parts of Lebanon. The toll on civilians from this campaign is totally unacceptable.
All parties must do whatever they can to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure and ensure that civilians are never put in harm’s way.
The UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Jeannine Hennis-Plasschaert persists with her intensive political engagements, while the UN country team is working closely with the Lebanese Government to meet spiraling humanitarian needs.
Lebanon/humanitarian
Given the worsening humanitarian needs, Imran Riza the UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Lebanon, today announced an additional $2 million from the Lebanon Humanitarian Fund to address the deteriorating situation, bringing the total allocation to $12 million so far. This comes alongside a previous $10 million Central Emergency Response Fund allocated very recently.
Meanwhile on the health front, the World Health Organization announced today that the first flight with WHO medical supplies – enough to treat tens of thousands of injured people – has arrived in Beirut. More flights are planned for today and in the coming days.
This all comes as the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs remains concerned about the safety and well-being of civilians as the country experiences a surge in airstrikes and displacement orders. There were new orders given by the Israelis in the south, for areas above the Litani River and areas such as El-Buss - which hosts a Palestinian refugee camp – that forced families to flee from areas previously considered safer. Civilians on both sides of the Blue Line in Lebanon and in Israel, must be allowed to live in peace and tranquillity.
Also, the International Organization for Migration tell us that many of Lebanon's 177,000 migrants, including many female migrant domestic workers, have also been now forced to flee in search of safety but face limited shelter options.
Lebanon
UNIFIL says that within their area of operations, they still observe intense airstrikes and heavy clashes. Significant exchanges of fire are occurring in Sector West, particularly Marun ar Ras, Yaroun and Bint Jbeil and in Sector East, focusing on the Khiam, Kafer Kila and El Adeisse areas.
UNIFIL peacekeepers continue to remain in position despite the dangerous environment, while the intensity of fighting hampers their movement and ability to undertake the full range of their mandated tasks. As Mr. Lacroix told you yesterday, the safety and security of our peacekeepers is a paramount priority and it is a shared responsibility for all parties.
The Mission reiterates its call, both for an immediate de-escalation and for the parties to immediately return to a cessation of hostilities and the full implementation of Security Council Resolution 1701.

BBC News Video: One year after October 7th a wider war threatens middle east | BBC News
A year after the Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7th 2023, the conflict is spreading.
The surprise attack on Israel by Hamas gunmen from Gaza, killing around 1,200 people and taking more than 250 hostage, triggered a chain of violence and escalation.
Israel invaded Gaza with its Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promising to destroy Hamas and release the hostages. At least 40,000 people have been killed there according to the Gaza authorities, most of them women and children. Many more are unaccounted for and much of Gaza lies in ruins.
Now Israel has begun a new invasion to the north in Lebanon, to crush Hezbollah and end its rocket attacks on Israel. Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah has been killed along with many senior commanders of the Iran-backed group. Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon have killed many civilians and more than a million people have fled their homes.
The Houthis in Yemen - also backed by Iran - have been drawn into the conflict. They launched attacks on shipping in support of the Palestinians in Gaza. Israel has retaliated with airstrikes there too.
The gravest threat of a wider war is direct conflict between Iran and Israel. Israel has carried out a series of targeted assassinations including in the Iranian capital Teheran. Iran responded to the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Lebanon with missiles launched at Israel. Direct conflict between the two powers risks a full-blown regional war.
On the anniversary of the October 7th attacks, Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Jeremy Bowen and Hugo Bachega.

ODN Video: Hezbollah, Iran, Israel: How Close Are We to a Full-Scale Regional War?
One year ago, on October 7th, 2023, Hamas launched a large-scale, unexpected attack on Israel, marking a devastating escalation in the long-standing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
For Israel, this day of shock was defined by the massacre of civilians at a music festival. For Palestinians, it represented the continuation of a cycle of violence following years of blockade and occupation.
Israel swiftly responded with a major ground invasion of Gaza by the end of October.
But the conflict didn’t remain confined to the Gaza Strip. Hezbollah, a powerful militant group in Lebanon, increased its attacks along the Israel-Lebanon border with backing from Iran. Iran's influence became more visible, supporting both Hamas and Hezbollah.
Now, one year later, tensions are higher than ever. Israel faces mounting threats on multiple fronts, and the region appears closer to widespread war.
In this video, we break down how the conflict has evolved over the past year, examining the roles of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, and explore the potential for a full-scale regional war.

International Video: 48 hours with Ukraine's frontline medics
In Ukraine, President Zelenskyy has hit out at western allies for stalling the supply of long-range weapons.
(Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
The need for weapons is now the most urgent it has been since the start of the full scale invasion.
Russia is pushing hard on the eastern front, and they’re advancing; even while reportedly losing more than a 1000 soldiers a day.
In the past days Russians have taken the Ukrainian stronghold of Vuhledar and are pushing closer towards the strategically important city of Pokrovsk.
Our team has spent 48 hours on the frontline just south of there near Kurakhove, where Russia is pounding Ukrainian forces day and night with artillery, glide bombs and drone strikes.
We bring you the story of the medical corp of the DaVinci Wolves battalion - and be warned this report contains some highly graphic scenes of injured soldiers and their treatment.

The toll on civilians in Lebanon is "totally unacceptable", the United Nations warned tonight - as Israeli airstrikes continued to pound the country - while almost 200 rockets were fired into Northern Israel, with no reports of major damage.
(Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Massive blasts shook Beirut's southern suburbs overnight, including near the city's main airport. Israel's military said it targeted Hezbollah's central intelligence headquarters.
Meanwhile, a rare Israeli air strike on the occupied West Bank hit a coffee shop in the Tulkarem refugee camp, killing a senior Hamas commander and 17 others. More than 700 people have been killed in the West Bank since the 7th October attacks.
And medics say Israel's ongoing bombardment across Gaza has killed at least 29 Palestinians today.
