We all have that male friend, significant other, or family member who is impossible to buy for. It could be that brother who already has all the latest gadgets. That friend who doesn't have Facebook. Or that cousin who no longer has time for games.

"He already has everything", "He's not interested in the normal items" or "He has very unique interests". These are some of the excuses I've used when struggling to find appropriate gifts.

I've often defaulted to money, gift cards, clothing, or chocolates. Money and gift cards are easy, but impersonal. Clothing can work, if you know the person, but is often returned due to size or taste issues. Chocolates are tasteful, but temporary.

Below we detail six gift ideas that are technically generic, but will be seen as thoughtful and practical to the receiver. And what's more, these gift ideas can be used for almost any occasion. 

1.Stylish cufflinks

Classic & stylish cufflinks. Solid build & easy-to-use, allowing shirt cuffs to be easily secured. Gift it to the one that's always in style. Also makes for a great wedding gift for both the bridegroom and bestman.
