The Thanksgiving Day is coming. Do you have some ideas about it? For western people, it is more important than us Asian. But this kind of custom influences us gradually. So, this Thanksgiving Day I want to send some interesting gifts to my families, friends and others in order to thanks for them taking care of me in the long period of time. But it is a pity that I am now in a foreign country. How can I complete my plan? How can I deliver my wishes to them?
You posted this question several days ago, and Ms. Sue & bobpursley offered some advice and options for shipping.
That's a thoughtful idea! Even though you're in a foreign country, there are still several ways you can send gifts and deliver your wishes to your loved ones for Thanksgiving Day. Here's how you can complete your plan:
1. Online Shopping: Look for online stores that offer international delivery. You can choose from a wide range of gifts and have them shipped directly to your family and friends' addresses. Make sure to check the estimated delivery times to ensure they arrive on or before Thanksgiving Day.
2. Gift Cards: If you're unsure about what to get, consider purchasing digital gift cards from popular retailers or online platforms. You can personalize the message and send it via email, allowing your loved ones to choose their own gifts.
3. Local Delivery Services: Find out if there are any local delivery services in your home country that can deliver your gifts on your behalf. Contact them, provide the necessary details, and arrange for the delivery to your desired recipients.
4. Handwritten Letters or Cards: If you prefer a more personal touch, you can write heartfelt letters or create handmade cards expressing your gratitude. Then, mail them internationally using your country's postal services. Keep in mind that international mail may take longer, so plan accordingly.
5. Virtual Celebration: If physical gifts are not feasible, consider organizing a virtual Thanksgiving celebration with your family and friends. You can arrange a video call, prepare a virtual feast, and spend quality time together, sharing your gratitude and love.
Remember to plan in advance, considering shipping times, customs regulations, and any other requirements for international deliveries. Also, don't forget to factor in any additional costs such as shipping fees or international transaction fees when purchasing gifts online.
