Grace: I hate to admit this, but I am absolutely addicted to coffee.  I like to think that it’s not my fault because my dad is the same way, so it clearly must be genetic and therefore out of my control.  Last Christmas, my aunt gave me and my dad a monthly coffee sampler where we received 2 bags of coffee every month, and I have to admit that it was the perfect gift for coffee-lovers.

It was so much fun to receive new and exotic flavors every month, and it was probably one of the best gifts I’ve ever received.  Many of my friends also love coffee and would really enjoy this gift, but since it’s a bit pricey, I would probably settle for making my own little coffee gift basket complete with either a coffee thermos or even a french press (one can only have so many mugs and thermoses).

Dan: Like Grace, addiction does not quite describe my need of caffeine and coffee.  When I am at school I am always swamped with things to do either for my economics team or class.  I end up finding that a good amount of the time I do not have any relaxation time on a day to day basis.  With all of this, I usually never get enough sleep on a weekly basis and crash Friday and Saturday nights anywhere between 12 and 14 hours!  I need coffee to be alert in class or to be conscious enough to do my work.  A coffee sampler would not just be a great gift, but a magnificent gift for people like me.
