My mother is going to Pak. after quite a few years and of course, wants to bring some gifts but we are not sure what to get. Our family hasn’t asked for anything specific and said they don’t need anything.
Are there any popularly asked for items? I don’t have the full list of who we’re shopping for but I know it’s a few uncles and aunties, adult cousins, and young children (ages 10-3). Any suggestions?
Re: Bringing back Gifts from the US
chocolates for children and cousins are always a big hit
aunties really like face creams or make-up from outside since they think it's better
i dont know about uncles
Re: Bringing back Gifts from the US
i m going to pak tooo n gonna meet my inlaws first time so i m taking with me lots of lots of chocolates (every bodys fav.) n make up n purses for aunties n watches for gents n perfumes for both.i know its much but frist impresson is last impression.
Which flight are you going with? Let me tell you one good experience. I was going to Pakistan last year and carried chocolates but ofcourse was very selective due to halal/haram chakkar. I met a lady in flight was also going there. Since we were going by Etihad and it had a stop at Abu Dhabi. That lady went to the shop around at airport and got a big bag full of various chocolates for just 50$. That bag was so heavy that she couldnt even lift it and I'd to do that till she got out of Karachi airport.
So I think if you are going by Emirates or Etihad, you can try the same. You may get cheap chocolates in a lot of variety. :)
