Us Today, in his site (http://www.usatoday.com) tell about, Ashley Delahunty promises herself that she won't wait until the last minute to start her Christmas shopping, but every year, she ends up in a mad dash to check off all the names on her list. "I always have great plans about what I want to do for people, but it never comes together because I run out of time," says Delahunty, 36, of Wellesley, Mass. "So I end up buying exactly what they tell me they want, which is practical but takes the surprise and fun out of it."
A study published this year in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology found that while gift recipients are happier with gifts they've explicitly asked for, givers think that gifts they've picked out on their own are seen as more considerate and better appreciated.
What's more, research led by Mary Steffel, a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Florida-Gainesville, suggests that shoppers who are selecting gifts for more than one close friend at a time tend to focus on how the recipients are different, rather than on what they'd like best.

"Giving is almost more about the giver" than it is about the recipient, says Tina Lowrey, a professor of marketing at the University of Texas-San Antonio who has studied gift-giving behavior.
One way to select better presents is to be aware of what kind of giver you are, she says.
"It depends on the person, of course, but if someone does become aware of their shopping roles, they can change the way they buy," says Lowrey.
