surprise GifT or?

I would choose a gift I actually asked for. That's why I'd appreciate it more if a person would ask me what I want than be surprised (with dismay -- haha). I usually ask for things that I would use or consume (but not food) like make-up and perfume. Same thing goes, whenever I give a gift, I also ask the person what he/she wants so that I know the gift would be appreciated. I think that's even more thoughtful because the person would surely be satisfied or happy.

Without a doubt I would appreciate a surprise gift much more. That would mean the gift giver put some serious thought into what to get me. It doesn't matter what it is, it came from the person's heart. ‹(°¿°)›

I would certainly appreciate a gift that I've vocally asked for. I like surprise gift, but it is way out of my taste I would not be flattered.

I would be always happy and do appreciate a surprise gift. TO open a surprise gifts its always a excited moment and ave different feelings. I would be happy if my loved one try to gift me in surprise. When ever i go for Birthday party and Marriage party, i usaully dont let them what gift iam giving them, I always give them a surprise gift.

If it is a significant item, it is more useful to me if it is something I have vocally asked for. In economists lingo, it has high utility over one that does not really fit into a need - unless of course the surprise happens to match what you need. For the surprise, it is nice, but I prefer them to be small things that do not cost much or not difficult to obtain.
