One of my best friends had his birthday a few weeks back, I was extremely busy with some stuff so I didn’t know what to get him as a gift. Then I got the idea of this coupon :) we’re pretty open with each other so I knew it won’t make things awkward
On his birthday, we all gathered at his place, just a small group of friends. When it was time for gifts, I didn’t give him the coupon yet I waited for everyone and then took him aside and gave it to him. I told him it’s redeemable for one time only and he was so shocked and had his eyes wide lol, I thought maybe I took it too far but he immediately hugged me. I kissed him on his cheek and said *”happy birthday sweetie”* and went back to the living room. He came a few minutes later and we continued the night normally.
