Gifts N Greetings

Gifts N Greetings is located right in Humayun Court, at No. 20A Lindsay Street. It’s a narrow spot but we pack a lot into it. We have shelves full of cards for almost every occasion you can think of. Then there are the small trinkets and gift items that take up the rest of the space. Lindsay Street is always crowded, so there is a lot of noise from the street coming in through the front. Humayun Court has its own old charm, though the walls could use a fresh coat of paint. We spend a lot of time dusting the shelves because the city air is quite dirty. When a holiday is coming up, the shop gets really packed. It can be hard to move around between the racks. We try to keep things in some kind of order, but customers often pick things up and put them back in the wrong spot. That’s just how a gift shop goes. We don’t have a fancy website or a computer system for everything; we still write down a lot of things by hand. Most of our regulars are people who work nearby or students looking for something cheap and nice. We like the buzz of the area. It feels good when someone finds exactly the right card. It’s a simple shop, nothing too modern, just a place for people to find a little something for someone else.
