What is better to bring from America. What unique things can be brought as a gift from the USA? Not McDonald's Alone: ​​Delicious Gifts

What to hide, in the USA, excellent shopping is a huge choice, very reasonable prices. Periodically coming to Europe and entering the store, I automatically count “how much it costs in the USA” and start to get upset and sometimes, to be honest, I leave without buying. In Europe there is, of course, what is not in the US and vice versa. This post is about pleasant little things that I have personally tested and donated and appreciated by friends and relatives more than once, and answer the question “what gifts to bring from the USA” or “what to buy in America”.

For those who do not live here and who do not have the opportunity to fill an endless series of suitcases in the style of Arab sheikhs, the question inevitably arises of what to bring with them from America, or maybe something to send to relatives and friends in a small package.

Here is my list of trifles tried and recommended for “operation”, which can only be found here, or the prices for which are significantly lower in the USA (it is forced to disappoint intersant in buying clothes of American brands or equipment, the article is devoted to something completely different).

So, let's imagine that we are collecting a small package for relatives in Russia (the key word here is "small") that I would put there:

Philips Sonicare Toothbrush

The only and obvious problem is the sockets. However, I buy such brushes in the USA, even if I have to carry an adapter with me, I don’t like European options so much. Perhaps this is a subjective opinion, but ...

2. Continuing the "dental series", the second number is whitening strips. Personally, I prefer the old and proven brand. "Crest". The strips may not completely replace whitening in salons, but they are undoubtedly much cheaper, more delicately affect the enamel, and give a very good effect at home. They are different. You can do "all the work" in one go. But personally, I, the owner of sensitive teeth, do not like it, because the teeth then “groan” for a week. You can whiten your teeth in a week or 10 days. I usually prefer a very delicate monthly course. There are two invaluable bonuses for me: it is suitable for sensitive teeth, the whitening effect lasts longer, because it “builds up” more slowly. By the way, I forgot to say that you need to keep the strips for only 5 minutes.

A couple of words why I love this scrub and highly recommend at least trying it: it helped me a lot during pregnancy and immediately after childbirth, after it there really is an effect, the skin evens out, especially if you use it regularly, it has a very pleasant smell, and such a delicate structure that I even apply it on my face (I just don’t use it as “vigorously” as on the body).

4. Peanut butter. I myself am not a fan of this product, although I periodically make a sandwich with it when “I am very hungry, but there is no time to cook”, but many of my friends and relatives in Russia are simply crazy about it. For example, for my dad, this is a traditional Christmas present, which he invariably receives in a package or in person if we spend Christmas together. This oil is natural, very nutritious and healthy, and also something that cannot (as far as I know) be bought in Russia.

It is also very popular among lovers of this oil. Reese's cookies.
I myself eat cookies with pleasure:) Cups of cookies filled with peanut butter and sprinkled with chocolate on top seem especially tasty to me. Judging by the report of my mother, who received several packages of such cookies for last Christmas, I was not the only one, because they were eaten instantly.

5. Clothes and "bells and whistles" for newborns.
In my humble opinion, it is impossible to find better and cheaper goods for babies anywhere else than in America. For three reasons: a huge CHOICE, very affordable PRICES, many of them for the baby's mother are just life saving.
Yes, I really like clothes for children in Europe. She is beautiful and good quality. I would even say that in Europe there is already a fashion for babies a few days old. But is it so important when the baby grows in the literal sense of Pushkin, that is, not by the day but by the hour? In America, there may be clothes for babies with less "show off", but you can buy a few dollars for a few months' supply for a baby. At the same time, it will be soft, natural and pretty. If you want cheap options - go (or order on-line) to Wallmart and Target, if you want more expensive options - go to any store.


Of the additional products for babies, I recommend buying a thermometer that measures the temperature on the forehead (and no tears or inconvenience for you), nail scissors, a “scratch” for gums, children's Tylenol (when the baby starts teething or the temperature rises, it helps like nothing ).

Yes, maybe this is not a “cool” gift, but I have not seen it in Russia, and in America I just got addicted to such packages “with lightning”. They are very comfortable. There are different sizes from tiny to quite large. I put in them already chopped vegetables that are useful for salad or soup, but which I did not use today. Peeled fruit, cheese, biscuits…. yes, a lot more. I especially like bags with plastic zippers (for example, these), I put away shampoos and other liquids in them when we travel - very convenient! In general, I recommend them to all economic girls. It will also be a great gift for moms!

Well, as they say, everyone has their preferences. But many connoisseurs, both men and women, consider Henessy one of the best cognacs. In Russia, I don’t even know if it’s possible to buy it now, due to sanctions and other policies. It is also a great gift for dads, brothers, colleagues, and this cognac will never be superfluous in a home bar.

8. Local chocolate. No, not Hershy, as someone might have thought, but Ghirardelli. His homeland is San Francisco, there, almost opposite the embankment, there is a factory where in the company store you can first choose by trying everything in a row the chocolate that your taste buds like, and only then buy what you like.

But you don't have to go to San Francisco. Chirardelli can be bought at any grocery store or ordered on Amazon. There are many different flavors of this chocolate, so you can take assorted as a gift to "try".

9. Pulmers- a very popular series of oils and body creams in the USA, especially among women in position and in the process of postpartum recovery. This is perhaps the only thing that I have not tried on myself, I just watched the effect on my friends and relatives. The problem for me is the smell. He is strong and there is no hiding from him. But my relative, mother of three, by the way, claims that it was this product line that saved her from stretch marks. I heard the same reviews from more than one young and not very young mother here.

10. Well Bobby Brown. You can buy everything. The resources are just fine. In addition, it is impossible to find such prices as in America, in Europe on Bobby Brown.

11. For those who are going to get married in the foreseeable future, I would advise you to bring Wedding Dress. I bought mine in America due to the fact that the wedding was organized there, but in the process of searching, I found that there is just an excellent selection of charming wedding dresses. The prices are amazing too.

12. And for those who have children or who want to quickly and cheerfully improve their English, it is worth buying Dr. Seuss books. This is just a wonderful find. You can buy absolutely any, they are all easily and rhythmically read, phrases are instantly remembered. The books also contain almost all the most important rules of the English language. My child is not yet a year old, and she already listens to them with pleasure, I, well, I am a little older, but I still correct my English according to them. The books are written in rhyming form and contain funny illustrations. In general, in my opinion, this is a great gift for friends and children, and for yourself too! :)

That seems to be all that now comes to mind, if someone has experience buying other interesting and useful things in the USA, I would be grateful for tips and comments.

Updates .

(December 2015) . I'm going shopping now in search of gifts to fill, I came across a few nice little things:

13. family car stickers. Car glass stickers are very popular in the USA and, to be honest, I have wanted one for a long time. They are the most diverse. I bought "family". They also look different, who have enough imagination and a sense of humor. The price is the most pleasant (about $6). They are sold everywhere, from Walmart to specialized services where you can put any fantasy into pictures.

14. Wall stickers decorations. Inexpensive, great looking and easy to apply and remove wall decorations (in the form of stickers). I bought a few for the kids.

They cost about $10-20, they look great, and when they get bored, they can be removed instantly. They are produced by different manufacturers, I would advise buying those made in the USA, the quality is better than that of Chinese or Korean counterparts. You can also find it on amazon.

(Summer 2016). With the move to Spain, the charm of some American products has shown not only its right side, it turned out that they are (to me personally) necessary, and it is simply impossible to find them in Spain. So flew numerous requests to relatives and friends. So, what am I ordering now myself from America?

First of all, medicines

DayQuil & NyQuil from colds and flu.

In Spain, for such cases, paracetamol is mainly offered in pharmacies and it cannot be compared with these drugs. The first is for daytime, the second is for nighttime. I will not describe the advantages, try it and see for yourself: fast, safe, effective. And the price is very reasonable.

For a child, without fail I make an order for Tylenol. To my great surprise, despite all the praise of Spanish medicine, the choice of antipyretic and analgesic drugs for babies under 2 years old in Spain is also reduced to a single type of paracetamol.

And it has such a disgusting taste that my child flatly refuses to drink it. In any form and in any mixtures. Meanwhile, the need for medicines for the baby happens - both when teeth are cut, and when she has a bad cold. In this case, the American Tylenol for babies with various flavors helps me a lot. Our favorites: cherries and grapes.

I also post a small video that one of my friends sent me, and over which I laughed heartily. So Amazon.com vs. Post office:

Many people today travel the world. There can be many reasons: vacation, job search, business trips. Be that as it may, but returning home, you always want to bring with you at least something that reminds you of the state you visited. In most cases, these can be key chains, magnets, and other minor souvenirs. But what to bring from America, if you managed to get into this wonderful country? In the USA, there is absolutely everything that your heart desires, but if the task is to buy things that you cannot find in your homeland during the day with fire, then you should think about it.

As a gift to relatives and loved ones, if not electronics. iPad, iPhone, Macbook in the US are much cheaper than in European markets, and their quality is excellent. Before buying, you should definitely look at the firmware language so that there are no problems in the future, you need to pay attention to the capabilities of the service. If you buy goods at night, you can achieve a significant discount.

What is profitable to bring from America is branded clothes and shoes. Victoria's Secret women's cosmetics and lingerie are much cheaper than in Europe or Russia. You should also pay attention to brands such as Abercrombie Fitch, Banana Republic, DKNY, BCBG Maxazaria, etc. Timberland women's and men's shoes in the US cost about half as much as at home, it is also recommended to buy UGG boots this is just ridiculous. All clothes are of high quality, so you won’t have to regret the money thrown away for new clothes.

What to bring from America as a gift to women, if not jewelry. The American brand David Yurman deserves special attention. In stores you can buy bracelets, braided rings and other jewelry. It is worth buying silver items from the Tiffany trading house, the price is indicated from the manufacturer, and they are known all over the world. If you are interested in the question of what to bring a child from America, then you should pay attention to toys and clothes. Of the brands for children, Pumpkin Patch, Gymboree, Babysrus, Target should be highlighted. Very soft and high-quality shoes are sold here, clothes are offered at a small price.

In the US, many people buy cold remedies, even in the midst of a flu epidemic, Nyquil, Dayquil will help to forget. Advil and Tylenol have good analgesic and antipyretic properties. Those who have good, strong enamel can use Crest whitening strips, this company also has decent toothpastes. Women will definitely like American cosmetics.

Tourists with large sums of money can be recommended to buy a car. Nothing that it will have to be brought from America with the help of specialized companies, but the purchase at a price will fully justify itself. Even if you take into account all the costs, the car will still come out cheaper than in Europe. In addition, American cars have a wide range of options, the actual mileage is indicated and it is possible to use Russian brands of gasoline. In the US, you can buy a lot of high-quality and interesting things that in Russia are either very expensive or not available at all. Therefore, if such an opportunity presented itself, it is necessary to purchase all the goods of interest.

Any trip gives good impressions. Coming to America, a tourist is interested in everything: from the cuisine to the history of development. A vacation in the USA will leave traces in your memory for a long time, photographs will help bring back the moments, but what to buy in America, what could remind you of a wonderful pastime and what kind of present can you please your relatives?

American clothing and articles of use as a present

When thinking about what to bring from New York, you should pay attention to clothing or technology. Things abroad are vastly different from clothes in the CIS countries. Many people specifically place orders in the online store, wanting to get things of American origin. You can buy traditional clothes with the American flag. You have the opportunity to please your loved ones with clothes bought there, do not miss it!

In our country, almost everyone dreams / buys an iPhone. In the US, Apple products are much cheaper, so it will not be superfluous to buy a gadget for yourself or your family.

Alcohol

Any country has strong drinks with a unique aroma and taste. So in the United States, alcohol is prepared using a special technology that other countries do not repeat. Residents of the country often drink "root" beer, which is non-alcoholic, dietary, with almost no taste. Buying this type of alcohol, it will be possible to remember the culture of the country from time to time.

In the CIS countries, fewer people prefer non-alcoholic beer, so when deciding what to buy in the US, you can give preference to wine (Merlot, Malbec, etc.), rum, pisco or American whiskey.

Cosmetics from the USA as a gift

As a keepsake, you can buy cosmetics, which are not only much cheaper in this country, but also have an extensive selection, as well. Many girls who take care of themselves dream of cosmetics companies (Urban Decay, MILANI, Jordana, etc.), which are almost impossible to find here. In any store in America, you can find high-quality cosmetics from a well-known company for little money. Such a present will be ideal for a girl who regularly takes care of herself.

Medications

Often, vacationers buy strips that whiten their teeth by several tones in several applications. In addition to them, there are those that do not contain side effects. Such drugs are very effective, but in Russia you can hardly find them.

Food

How common is Bounty drinking yogurt? What about coffee flavored KitKat? You will not find all this with us, and if you order via the Internet, you are unlikely to receive a quality product.

Usually added to baked goods which is also worth buying.

Popular in America is the Oreo cookie, which has become famous in our country. You can see such cookies on the shelves in supermarkets, but those who have tried American, that is, original cookies, will say that they are very different. It is worth buying the original to feel the real taste of this cookie.

Souvenirs from the USA - everyone's dream

Magnets, cards, etc. are often brought from the USA. Souvenirs are also considered other things.

You can take American perfumes for yourself (if you know the preferences of loved ones, you can buy a perfume for them). For relatives there are special sets of branded underwear, watches and even consoles.

For children, the stores have various toys, figures of heroes, etc., which are not available in the CIS countries. If you know the baby's hobbies, there will be no difficulties in choosing a present.

A present, both for yourself and for your family, is an important part of your vacation. Without picking up any souvenir, the journey will not be completed correctly, and upon arriving home, everyone will regret that they did not take a piece of the country with them. Even a beautiful magnet can give good impressions, and most importantly, memories.

"The United States is, in fact, the greatest poem in itself" Walt Whitman

Tell in verse about a trip to America and people most likely will not understand this. Bring them a present, a souvenir or a new gadget - they will definitely appreciate and remember your act of a “true friend”.

A cowboy hat on his head, the Statue of Liberty in his hand and a bottle of whiskey in his bosom. This is how friends and family expect to see you after a trip to the United States of America.

In addition to souvenirs and alcohol, superfoods are often brought, which are difficult to get in Russia. New and exactly original gadgets from Apple, cosmetics from leading brands and, of course, clothes.

And it is also worth grabbing maple syrup for the sweet tooth, the original Mars or Snickers and a jar of peanut butter.

Hope. @nadya_duluth

Nadezhda came to visit us to tell us what original gifts can and should be brought from the USA, because Nadia lives in America and knows things that we are not told about in books and TV shows

Imagine that you are in America, the days of your vacation are rapidly melting away, and it's time to start thinking about gifts.

It is clear that the best gifts are a magnet and a card, but let's imagine that you are not in New York. And brought you, say, to Minnesota, because I was once brought, and the first time as a tourist.

Believe me, the difficulties with choosing gifts were such that I was ready to give American air in a bottle.

However, you are lucky, now I will reveal the secret of what non-banal souvenirs that reflect the mentality and character of local residents to bring from the USA:

1) Just as housewives in Russia adore Malakhov and Guzeeva, so do Americans love sports: baseball, football and hockey are attracted not only to stadiums, but every evening (what can I say ... around the clock!) to TV screens.

Therefore, a great gift would be the merchandise of one of the local teams. Let's say I'm in Minnesota. What is their favorite sport? Hockey! Favorite team? Minnesota Wild. In every department store you will find hockey jerseys and baseball caps with the team logo. Not only, of course, hockey, but also basketball, football and so on in the list.

Well, if in doubt what to take - take the merchandise of the Chicago Cubs baseball team - the whole country loves them (t-shirts, baseball caps, logo balls, hoodies).

2) Every decent American was once a Boy Scout. The memory of the days spent learning to navigate the terrain and selling cookies remains for a lifetime. Not many people know that the Boy Scouts have their own Scout Shop, where you can buy camping items, clothes, penknives, badges and even cufflinks.

You can pre-select and book a gift online and pick it up from a store that will be near you.
⠀ ⠀
3) Even before the Pilgrim Fathers sailed to the territory of North America, Indians inhabited green hills, shady forests and dry prairies. Now the descendants of the indigenous peoples of America live on reservations, but you can buy blankets, clothes, boxes, belts and jewelry made by them everywhere.

In our area, turquoise jewelry is common, for example. As well as things with traditional patterns

4) Minnesota is the land of 10,000 lakes. And where there is water, there is a lighthouse. In Minnesota, lighthouses line the entire shore of Lake Superior. And every self-respecting resident of the state has a house on the lake, which he tries to decorate in his own way - boards with inscriptions, door mats, toy iron beacons, ship-themed dishes, wooden lamps with candles inside.

There are even specialized stores where you can buy all this.

5) And of course, in every more or less large city there is a college or university with a merchandise store. Americans are very proud of their alma maters, many have hoodies with the logos of schools or varsity sports teams. Such sweaters are an excellent "living" souvenir that does not lie around in the closet, but will always remind you of the place where you brought it from.

Over the past 3 months, this topic has become especially relevant for me - I send something every day, they already recognize me at the post office, remember my Russian surname, tell the latest news and share where to buy cool vintage badges. The most frequent, but impossible request is the iPhone 4, I myself thought about it, but on the spot it turned out that it was possible to buy it in the Apple Store only with a Social Security ID, or from hucksters in tourist shops, where it costs $ 800. Sometimes they just ask me what to ask friends who are going to New York to buy. For these purposes, I have compiled a special list. If you think that something is not deservedly missed, please write. Extras are always good :)

At the end of the post, a bonus for everyone, not only for those who are going to the States

In the top four, the most popular queries are:

1. Timberland
Even with shipping, they come out almost two times cheaper than in a company store in Moscow. Classic men's are $155, women's browns are $135, and pinks are $90. Just in case, add 9% sales tax and here is the final price of joy.

2. UGG
Even if you already have one pair, take the second in reserve. Classic short ones with sales tax will cost $130, medium ones - $150 and high ones - $195.

3. MacBook Air
iPad won't turn your life around 360 degrees, but it will be indispensable if you travel a lot. Today officially started selling the tablet in Russia, by the way, the prices are quite divine, given the same sales tax in the United States. For example, the cheapest iPad without 3G in the Apple store costs $550, in Russia - $20,000. The popular iPad 16 GB 3G+WiFi model costs $690 in America and 25,000 rubles in Russia. And if suddenly the cards match so that someone is traveling from America, and you still want such a toy for yourself, you can ask to buy it. Only, I'm afraid I'll have to choose, because recently a new MacBook Air went on sale, which is more expensive than the same popular iPad with 3G by $ 400, but at the same time it is a full-fledged computer.

9. Famous hoodies or T-shirts I love NY
Hoodies in all the colors of the rainbow on the shelves of local merchants cost $ 15, T-shirts - 5. These things are so popular that they are sold on eBay for $ 30 plus shipping, and not a dollar less. As you can guess, this is a tourist attraction, in my opinion, it's much cooler to buy a real American hoodie with the name of the university, or some little-known baseball team for 20 bucks at a local second-hand store. I bought mine from this shop. The owner loves her shop. All things are hung by color, theme, etc. There are hoodies with animals, names of universities, sports teams, diamond shirts of this color, stripes of this, and so on. You will be pleasantly surprised. The exact address can be found on the store's website.

10. Vintage plaques
It could be a Coca-Cola sign or a sign from a local store. Search flea markets or eBay. Vendors on the street are not real, made in China, not of any value

And by tradition, if I forgot something or you think that something is undeservedly not mentioned in this entry, please add your own version!

P.C.: a little bonus, on this site you can order a free set of 5 samples of mineral cosmetics. The best part is that they have delivery to Russia and the ability to pay with a Russian card. Delivery of 5 jars with base, blush and powder will cost you $8. They say that the jars come quite large, enough for a long time. I'm expecting my game in a few days ;)
