Eid al-Fitr gift ideas

What gifts are you giving on Eid al-Fitr?

Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan. Ramadan is the holy month celebrated by people from all around the world! This year, Eid al-Fitr begins Monday, May 2, 2022, and ends on Tuesday, May 3, 2022, and is marked by the beginning of a new moon.  An essential part of Eid al-Fitr is gift-giving. Eid al-Fitr is all about giving your loved ones a gift to remember, from cash to handmade items!

The Eidi is the gift given to that special someone and is whatever you what it to be. However, some things gave are: 

  • Children: toys, clothes, books, electronic gadgets
  • Spouses: clothes, perfume, watches
  • Friends: Eidi cards

So, where can you find the perfect gift for that perfect person? Websites like Etsy, Uncommon Goods, and even Amazon offer unique items. But unfortunately, most of these websites only provide shipping to clients with a U.S. address. 

So, What now?

Well, OPAS offers you a solution. As a package forwarding company, OPAS provides you with a U.S. address that you can use when shopping online in the U.S. So when you have created an account, add the address OPAS gives you as your shipping address! When it arrives at the OPAS facility, the OPAS packaging team repacks your shipment and sends it to whichever international address you wish, almost anywhere!

Problems with canceled international orders or blocked addresses for your U.S. shopping?

OPAS Personal Shopper service helps you buy U.S. goods and has them delivered to your front door, almost anywhere in the world!

Some U.S. stores don’t accept international credit cards. Other stores may require that the billing and shipping addresses match when a credit card is used for a purchase. This practice is often used to protect an international distribution deal that protects markup margins on goods in your country, or simply to limit the supply of their goods into your country to create artificial demand.
