12 Fantastical Gift Ideas Only People in Tri-Cities Would Understand

What do you buy the person you love?

Finding the right gift for someone can be stressful. Am I putting enough thought into this? Am I putting too much thought into this? Sometimes, I overthink gift-giving to the point of forgetting what my wife even likes. It's a good thing Christmas, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, my anniversary, and my wife's birthday happen only once a year. This year, we had a baby so a "push present" was in order as well. Fellas, look that one up and live to see another day.

You can find a lot of great gift ideas on eBay.

Amazon can be a lot to take in when you're looking for gift ideas, especially on Prime Day or Cyber Monday. There's just so much and it's unfocused. But, if you like vintage or unique merchandise, eBay can satisfy that search. I went on a search for unique items that have strong ties to Tri-Cities and exemplify what it means to be a Tri-Citian. Needless to say, there were a ton of Columbia Cup pins and random old photos taken in Tri-Cities. Yeah, someone is selling a metric butt-ton of photographs on eBay.

These gift ideas are sure to be a hit.

Once I had my fill of boat race artifacts (someone was selling a press pass from the late 1970s), I was able to find some gold. Whether it's sports memorabilia, drinking stuff, or a spray-painted tumbleweed (I'm serious), you're going to leave your loved one at a loss for words.

If I were rich like one of these actors from Washington state, I'd buy everything on that list.
