Why a NYT Subscription Makes a Stellar Gift (Besides Avoiding Another Necktie Debacle)

- Knowledge is power: They'll become the life of the party, regaling everyone with fascinating facts gleaned from the NYT's in-depth articles. You might even get a, "Wow, you're so smart!" thrown your way (indirect credit for your awesome gift-giving, of course).
- Choices galore! Pick a subscription that caters to their interests. Do they crave the daily news? Go digital! Are they a crossword fiend? There's a subscription for that too!

- Pick your duration: A month, a year, or something in between - the choice is yours!
- Enter the lucky recipient's info: Here's where the magic happens! Fill in their email address and craft a personalized message (think "Happy Birthday, fellow news junkie!").

Remember: A New York Times subscription is a gift that shows you care. It says, "I want you to be informed, entertained, and maybe even a little bit smug at your next trivia night."
