Besides, this is an email forum, so I think the thought is around email-related gifts you can give.
First, very few people are actually doing a total lockdown, and most businesses are very careful about masking. Second, you can order from all kinds of businesses by mail, as well as arrange for curbside pick-up in many places. (For books, there is also Abe.com.) I just know I'd be really irritated if someone gave me an email gift card for Christmas.
