When you talk to your villagers and there's an option to give them something, what do you normally give them? And has anyone figured out what determines whether they pay you for the item / give you something back / or just thank you?

I've found that Frita really likes flowers and Stitches loves fruit :)
 
ohh, i just give my dreamies wreaths so they know that i'm letting them go. (the other villagers are starting to get sus) it's cute to have them display them, but each time i give someone a wreath, they pay me
 
i give them furniture if i have anything that i think would suit them (a lot of my athletic stuff goes to pierce) and non-native fruits!
 
I have no idea what determines anything yet, so I usually just give them whatever fruit I have on hand. Usually my native fruit, but it's probably better to give them foreign fruit. Once I get more flowers, I'll probably do those, too.
 
I gave Boots this figurine lookalike lucha libre. Said he was going to look where to put it in his house. Never displayed the thing jesus christ. Wasted bells for nothing on a villager I don't even find pleasing to look at.
 
I've set aside specific clothing or furniture items that suits them, and then go get those when I see the gifting option open up. Maybe I'd give them fruit if I had it on me in the moment too.

So far I've only gifted things three times, but all items were worn/displayed appropriately. Tbh I'm pretty thrilled it's become so easy to improve their look and houses! :D

i’ve been giving them furniture that i think would look nice with their interiors aha
 
i give them lots of different things!!sometimes i see an item and think "this is something [villager] would like!!" so i buy it just for them ahah......might have a lil to do with why im so broke -w-;
all of my villagers have different things that they seem to like, for example prince seems to like all sorts of bugs, carmen likes butterflies, chrissy likes hair accessories like hairclips and ribbons, and when i had pierce he seemed to have a feminine side so id give hive cute clothes and the first pink windflower i managed to get ^_^
 
Items I think would look good on them or in their homes or foreign fruit.
 
Phoebe seems to really like fish and bugs haha. She was over the moon when I gave her a fish xD I try to give them fruit though as I didn't realise at first that they display that stuff in their homes, don't really want to make the same mistakes of recking my villagers' homes in New Leaf xD
 
I like to give them shirts that I think would match their colors or look good on them if I don't like their base shirts. I'm also gonna try to only give them furniture that matches their colors and would look cute in their home.
 
Non-native fruit and regular fruit.
Certain items are likely more effective, but I do not want them to put it in their house if possible.
 
As of now, I'm only gifting Rudy things since he's one of my dreamies, and I can't gift Marina or Zucker things yet. I usually give him sporty furniture items and sporty clothing items. I gave him a mitt chair, and a lava lamp lol. His house layout is the one with the giant table in the middle of the room so he only displays 3 things at a time.
 
I gave Muffy a stinkbug and she decided to name it after my character, Luna. She still has it.
 
whenever i shop for myself im also shopping for my villagers! whether its clothing or furniture ill be shopping for them too. if i have more than one item for them i just store it outside their house till the next day lol

Wait this is such a good idea. From now on I'm going to start shopping for my villagers too!
 
I send every new villager a welcome letter with a fruit in it to welcome them. Then depending on how much I like the villager I give them furniture and clothes or just sea basses if I dont care for them too much lok
 
Usually fruit, unless it's obvious what they like. For example, my Louie gets gym equipment which he loves and gets very excited about!
 
I either give them clothing that I want them to wear, or I give them furniture for their house or just personality.
 
During the day I give them clothes so I can see them change into it. Though the mail I prioritize furniture. I will however give them whatever it is I have for them at the moment, but I try to stick with clothes for the day and furniture for mail.
