I suppose something that is a big surprise because most useful things I get or do for myself most of the time because that's what I'm used to. By doing something for me that I normally wouldn't do for myself is always special because that's just it- I wouldn't do it for myself.
Both make for a good gift to me.
Either/or, it's the thought of someone thinking of me when they didn't have to, but instead, with their own will, went out of their way to do something nice is a good feeling regardless.

Big surprise
Both are great but ultimately, it's the thought that counts.
las sorpresas de la nada , como cuando recién nos juntamos y dijo que cada vez que me enfermara traería flores.
I love surprises useful things are cool too! How about a useful surprise?
a big suprise
it depends. in my opinion something useful and that I want is good, but sometimes adding thr excitemet of a surprise spices up my life. though I believe that the best gifts are the ones that my boyfriend gives me spontaneously and from his heart.
I love both TBH

Big surprise :) the more romantic and grand the better
something useful
Either as long as it's thoughtful and original and it comes from him
Hmmm that's a tough one. Surprises are fun! As long as they're useful too. Even if the utility is minor, surprises are a lot of fun but it's gotta have some usefulness.
I think both are important. It is best to keep gifts surprises because the exciting part is seeing what it actually is. But I think the best gift is something that shows you care for the other one. Something they said they wanted but could not afford / didn't get or something useful to them (for their hobbies or life in general) are good gifts to me
A surprise of something useful that I didn't know I needed, but comes in clutch.
