What is another word for buying for?
Pronunciation: [bˈa͡ɪɪŋ fɔː] (IPA) 
Buying for", is a phrase commonly used to indicate shopping for someone else. However, there are several synonyms that convey the same meaning of making a purchase on someone else's behalf. These include "gift shopping", "purchasing gifts" or simply "shopping for presents". Another way to describe buying for someone else is to say that you are "acquiring on their behalf", "procuring for them", or "obtaining items for their use". If you are shopping for a specific purpose, such as for a party or event, you could say that you are "shopping for the occasion" or "preparing for the event". Regardless of the phrasing you choose, the end goal of buying for someone else remains the same: to find the perfect item that will make them happy.
