ShopWiki Gift Guides

Ever have trouble finding the perfect gift for the next holiday? ShopWiki Gift Guides are a way for you to find some unique gifts that other users have scored high with. If you are regularly commended for your gift-giving savvy, help out your fellow users by editing an existing gift guide or coming up with your own. (Perhaps you know the perfect gift for a 13-year-old girl.)

Some general guidelines

  • What's the occasion?
  • Who is the gift for?
  • Is this a business gift?
    • Think neutral.
    • Don't buy anything that could come across as offensive or possibly get misconstrued.
  • Is this a personal gift?
    • Spend time thinking of the person who is receiving.
    • What would he or she like?
    • What are his or her hobbies or interests?
    • Price/value is important but not nearly as important as you might think.
    • Presentation is critical. A large gift thrown at someone will mean less (or be considered in a negative way) than a small inexpensive gift that comes from the heart.
    • The sky's the limit here; the more specific the guides, the better.
