It's getting closer and closer to Valentine's Day so I've put together some gifts (aka my wishlist) from one of my favourite online retailers: IWOOT.com (I Want One of Those.com).
I'm quite a well-planned out guy so I always make sure I'm thinking of holiday gifts and presents well before the holiday is near so I am prepared. Obviously not everyone is like this ... you might be one of those guys who remembers the night before and rushes to the nearest supermarket to get a card and some flowers and/or chocolates - hoping that she doesn't notice that you've disappeared.
Anyway ... here are some cool and crazy gifts for both male and females and/or couples:
1. Sphere 2.0 App Controlled Robotic Ball - £99.99
I love things like this - little gadgets - when I was younger I got a toy electronic spider that crawled along the floor and glowed green! Toys have since gotten lots better - and this ball is great. It has a camera and can roll around the floor - so you can use it to spy on people. It works with Android and iOS apps so you can use your iPhone or HTC or something similar. It is a little expensive for a small gift but a great idea none the less.
2. Grow Your Own Chilli Plants Gift Set - £9.99
Over the past few years (when I first discovered IWOOT) I bought presents like these for lots of people. I like the idea that its a gift that gives back. It's not something you will use and then throw away you plant it and it grows and you eventually get some thing back. I got it for Dave one year but he forgot to water it when he went on holiday and it died ... so remember to keep them watered (or find a plant sitter).
3. One Night Hotel Break With Dinner Choice Voucher - £148.99
I love little breaks away from everything. I'll admit that I don't take enough of them. For £148.99 you can choose from a list of hotels and you also get a dinner choice voucher as well. Sometimes its good to get away from everything and chill with your girlfriend/boyfriend.
4. Nothing - For The Person Who Has Everything - £6.99
I love this gift - sometimes for 'certain' people I never know what to get as they have got everything - or they can afford to buy themselves the thing you want to get them. So this gift is a bit of a joke gift but I still think its a great idea!
5. Couples Makeover Photoshoot Session - £19.99
Sometimes a makeover and a little photoshoot - you know pouting at the camera and doing some weird posing can do wonders for you. It's great to let your hair down and just have some fun. Get some fresh clothes, little bit of make up, do some pictures with the photographer and then get it blown up and hung on your wall (if you want a massive picture of yourselves - that is).
