One-of-a-Kind Gifts: They're Only a Click Away

Purchasing a gift can be a stressful experience. Whether you're buying for a close friend or a mere acquaintance, the same questions arise. Will they like it? If the answer is yes, then it could be that they already own it! If you choose to go the safe route and buy a candle, a dessert item, or a gift certificate, then the gift may appear less personal than you intended. Thanks to a couple of great websites, the perfect gift, regardless of who you're buying for, may only be a click away.
www.findgift.com
This is an excellent website for buying one-of-a-kind gifts. For starters, gift selections are organized by specific occasions such as "anniversary" or "house warming". You may also search for gifts according to the sentiment you wish to express or the type of person you're shopping for. If you're still unsure what to buy, the website provides a monthly "Top 20 Gifts" list as well as something called a "Gift Wizard", which gives you one-on-one gift-buying advice.
Findgift.com doesn't actually stock the gifts it offers; rather it takes you directly to a specific online store that does. The website also offers other free services such as gift registries, email reminders for birthdays and anniversaries, as well as bookmarks which allow you to flag gifts you wish to purchase in the future.

Here's a unique gift idea that makes a perfect housewarming present. The item is a hand-drawn, pencil sketch of the person's home based upon a picture you send in. The sketch is drawn by a professional artist and costs under $50. Best of all, no one else is likely to think of it!
www.unusualthings.biz
This is another great gift-buying website which deals with, as you might guess, unusual things. The search feature on this site isn't as specific as the one on findgift.com, but it's helpful nonetheless. The best thing about this website is the quirky nature of its gifts.

One great example of this is the Rorshock Therapy Game. Based upon the famed Rorschach® psychological test, players are asked to interpret various inkblots. You can then use the accompanying handbook to determine what the interpretation says about each player's psyche. How's that for one-of-a-kind?

With prices ranging from $5-75 dollars, there are plenty of fun gifts to choose from on this site. Items ship within 3 days, and there are several shipping options available, depending upon where you live.

So the next time you're in need of a special gift, start with these two websites. And if all else fails, there's always gift certificates.
