Oh the time I have spent in the past on shopping trips for all manner of presents for in-laws, gifts for newly born neices and nephews; the perfect present for the pickiest teen.  Then there is the list of very special gifts I have been expected to organise on behalf of colleagues – this person’s 60th birthday, that manager’s retirement.  The list does seem endless as did the hours of trailing around on each of those occasions because I did not think to or have access to the many fantastic shopping advice sites online these days.

You would not believe how much simpler the special present buying operation has become now.  Just browse the site, have handy the list of folk that need presents – and note of age or reason for buying – and hey presto, there before you will be a stupendous choice, and generally none of the old tosh from the high street.
