And what about both getting ready for the gift-choosing in advance and having a good time?
The Giftoscope
has been created particularly for this purpose.
The Giftoscope is a virtual machine, helping to chose presents in off-the-wall way. You're usually asked to specify age and sex of a person you intend to make a present to and a sum of money you're going to provide for a gift.
The Giftoscope emphasizes the gift features as follows:
- Should it be a funny or a serious gift?
- What color can it be?
- How soft or hard should it be?
- How big is this thing?
- Should it be a useful thing or just a trifle?
And so on.
When doing so you shouldn't answer a lot of questions, just mark a few points you expect from a present.
As a result, you may have funny combinations, for example:
- Something blue for a kitchen, which my granny may like;
- A small pink toy for a girl of three;
- A memorable gift under $ 10;
- An original gift for a cat-lover;
- A useful thing for the grandfather;
- A funny present for a brother, who is a student;
- A big serious gift for a couple;
- A funny gift for a “Jack of all Trades”; and many others
The Giftoscope analyses its database for quite certain gifts and tries to find those you could like among them. It's approach to the given conditions is flexible enough, and due to this you can find a gift you didn't plan, but very suitable for a person you a going to present it.
You can buy a chosen gift just on-line: the Giftoscope keeps the leading Internet Shops proposals in its database. But the principle Giftoscope's task is not to sell you goods, but to help you to get off habitual stereotypes and find an interesting idea for a gift. And it solves this problem excellent.
