We have all been there!
I know this type of year is always the hardest with some people and I am no exception to the rule! Christmas is around the corner and your probably still trying to find that perfect gift. I’ve been there and so has many others out there. Unlike most others you don’t quite know what He or she will want but do know they like Technology. If I am betting man I’d have to bet that your sweating in your seat because your are so stressed over finding the perfect gift.
Before I start suggestions, I must tell you some things NOT to do. Here are some very important points to this:
- Don’t GO overboard with the gift. (Not to expensive)
- Don’t buy an item because you think it is cute. (Guys don’t want cute)
- Avoid buying accessories. (You might buy an accessory that doesn’t go with the tech gift!)
- Don’t buy things from sites that are NEW. (Your just asking for problems)
These are just a few things that you shouldn’t do. Nothing is set in stone but you are going to have to figure out what you are going to and stick to it.
Get inside your Tech sweet heart!
Now this isn’t trying to be literal but figuratively speaking. It is however important to know what he or she likes and buy accordingly. Some technology gurus like big things and others just like the useful things. It really doesn’t mean the size of the gift is the most important or the price of the gift. It however is just that, the thought that really counts. If you know your other half is complaining about their Cell phone, maybe it is time to think about buying a new plan or even buying an unlocked cell phone. Have they commented about liking the Kindle Fire? Or Maybe they like the Ipad, they may even have said they like to have an android device? Nothing is really set in stone per say but it can be helpful if you think about what your are buying and ask your self this question “Is this something that he will truly love?”
Perfect gifts are all their cracked up to be!
- Give Giftcards — They let him buy what he wants when he wants and where ever he wants. This is something like a good way to give him permission to buy that tech toy that he always wanted but felt you would not allow because of money or some other reason.
- Prepaid Credit Cards — This is something that is even more simpler than buying a gift card from one site or store. This allows him to go to any store he choices and buy there. Again this means you must accept the consequences if he buys something you don’t like or want. Sometimes men just have to be boys.
I’ve not forgotten about you females!
Although I am a male, I haven’t forgotten about what you might like and though this is mainly a mans perspective and what men would really want that doesn’t mean that you should be left hanging. So I thought I would try to give some good technology suggest to the men to buy for women.
- Tablets are great gifts for women — I really hate to say this but I have found my family who are all females simply want to be able to surf the web and do other stuff without the need for a laptop or desktop. They also like it to be able to read their books while traveling or go to basketball practices.
- A GPS is good for women — I for sure know this to be true. My sister sometimes can’t go anyplace with her GPS to tell you how to get there and for that matter my mother who isn’t good with directions will use a GPS to get to where she needs to go.
Merry Christmas
