Ideas For Gift Shopping

Without further adieu we must credit Larry Chase' Web Digest for Marketers. Their editors reviewed 215 gift sites and chose their top 11. We further reviewed these and picked our favorite 5 for recommendation to FranchiseHelp OnLine readers.

ReGifting Site - http://www.swapgift.com

We love it. Swapgift is a trading post for gift cards. You can buy discounted gift cards, sell gift cards for discounted value; sell gift cards on the open market; and swap gift cards with someone.

Discount Coupons - http://www.keycode.com

We don’t know if this is best coupon site but it's a good one. Deals are organized by category, by deal "hotness", by merchant, etc.

Social Shopping - http://www.pronto.com

Some of these so-called "Social Shopping" sites are really weird and it is doubtful that our readers would find much to buy there. One of these, Pronto, is a good one which includes reviews and advice from the shopping community. Site also includes buying guides.

Comparison Shopping - http://www.shopping.msn.com

The MSN comparison shopping site looks at more than 29 million products from more then 8000 stores. They really have their tech thing down pat! Also, they offer "Hot Lists" by personality types who will want only the best and newest.

Basket Gifts - http://www.urbanbasketcase.com/html/enter.html

Sure, you've had it with all the baskets you receive with junky products or rotten fruit. But this site really comes up with some off the wall, creative gift baskets which will definitely make an impression.

Happy Shopping From FranchiseHelp
