Ultra-Last Minute Shoppers - Gift Cards Are Thoughtful & Appreciated Gifts...
If there's anyone left on your holiday shopping list
no matter personal or professional a gift certificate
is always appreciated because the recipient can
select exactly what they want. No returns. No hassles
just selecting something they really want and having
it delivered to their door. Think about it, how much
do you appreciate receiving gift cards? They're not
impersonal and certainly not in those instance where
you know stores where the person likes to shop. But
even if you don't stop and think about places where
someone can find anything, like
Target
or
Amazon.com.
Everybody knows them and if they can't find
anything they like or want you probably would have
faired much worse had you actually selected
something for them in lieu of a gift card. Think
about it.
I mention Target for lots of reasons of course their mix of hip, well designed yet useful products places them at the top of my list so I give and ask for gift cards from them. I love going to Target for my shopping and its where I go about once a month to buy all sorts of things to run my house, life and business. I have dogs so I'm the guy with the 16-pack of Brawny paper towels in the bottom of his cart. But I love snaking through the aisles with my cart and checking out what I need and whatever else pops into my view. I also love checking out the end-cap merchandise that has been marked down. Last time we were there we found this really cool dinner plates in a great color and they cost all of 44 cents per plate. Style and value. Yes, I'll gladly take a gift card from Target.
I enjoy shopping in their online store both their own and their store within Amazon.com. Also, you can use their gift cards in the store and online so that's great if someone likes Target but doesn't have a store where they live, they can shop online and still redeem their gift card.
Gift cards from the following are always appreciated:
AA.com Hilton Sephora
Amazon.com Hyatt SONY
Apple, Inc. Home Depot Spa Finder
Atlantis, Paradise Island Hotels.com Target
Banana Republic iTunes Ticketmaster

Another great gift is a magazine subscription. It helps to know the person but again if you know anything about them you can select a publication for that topic, assuming it exists of course. For friends who like design and architecture I've given subscriptions to DWELL magazine. I love Architectural Digest but this is really great semi-new publication that tends to focus on modern design. Beautiful photography along with quality editorial makes for an interesting issue each time a new one arrives. Love it.

This is a new e-gift card apparently available from Macy's. I'll post a link as soon as I locate it.
I love gift cards, for example I have a lot of friends who love Target and shop there all the time. Well, giving them a gift card is very thoughtful because they shop there already and love it so it's something they'll enjoy. From my perspective when I'm given a gift card its always somewhere I shop or can for a specialty item I'm looking for. Point is the recepeinet gets to buy exactly what he or she wants.
I really like the nice graphics on both the cyber and brick and mortar e-cards. I love them and my friends and family do too.

Carry Hit TV shows in Your Pocket...

So, I'm sitting here ogling photographs of the
new
iPod nano
on the internet and I really love the size and shape
of the new design plus the thinness! Last evening I
watched the keynote of
Steve Jobs
unveiling the refreshed and reinvented iPod lineup at
the
Moscone Center
in
San Francisco, CA.
Well, during his speech he was literally slipping the
new
iPod nano
and the brand new
iPod Touch
in and out of the front pockets of his
signature
blue jeans.
As it turns out he had the redesigned
iPod nano
in one front pocket and the brand new,
stunning
iPod Touch
in his other front pocket; the new
iPod nano
is only 0.3 inches thin. It's all just so fun to
think about because he walked us through the history
of the iPods and how much thicker they used to be yet
some how
Apple's
designers and engineers continue to innovate and make
them even thinner while increasing capacity and
battery life; no matter whether you're running music
or video so you're getting even more bang for your
buck.
Which brings me to how damn cool would it be to have episodes of my new-to-me favorite TV show right in my pocket on my iPod nano or my iPod Classic [new moniker, more on this in a separate post] at least the first two seasons which are available at iTunes. How fun, favorite, hit shows, on the cool new iPods which are hitting stores shelves as I type this. I've owned an iPod going back to the first generation and I was surprised at the quality of the video on what used to be called, iPod Video (it's now called the iPod Classic) and I understand the screen on the new iPod nano is brighter and has the a higher resolution. I have yet to see what video looks like on the iPhone but I understand the color resolution (image quality) are stellar, which is the same on the new iPod Touch. Enjoy.
Hit TV shows, music, iPod nano and iTunes - it doesn't get any better than that now does it!

I'm thinking the iPod nano would make a great gift along with an iTunes gift card so the recipient can get started downloading music and video right out-of-the-box as the saying goes.
