When it comes to the art of gift giving there's so much to consider. How do you come up with an idea? It's always tricky deciding whether they will like what you have in mind or if they already have it. You may prefer to get a list from people so you can choose something you know they want or perhaps you just pick up on subtle (or not so subtle) hints and make your own. How do you find most of the presents that you give to friends and family? Do you shop at local stores and boutiques, order online, shop at retail stores, order though catalogues or create fabulous homemade gifts?
We'd like to help a little with this season's gift buying and gather the collective experience from SheSpeaks members, gifts you've received that just keep on giving or gifts you've given that have been a huge hit. We'd like to hear them all!
To be entered to win one of our prizes this week, simply create a review for a gift you or your children have received and loved, and please include a recommended age if it is for a child.

Although it makes a mess and you NEED a towel underneath it, my son LOVES his Cars 2 color Changers race track, it keeps him occupied for hours having them change colors and then drying them off!!!
I love this so much! i am giving several people one of these for chrismas this year!
I created a review for Just Dance 3 for Nintendo Wii. We just recieved and is a great game. Family fun if your playing or if your just watching others play.
The Oster 4208 Inspire Electric Wine Opener with Wine Chiller is the perfect gift for my hubby he is already using it and it was suposed to be in huis stocking
A year ago, my family was given a Nintendo Wii. Wow, this has been used at least 5 times a week since we got it. The kids are more healthy, and my husband and I have both lost weight and gotten into shape! It has definitely been one of our favorite gifts.
I just submitted a review for Foreverlily parfum by Good True Beautiful. It's the only perfume I'll wear. I first received it last year in a giveaway and was instantly won over by it. Every time I put it on I feel like I received a new gift. I have people stop me all the time to ask where to buy it or to tell me how wonderful it smells.
I just left a review for SiriusXM Satellite Radio!
A ps3 is the way to go. My 21 year old not only uses it for gaming but can watch scrap and blue ray movies on it. A great multi use item.
We love the oral b 1000 it's powerful and gentle on the teeth! Sure could use another :))
I added 2 reviews - King Arthur Pumpkin Spice Pancake Mix and Nescafe Peppermint Mocha Sticks. Both are awesome! Tina 'thebooklady" wswpub (at) gmail
I just submitted a review of the Lord of the Rings? Pez Collector Set with a picture. It's awaiting moderator approval but here's what I said about it: I spotted this at a RiteAid and snagged it up for myself. I think it would make a great little gift for the holidays. It's appropriate for all ages - from children to adult Lord of the Rings collectors like myself, to possibly even Pez collectors. Very reasonably priced. I think it was originall $20 but with my RiteAid wellness card discount - I got it for about $15.
Just submitted my review of Williams Sonoma Hot Chocolate...the stuff is so good!
Oral B Pro Care 1000 is a great product! I feel that the kids get a better "brushing" with this handy rechargable brush!
I just reviewed the WII fit! I totally recommed it for families or young married couples! It is a great way to spend a night in - its fun, festive, and keeps you fit!
My daughters always love to get new pajama pants each Christmas. They love Old Navy & Aerie pj pants. They also love to check out new socks in their stockings.
