Review to Win 1 of 5 Perfect Holiday Gifts

   By SheSpeaksTeam  Dec 01, 2011

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.

My sister got an angel from one of our local Angel trees and bought all of the things on the list and put it under my name ! That was the best gift i have ever gotten, every scence that we all donate to a needy cause in the name of the person who would have recieved a gift. Talk about feeling good!

I like to try to find a gift that will be something the person that I am gifting will actually use or needs, while staying in my budget. I like to shop the sales. Black Friday was a great time for me to find inexpensive gifts within my budget and I know the reciever of the gift will love. Also, for the hard people (teenagers) I like to gift movie theater certificates so they can pick out a movie to watch and have a night out.

Okay, my favorite gifts probably sound kind of corny, but I loved them both. First was an electric pencil sharpener with a few packages of pencils with pretty designs on them. Everytime I sharpen the pencils for use, I think of the giver. Second favorite gift? Soaps, soaps and more soaps. A big basket with laundry soap, dish soap, dishwasher soap, pump handsoaps and pretty bar soaps for the face, shower gels and bubblebath for the tub. I didn't have to buy any soap products for a few months. I thought it was a great gift!!

I received a Braun hand blender from my dad years ago and it is still going strong. I do take good care of it, but it is a quality product. I can whip up egg whites or whipping cream without all the blender stuff needed. It does mix ingredients quickly without much mess. I would recommend the Braun hand blender to everyone based on my experience.

I also think gift cards are great. To give or receive. Got my husband an I pad last Christmas and he loves I tunes gift cards and my kids like them so they can get songs and movies for their I pods. I like gift cards to my favorite clothing or make up stores. For my mother, she always loves a group picture of all the grand kids, so that's what we did for her and my dad this year. I'm sure she will cry.

One of my favorite gifts I have received for Christmas was a gift certificate for an hour long massage, it was great because after all the hustle and bustle of the holidays I got to relax on which ever day I so chose to use my gift card and get my massage it was amazing :)

I tend to shop throughout the year to look for gifts so I'm not rushed at Christmas time. One of the best gifts I have ever gotten was a hardback book of photos of a trip I went on with my sister. She created it on Shutterfly. It just proves that you don't have to have the most expensive gifts to have the best one!

The gifts I give to my family & hubby family is homemade jalapeno jelly that I taught myself how to make. So every Christmas families tell me please make that for us again for Christmas. So I change it up every year I give them the jalapeno jelly with a basket full of little surprise gifts. And they all are very Happy. So thats what I do and it seems to be a Big hit every year.
