I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty good at gift giving. I can look at something and just ‘know’ that it’s the right present for a specific person. Except when it comes to my Dad. He’s got to be one of the hardest people to buy for. And, now that I think about it, my Mom isn’t so easy to buy for either.
You can imagine the anxiety I am having trying to figure out what to get them for their 50th Wedding Anniversary this month. Fifty years. Fifty. That’s a pretty big deal no matter where you come from.
Enter Ziftit. Ziftit was designed to make the shopping process enjoyable and easy while eliminating the guesswork out of gift giving. Members can share their Zift (Gift) List of desired items with their loved ones through Facebook, Twitter, and email.
Here are the basics:
- Join Ziftit
- Create your Zift {gift} list by browsing the Ziftit website or installing the plug-in that allows you to ad items to your list from any site on the web.
- Share your Ziftlist with family and friends via email, Facebook and Twitter
- Your loved ones can then either purchase the gift for you or ‘pitch-in’ with a group to help buy the gift for you.
- You can also create an Event, such as an Anniversary, Graduation or Surprise Party. You can add to the list and share it with others so they are sure to get exactly what the guest of honor wants.
My parents were able to pick out a few fun items that they thought they might like to receive as gifts, even though they said they really didn’t need or want anything.
We managed to decide on a couple of gifts for them, {but I can’t tell you what they are, since they’re a surprise!}, and it was extremely easy to make the purchase through Ziftit.
Here’s what excites me most about Ziftit. Not only does it help you get what you want, it also helps others get what they need:
- This past Christmas, Ziftit provided 1,000 gifts to children and families displaced by Hurricane Sandy
- Ziftit is now reaching out to residence of Moore, OK – anyone (members and non-members) can visit Ziftit and purchase gifts for families affected by the tornado
***If you would like to help the residents of Moore, OK recover from this terrible disaster, visit Ziftit today***
