Gift Shopping Help Is Here!

Sometimes the most difficult thing is figuring out what to give to those on your list. I always have one or two people that are tough to buy gifts for. There are a couple of shopping services out there on the net and I've tried a couple of them but there is one that's a little different. It combines a couple of different things that make it very worthwhile.
The site is itsthoughtful.com and what they do is allow you to create your own homepage which can then be accessed by your family and friends to view your wishlist or your favorites. The site also gives recommendations based on the person you are shopping for. These recommendations are driven by the its thoughtful community rather than just one or two web managers. All of the products are submitted by members of the itsthoughtful community. Members are encouraged to vote for the products they like best. In this way, the products that are most popular are displayed at the top of the lists.
I'm recommending this site to Staci over at Just Bloggled as she is totally stuck on what to give to her sister for Christmas! It might help you out as well.

I'm going to check it out. My family all have their own amazon wishlists and then we can just look at what they want. They also have a universal wishlist button which allows you to put anything from any website onto your amazon wishlist. This has been really helpful for the past few years.

Smart idea. I don't give anyone presents cause they don't deserve them - but if I did I would look there.

My big problem has never been knowing what to get, it's been being able to afford what they want. I wish there was a website for that problem, too.
