Even More Holiday Gift Ideas

11.14.2009 by Girl on Fire // 7 Comments

The internet can save you so much money shopping for holiday gifts! You have all the info you need right at your fingertips without having to leave your home and fight the crowds.  You can be sure you are getting the best deal without driving from store to store.

Cheap Holiday Gifts is the goal for me and my family! There are some great deals to be had and I am going to find them!  I want to get gifts that I know the J-man and the girls actually need and will use.  Not something that will be played with for 2 days and forgotten.  That would just be throwing away money.  I want practical useful gifts for my family.

gpsFor instance, the J-man could totally use a GPS unit! He is a general contractor, so he is going to new places all the time.  Also, traveling with his band.  This is something he could use pretty much daily!  I would also like to get the family a handheld one for geo caching.  We went once not too long ago with 4H and it was a blast!

-!Apple 2GB iPod Shuffle Silver--258908820Morgan would totally dig getting the Apple 2GB iPod Shuffle! She has a cheapy MP3 player and the sound quality is horrible.  This one should be plenty good for her and allow her to listen to her music wherever she may be.  I think we are a bit behind the time since none of us have an iPod.  Honestly, I don’t even know the difference between an iPod and an MP3 player.  I think I am techy ignorant.  I’m working on it though.

I plan on getting a smartphone for myself.  I need one.  My whole life revolves around being able to access the internet.  With a smartphone I could access my life wherever I may be at anyBlackBerry Curve 8330 given moment.  I’m leaning towards the Blackberry.  A few of my friends have them and absolutely love them.  I think this would be a perfect gift for me…hint hint…

    I’ve got a smartphone based on Windows Mobile. I’m pretty happy with it, and with the right applications it can do all sorts of things. It can be kind of hard to find new programs for Windows Mobile though. I’m seriously thinking about upgrading to a new Android based phone, you should look into it. Though I don’t have any experience with Blackberry, my impression has been that you’re kind of stuck with the software that it comes with. That could be a false impression, but it’s the one that I’ve gotten.
