Buying gifts is always hard for me. I want to get someone something they love that is useful and of course I want it to be something they want or need. But how do you know for sure? Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could pick out gifts you wanted to give to someone, so your thoughtfulness is there, yet they could decide what they wanted or needed the most? That would be amazing! Well, PickURGift has figured it out and fulfilled that need for making gift giving easy!
See, I know my family. I know what they love…but I don’t know all the details all of the time. Like Jeremy, he loves to fish and he loves to play guitar. Well, sorry…but I can not keep up with every crank bait, reel, rod and whatever else he already has. Every time I have went to just purchase something like that, well he already has it…or it isn’t the kind he needs for the depth he is fishing or whatever other nerdy fishing fact I don’t know…I always just look for the pretty ones. Apparently not all fish like the pretty ones. My plan is to gradually make a fishing list for Jeremy so that he can point out what is right and what is wrong. For now though I am focused on Valentines Day!
Valentines Day with Jeremy…gifts are not an easy task. So I took full advantage of the UR button and created a list of possible gifts. The UR button is super simple to install and use. 
After you sign up for your free account on PickURGift, it will walk you through adding the button to your web browser. I use Google Chrome, so it was an easy task…just drag and drop it on the bookmarks bar. Now when I am browsing the web, I can simply click it and it will pull up my PickURGift.
I can use this on any website. I have used it so far on Amazon, Etsy and the Bass Pro Website. I love that I can add a little note in the gift description. I can also choose what image displays. I can have several lists as well. Here is what I have added to Jeremy’s Valentines page so far…
I can send the list to him when I am finished and he can choose what he likes. All of the gifts are things I picked out, so the thought is still there, but this way it will truly be a gift HE wants. This is brilliant! I will be using this for many people this year!
I started a Birthday list for Morgan. She will be 16 in April! Do you know how hard it is to pick out gifts for a teenager? Check out what I have so far, FYI…Morgan has goats and is going to be making soaps and other things from the milk.
And just so I don’t feel left out…you have the option to make a wishlist for yourself as well. So while your browsing the internet, click on some things you like and add them to the wishlist. You know you would rather have something you picked out instead of another perfumed soap set…
Yea, pricey I know. But it is a WISH list right? Be sure to follow PickURGift on Twitter!

love that you can add items from any web site. I need to know what people want or need & still have choices to keep some element of ‘surprise’
I like this, once all the girls are in your gift wish list, I will know what they want. This is really good for me, the one who hates shopping.
