Gift ideas for the holiday season

Buying the perfect gift is not always easy to do. There are a few gifts that are hot this season.

The Samsung Galaxy SIII is a smartphone released in competition with the iPhone 5. It’s commercials mock the iPhone 5, claiming that all that’s new about it is a larger screen, and the Galaxy’s screen is even larger. This phone has everything. It was rated number one smartphone by “Stuff” magazine. The price goes up to $600, however, many carriers are offering prices as low as $80 with a contract. This phone would be great for anyone who wants to keep everything in one place.

For the gamers, Nintendo recently released the Wii U. This system comes with a controller with a screen, which allows players to continue playing their game while someone watches the T.V.  It also allows gamers to get more interactive. The controller becomes a part of the game. In some challenges, you have to move the controller like a Wii mote, but the controller is shaped like a regular controller. The screen on the controller is also a touchscreen, allowing gamers to get even more interactive. Depending on the size, Wii U’s are between $300-350. However, this item is flying off shelves fast.

If you don’t have a few hundred dollars, movies, CD’s and gift cards are always great options. Handmade gifts are also great because they show time and effort. Knowing whom you’re shopping for is the key to finding the perfect gift. Ask them their clothes sizes and what they want to get an idea of what you can look for. Walk through stores and ideas will come with ease.
