You spent hours researching the perfect gift, painstakingly wrapped it, and proudly handed it over – at which point she smiled, looked deep into your adoring eyes, and said “Gift receipt?”
Save yourself the time – while still being thoughtful – with Wantful, a gift-giving site which creates “personalized pop up shops” for giftees, just out of beta and officially open for business.
To gift, just sign up and answer a few personality and style q’s about your intended recipient, like whether they enjoy cooking, how organized their closets are, and whether they’d prefer to live in modish downtown or even-modisher Amagansett. Wantful then spits out a range of tailored suggestions:
- For the foodie: artisanal dessert boxes, deluxe beer brewing kits, a set of specialty coffees complete with French press
- For the gentleman: lambskin driving gloves, ivory-handled shaving kits, Laguiole pocket knives
- For the special lady: gold filigree chandelier earrings, hand-loomed linen scarves, luxury skin care products
You choose 16 items, which are then printed in a beautifully-bound “gift book” of your beneficence, complete with custom cover bearing the recipient’s name. You deliver the book (or have it mailed), and they select what they want and enter a redemption code on the site. The perfect gift comes right to their doorstep.
No gift receipt necessary.
