About Us

It thrills me when I find something I like and I know others will like too.  But it doesn’t stop there, I will showcase gifts that may not be ‘my cup of tea’ because what I like you may not and what you like I may not.  It’s sharing what is special so everyone can experience it. That’s the beauty of our differences that actually tend to bring us together!

My background

In my previous life, many years ago, I was a manager of a fashion boutique for a upscale, and popular, national retail chain in Canada. You can see where my passion came from.  Yes there were people who came in looking for items just for them, but most of the time they were looking for something special for someone else.  I developed the ability to not only hear what people were saying but actually visualize what they hoped to find. I did my job very well and enjoyed every minute of it.

A Personal Disclaimer

I have had a chronic illness. Sometimes it has been manageable, but many times it has not. I am now considered ‘disabled’ and can no longer work outside of my home. Why I am telling you this? Certainly not to get sympathy. I don’t like to disclose this at all. But I do think it is important that my visitors know this.  My goal is to help you find a unique gift that will make your someone special in your life happy, as well as make an income. But to be honest, making an income would not make me happy if you, my visitors, are not happy. So when I see the return visitor numbers going up I know I am doing something right 🙂

We do not collect any personal information such as name, email address, etc. If you wish further information on cookies Wikapedia explains it very well here.

If you click on a partner banner or link (advertisement) on our website, you may be taken to a website that we do not control.

I do not sell or distribute gifts, carry inventory or process sales transactions.  When you click on an image or a link this action then connects you to the gift store where these items are sold. They will process your purchase and handle the delivery details.

I may receive compensation / commission as this site is a pay for performance service. This means that when you click on a link for a gift, and you are taken to another site to purchase the item, if you do purchase the item we may receive a commission. If you click to another site but do not make a purchase we do not receive a commission.

Your trust is important to me and the integrity of the site, so it’s important for me to be clear to you that any comments I make about products/gifts are based on my opinion and not because I might receive a commission. It is also important for you to know that I personally select which gifts sites will be listed and if I do not think they would benefit you, or that I have a concern about their business practices I will not list them. If I have listed them and find out there have been complaints they are removed.

Any referral links, other than what is mentioned above, are to my own sites.    Any external links to this site are not endorsed unless noted below. As much as we would like to control who links to us we cannot. So if you find us listed somewhere that doesn’t look appropriate it is not our doing. If you wish to let us know that would be great. Drop me an email.
