Usually I will go to eBay for some best friend gift ideas. In fact, I have bought many things especially the novelty ones from eBay which mostly I give them away as presents. There are plenty of choices with great variety even handmade. You can compare different kinds of items at various price levels. I think it is a heaven when you want to shop for gifts and even for last minute. You don't have to think of homemade or personalized presents anymore.
Over the years, I have compiled a list if thing I have gotten for my best friend. Some of them are band pins, a Robo Raptor, t-shirts, a watch, a Fur Real koala bear and some hard-to-find movies. When I run out of gift ideas, I will just browse to eBay. If you are looking men gifts, you can find them too. Most of the times, I can find some unique ideas plus I get some discounts as well. I like it so much because I don't have to worry about the delivery. eBay can ship the gifts directly to your best pal. You have choices of shipping. If you want the gift to arrive in the next couple of days, then choose express delivery. Otherwise you can the standard postal delivery which is the cheapest of all but it will take about 3 to 4 days to arrive.
Let me warn you first about shopping at eBay. If the gift is spoiled, then you may have problem getting it fixed. A few months ago, I bought an electronic gadget and my best friend told me that one of the button was not working. So, I contacted eBay about it and they could not help me because the same item is no longer available in the seller's store. I had no other choice but to send to a nearby electronic store for repair. So even though you may enjoy the lowest price but this is the area you need to give some thought first before you buy.
The other thing is that the gifts don't come with baskets unless you shop at online gift stores. You probably have to send it in its original wrapping if you opt for shipping services. However, you can have the items sent to you and you can pack them nicely in creative and home made baskets with personalized cards.
Besides eBay, you can also find some good bargains under $10 especially for gifts at Amazon. If your best buddy likes reading books, then I think this is a great place to shop. Amazon also sells videos, movies, and games which may give some unusual gift ideas for your best friend. Just like eBay, they take care of the delivery for you.
Some unique gifts can be found in Ikea. If the store is not available in your neighborhood, then just go online. You can ship the gift to Canada for only $40. I like Ikea because I often find small items that are special. I'm sure you would find something great for your best pal.
So, if you are looking for best friend gift ideas, the Internet is the best resource. Top online shopping web sites such as eBay, Amazon, and Ikea offer user friendly browsing. They offer powerful search tool and all their items are placed in categories. These feature makes it easy for you to shop and match the themes of the occasion. Moreover, their stuff are inexpensive. With delivery taken care of, you can send the gift to your friend in any part of the world. But sometimes you need to check the fine print. Some sellers are only willing to ship within the United States. So, whether you are shopping for Christmas, baby shower, birthday, bridal shower, wedding, graduation, or anniversary gifts for your best friend, you know where to go the next time.
