Something for your Techy (Tech-Savy) Friends

Here is another set of gift ideas for specific people. The Facebook "Like" sticky pad (or "Dislike"if you stick it upside down) is a good stocking stuffer for just about anybody since so many of us like to "Like" things everyday.  (Don't forget to Like us on Facebook by Wednesday the 14th to win free tickets to the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar.)

Give them an ipad-sized calculator in the format that makes them most happy: apps. Ah, apps make life so much easier...

The "Get Wired" frame is made of Recycled, Cut Wires. Print them a picture to be framed in it -- Even the most devout techy misses developed (non-digitized) photos!


Salt and Pepper battery shakers: Your techy friends have to eat at some point- Let them power up their food with battery life!


The "I'd Rather Be..." mousepad is good for coworkers at the office or people you know work away on a mouse all day. Give them a chance to daydream of alternate activities on this tear away note/mousepad! They'll love you for it!

A Good Pick at a Good Price

Today a customer came up to the counter with an impressive group of stocking stuffers.
When I totalled her out, I was surprised when her total was only $25! I took a quick
snapshot of it before bagging it so that I could share it here.

We have both fun and practical (though in a beauty store, practical still means fun) stocking stuffers, Come by; and save time and money!

A Gift for a Very Specific Person

As I was stocking shelves at the Beauty Store today, I realized that amongst the many gifts that would make the general population happy, we also carry some niche gifts for very specific friends. Today, I found gifts for your Seamstress friend.  The ducky is about $3.99 and we've agreed at the store that the sound of the tape being pulled out is reminiscent of a duck. The rhinestone measuring tape is $12.50 ; and the multi-purpose pouch is also $12.50.  I'll continue to post more of these niche gifts as I find them.  If you need gift advice, feel free to ask. I'll look for things and post them here.
