the fact that you're here means that you're in pretty much
the same position as the rest of us...the cashflow isn't
great and you need to limit excessive spening at the moment
His birthday is fast approaching and you need to find him a
gift that will keep you within your budget.
Where do you turn?
Obviously your starting point is probably going to be the
Internet. But there are so many websites online, how are
you meant to figure out which of them is going to offer you
the best price?
Welcome to the world of comparison shopping.
The last couple of years have seent the emergence of many
websites that help you hunt down the cheapest deals online.
These sites collate info from thousands of online stores
across the internet and serve up a handy price comparison
for each product.
So if you're looking for an ipod nano, you simply type
'ipod nano' in to one of these shopping search engines and
it will give you a list of retailers selling that item and
at what price.
Using The Price Comparison Websites
Your best bet is probably to run the same search with a few
of these websites - that way you cover as many online
retailers as possible, giving yourself the best possible
chance of finding him an inexpensive birthday gift.
To find a few of these sites, visit Google.com and type
'price comparison websites' into the search bar - the
results will vary depending on which country you live in.
Local Markets - A Goldmine For Unique, Inexpensive Gifts
If he's the sort of guy who appreciates something a little
unique, there is no shortage of this quality at many
markets being run every weekend.
The great thing about these markets is that the products
tend to be less expensive, because the retailer has low
overheads, and they are normally just starting out, so they
need as many sales as they can get.
You can take advantage of this and find some great handmade
gifts at low prices.
Call In Some Favours
If you know someone who owns a business that offers
something that you know he'd enjoy, hit them up for a
discount or try and barter with them and give them
something in return.
This is a great way to give him something of value wthout
having to pay for it all up front
There are many other ways you can find an inexpensive
birthday gift for him, but hopefully these will get you
started and give you some great ideas you can use.
