Do you ever have a hard time finding the perfect gift for someone?  Gevalia's Gift Matcher is a new App on Facebook that allows you to find the perfect Gevalia gift for yourself or for any friend or family member. The app uses information that is found in your Facebook page to come up with a perfectly matched gift. There are so many gift ideas that the Gift Matcher app may recommend including the Feel Good Spa Set.

My mother in law is hard to shop for so I decided to use her for the application. I allowed the App and clicked on "For a Friend" I then clicked on my mother-in-laws name, I guess she does not have enough "likes" so the app stated
"The Gift Matcher looked at their Facebook profile but is stumped. Add more likes and come back tomorrow. Until then, they are mysterious. In the movie "Mysterious ISLAND," Herbert Lom plays Captain Nemo. In the movie "Finding Nemo," Willem Dafoe voices Gill. Dafoe was also in "The English Patient." English, meaning England, a European country. Therefore, The Gift Matcher says get the European Classics Coffee Basket"

I tried a few different friends and got the same response as above. If the person you are searching for has "likes" or even a certain "like" on their profile you should have better luck. For instance, if you "like" Tom Cruise, the Gift Matcher will recommend French Vanilla coffee because he was in the movie Vanilla Sky.

If you decide to use the Gift Matcher app you will receive 10% off your purchase plus Free Shipping on all orders of $50 or more.

 
One lucky reader will win a Feel Good Spa Set ($60 Value!)
Microwaveable spa slippers and neck wrap with soft chenille fabric
3 boutique teas (Green tea/Mango, White Pear and Mixed Berry)

I think that teenagers, like my nieces and nephews are hard to shop for. they are at a tricky age. I usually give them money and some snacks, cookies, or something like that. Then they can get what they want or save for something bigger.

My brother in law is hard to shop for!! I can never think of anything for him. He has everything he needs, and I know nothing about tools or anything like that. So it's always a challenge to find something every year!

Penny Zeni said...

My dad is difficult to shop for because he is very picky and pretends he never wants a gift! But he is always thrilled when I select just the right one. But I have to pour a lot of time and care into picking the perfect one. This seems like great tool to help - thank you!
