How did you come up with the list?
There really wasnt a scientific approach to our top ten christmas gifts of 2007. No sales figures, no market research (well… non of the official type anyway!) We just kept our eyes and ears open, taking note of what we believe to be the biggest trends this year.
Did anyone bribe you?
No! How can you suggest such a thing?! We havnt been sent any samples or freebies to try and twist our arm (much to our disspaontment..). However, we do own several of the items on the list already, and the rest will be making it onto our letter to father christmas this year.
What makes you think you can come up with the definative top 10?
Nothing. We are not special in any way. We have no great insight into what will be big this year, we havnt been to any fortune tellers, and the fortune cookies have been surprisingly unhelpful. However, we do like to think that we know a little bit about the current trends, and we have asked a few of our favourite merchants for some ideas. The list that we have come up with is based soley on a hunch.
Would it have been better to split the top 10 into different categories such as “for him”, “for her”?
Everyone asks us this. And yes, we thought about it. And we would have done it if we had more time. It is something we wil ldefinatly look into for next year. In the mean time… have you checked out our blog? There we show case some of the gifts that came very close to making it, as well as some really amazing gift ideas.
I really don’t agree with your choices… What can i do about it?
Good question. You could try sulking. Telling your mum on us. Writing to your local MP. Or alternatively, you could send us an email (pete.anderson @ gmail. com without the spaces) with your suggestions, and if we like them enough we might even feature them on our blog.
I have another question that hasnt been answered in this rather brief FAQ section…
Again, send us an email. And we will try to answer your questions.
I don’t like your choices… where else can i look?
You could try these 2 really great websites. Each has a handy little search bar to help narrow down your options. Best of luck….
