Findmeagift.com is a Midlands based online gift company. Even in times of recession, Findmeagift.com have seen sales rise dramatically, increasing it's sales by over 100%. With purse strings tightening, Findmegift.com comes up with some gift ideas based on the cheaper alternatives of luxury items.
Watching our money seems to be an everyday worry these days, with Birthdays, anniversaries and other occasion lurking around every corner, Findmeagift.com has a few money saving gift ideas for those who are skinted rather than minted.
The bride and groom have requested a bottle of finest vintage wine and a wine stopper to complete the gift. On searching the web, the ideal option seems to be a bottle of Chateau d'Yquem Sauterne (1787) French wine at around £46 500, and a rather nice wine stopper from Tiffany's at around £120. Give or take £46 290, this may be a little over budget. Not to worry! Why not get them a Personalised Bottle of Champagne ...
... at £34.90 and a Happy Man Bottle Stopper priced £3.99? Potentially, the buyer has immediately saved themselves around £46 581.11 which is quite a bargain. The Champagne label can be personalised with the couples names, the date and a brief message, whilst the Happy Man Bottle Stopper is ready to plunge himself into the neck of the bottle when the newly weds have had their fill.

Other gift ideas could be purchasing a lovely bit of make-up for a girlfriend or partner. Whilst the KissKiss Gold and Diamonds lipstick by Guerlain may set some mad woman back around £45 483, you can pick up a gorgeous box of chocolate shaped lip glosses for £7.99 or some delicious Naughty But Nice Lip Glosses in the shape of delectable cakes at £6.99! Each time the KissKiss Gold wearer leaves a red lipstick smudge on the edge of a coffee mug, it has probably set them back around £297and the same when they reapply. At least whoever puts on the Chocolate Heaven Lip Gloss will smell all gorgeous and chocolatey and doesn't have to worry about reapplying after every sip of her Selfridge's Mochaccino.
Men drool over flashy cars and the new Lamborghini Reventon must have had many men salivating a tsunami. At £1.2 million it is something that may be more affordable if picked up 2nd hand as a write off at a scrap yard in 10 years time. Whilst working up to that hedonistic day, why not pick up an officially licensed Lamborghini USB Memory Stick? These are fantastic gift ideas for guys who love their cars and want to download pictures of cars onto a car shaped USB drive. Laugh in the face of those Lamborghini drivers, knowing full well that they can't plug theirs into a computer or carry it around in their silk lined pockets. The Lamborghini USB Stick can be twinned with the TVR Street Mouse and Personalised Stig Poster for a totally themed workstation.
