Background
GIFTS
Traditionally gifts or presents involve the transfer of money, goods, etc., without the direct compensation that is involved in trade. People often give and receive gifts at special occasions (such as Birthdays, Christmas or other religious events, Easter) or as an expression of love, gratitude or friendship. The custom of giving gifts at special occasions has been around for centuries and here at Prezzybox our aim is to provide the general buying public with a veritable cornucopia of weird and wonderful goodies, so that they are never stuck when trying to find the perfect gifts for their friends, family and loved ones.

When material objects are given as gifts, in many cultures they are traditionally packaged in some manner. For example, in Western culture, gifts are often wrapped in wrapping paper and accompanied by a gift note which may note the occasion, the giftee's name, and the giver's name. In Chinese culture, red wrapping connotes luck.

The online gift market is currently experiencing major growth. IMRG (Interactive Media in Retail Group) recorded a staggering 148% annual increase last Christmas in the IMRG gifts Index, which records the online sales of items such as flowers and gifts that are gift-wrapped, often for delivery direct to the recipient. This shows an increase in the amount of gifts being bought purely online last year. A study conducted by Nielsen/Netratings in conjunction with Kelkoo, also revealed that the lion’s share of consumer’s Christmas shopping was carried out online last year. The average UK internet user spent almost 4.5 hours online compared to less than 3.5 hours on the high street.
GADGETS
Gadgets are devices that have a useful specific practical purpose and function. Gadgets tend to be more unusual or cleverly designed than normal technology. In some circles the distinction between a gadget and a gizmo is that a gizmo has moving parts, whereas gadgets need not have them. For example, a nifty digital watch would be a gadget, while an analog watch would be a gizmo.

In contrast, a device of clever design that has no practical purpose is called a novelty item.

In fiction, gadgets are best known in popular spy films, especially in the James Bond series (See James Bond gadgets). Superheroes, especially ones like Batman and Iron Man whose premise revolves around equipment, have numerous gadgets themselves. There is a cartoon character, Inspector Gadget, whose super powers come from an assortment of gadgets. Also, one of the main characters of the Disney cartoon show Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, Gadget Hackwrench, possess an innate ability to create tools and other technology out of trash and junk.

By 2010 consumers in the UK will transfer £18.5 billion worth of spending to online retailers, which they would have previously spent in stores, according to research by Datamonitor. Visual equipment currently dominates the market, generating 62.7% of the market's value. The UK accounts for 14.6% of the global consumer electronics market (technology, gadgets and electrical goods). The report also warns that online retailers pose a growing threat to electrical retailers (whose main target audience is the gadgets consumer), with electrical e-retailers predicted to take £4.6 billion per year by 2010. The report also predicts the number of internet shoppers in the UK will rise to 25 million by 2010.
