What to give? Spin the gift wheel

Twelve safe gift ideas to start with; swap in your own.

12

Every year the same question comes a week before the holiday: what do I give? The wheel hands you a direction in one spin, twelve ordinary gifts that rarely go wrong.

The list is only a start. Replace it with what you know about the person (their hobbies, their coffee shop, their favourite shelf) and the wheel keeps your version in this browser.

A gift wheel for a whole list of people

After a spin, remove the winner from the wheel with the pop-up button so each person on your list gets a different idea. Save the list under a name such as Colleagues or Family and open it again next year.

When two ideas are tied

Give a favourite idea a higher weight so it comes up more often, and let the wheel break the tie between the finalists instead of the third round of debate.

Questions: What to give

Can I put my own gift ideas on the wheel?

Yes. Edit the list and type one idea per line; the wheel redraws as you type and remembers the list in this browser.

How do I avoid the same present twice?

Remove an idea after it wins, with the button in the result pop-up. It stays off the wheel until you press Restore all.

Does the wheel know my budget?

No. It only picks from your list, so write ideas that fit your budget and the choice will fit too.
