Gift Idea (n4): Perfect Christmas present: Buy some carbon
This is your situation: you need to buy a present for some family/friend/cousin/nephew/mum/grandmom/blogger/whatever and he/she has everything. We mean 'EVERYTHING'.
Sure you recognize this situation... Heck, you have EVERYTHING yourself (except that fancy iPhone nobody is going to buy you for your christmas anyway...)
Your problem: you don't know what to buy.
Your solution: 1) spend hours and hours for the perfect gift and be afraid of ending up with something he/she already has, or wasn't exactly the thing he/she wanted 2) buy a piece of junk that will make them unhappy anyway, 3) buy a lousy voucher that will make you look like 'I didn't know what to buy so I bought this lousy voucher'-loser. (voucher are so nineties...)
I have a real solution for you:
Buy some rainforest!
Advantages:
-It's ecological
-It's original
-It's tax-deductible ;)
-Always good: Your WWF cousin, your gay neighbors, or your nearly married friends, they'll all love it. (except your grand mom who doesn't understand it) (Imagine: you'll be giving some people their first piece of land ever)
-It's worth the 50 euro/piece as you'll be saving 300 species of beautiful (or ugly) bugs and flowers. And most of all, so you'll be saving some oxygen for later. (Yes, it's also a present for yourself.)
The coolest (geekiest) part of it? You can check your/his/her piece of land on Google Earth
(Tx to C for bringing this up)

Thx for the gift, P and I are really happy with this piece of nature. I just can't stop thinking about all the kinds of things that might live there... It feels like my terrarium and aquarium have a big brother now.
