Possibly the Perfect Gift: Picaboo Photo Books

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I am trying to work out Christmas gifts in advance this year; I know, how organized of me…right? Anyway, there are a couple of people I dearly love, but who are nearly impossible to buy for because they have just about everything they have ever wanted. On the one hand, I am so happy that they are in this position; on the other hand, it sure makes buying gifts difficult! When I ask them what they might like for Christmas, I get nothing but blank looks and a scrunchy face as they try to think of something. Hmm.

Years ago, Julie made me a photo book after our families took a trip to Scotland together. It is still one of the most thoughtful gifts I can remember ever getting from anyone, so when this Picaboo Photo Books special passed through my inbox, I thought it might be just the ticket. Unfortunately it is only for Windows, so I am not yet sure if I will do it — but maybe one of you can benefit from the deal.

You can create and buy one Picaboo Photo Book and get a second copy free when you use the code NVBGF; this offer is only good until November 30; simple books start at $19.99, but they can get much pricier and very elaborate.
