I'm buying gifts and I'm looking for suggestions. I'm looking for gift which I can pay for in BTC - I just bought a knife from knives4bitcoin as a gift for my cousin. If anyone has any others they'd like to share, please post here.

What country are you in? In the US you can buy giftcards with BTC on Gyft: http://www.gyft.com/shop-for-gift-cards/There's a thread about it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=366559.0 |

I'm in the UK. I've got a gyft account, unfortunately there isn't much choice yet for UK customers - they've said that they will be looking to improve this in 2014.
I've just been on Bitdazzle and bought several items.

Can we use Gyft in the UK? |

Can we use Gyft in the UK? Yeah, just not for very much right now. We have a very big market for gift cards here though so hope to see that change next year. |

As I mentioned in the other thread, buying giftcards would be a quick and easy way to convert you BTC into something you can spend on the highstreet, but here's hoping we wont need to use Gyft and many highstreet stores will just start accepting BTC themselves in 2014. |

Choose the UK option and see what there is. |

If you have their email addy you could buy them VPN service for a year. I think privateinternetaccess.com is about $35, and they take bitcoin. All you do is pay and provide them with an email address. They will then send login info to your friend.

According to this UK amazon vouchers are coming soon though. |

im making this simpler, and buying them bitcoins  (paper wallet inside a card  ) Surely $/£50 worth of bitcoins is better than a gift they will forget about in a few days.... and one day they will be telling people about the best Christmas gift they every received..... (now worth $/£5000....) |

Just make sure you tell them that and print a wallet out that briefly explains what BTC is and how to use/redeem it. |
