Geek Gift Set Review & #Giveaway – Ends 12/05/11

I’m pretty sure that I have mentioned once or twice that the Alex is a bit of a geek.  For me, that is awesome because I consider myself a geek as well and through our love of geeky things, we managed to find each other!

When shopping for gifts for him, I always like to find quirky, humorous gifts that I know will definitely make him laugh.  Yes, we are that couple.

One year I got him an entire bundle of gifts that were completely Superman themed.  Another year, I fulfilled his childhood dream of being a Ghostbuster for Halloween!

Yes, we are geeky.

Now I rely on awesome online sites to give me new ideas.

One of my new favorite sites is UncommonGoods.com because they have a little something for everyone.  I’ve even found quite a few things I am planning on ordering for Baby Ellie.

Uncommon Goods offers a large line of Gifts for Geeks.  Of these, I have had the pleasure of checking out the Evolution Erasers, Eye Glasses Holder and the Clear Staple-Less Staplers.

 

Seriously, I don’t know which of these Geek Gifts I like more!  The Eye-Glasses Holder is a very, VERY useful tool in our home since the Alex is notorious for setting his glasses on the back of the couch or bedside table only to knock them down and have to try to find them.  This addition has given his glasses a new home and the little Alexander thinks it’s pretty cool too!

And really, who doesn’t need an eraser?  I know I always like to have them on hand, especially when I have kids who are always erasing mistakes.  This way they can erase and error and get a lesson in evolution at the same time.

Also, I can’t say anything negative about the Clear-Staple-less Stapler because I am all for a product that is eco-friendly and uses the paper to staple itself together eliminating the need for those pesky metal staples that get caught in everything!

So, if you’re looking for some cool gifts for guys on your shopping list, I recommend Uncommon Goods as a great place to check out!

Or better yet, you can enter our giveaway for a Geek Gift Set that includes all of the items pictured here, a retail value of $50!
