Three FREE Gift Ideas!

As these last few days before Christmas wind down, you’re probably finding your pockets feeling pretty empty. Here are three great ideas for gifts that are completely free.

1. Wordle.net

According to their website, “Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide.”
With wordle, you can either type a bunch of words in a field that the website will work with or type in a website URL and the site will automatically take the main words from that page.

Wordle.net makes this sort of project so mind-numbingly simple, its incredible.

Print it out, Throw one of these into a cheap or self made frame, and voila! Gift ready!

2. Bake Cookies

I’ll tell you what- I don’t think you could make me a whole lot happier than to hand me a batch of fresh snickerdoodles. I’m a sucker for those things.

Throw some shredded paper in the bottom, bake a few different types of cookies, and put them in a basket and you’ve got a killer gift for any friend or family member!

3. Coupon Book

Make your own coupon book. These can be filled with things like “one free backrub”, “5 rooms vacuumed”, etc.

If you really want to make a killer one, mix it with your own home made coupons and coupons for different stores, restaurants and anything else that the receiver might be interested in.
