New technology has arrived to save the day for those stereotypical mates who lose track of anniversaries, birthdays, and presents on Valentine’s Day. Giiv.com enables the absent-minded to send material gifts like wine and chocolate via a quick text message. After making a purchase through the site, a personalized message will appear on your partner’s mobile phone along with a virtual description of the goods they’re getting.
For example, their phone could read “Hi Jim, we’re so glad you were cleared of those charges. We got you a $25 gift certificate for DeBrand Chocolates,” along with a code to access your new booty online. Currently, Giiv is partnered with Wine.com , DeBrand, and Amazon’s culinary component, and is focused on expanding its food offerings. You might never forget another gift-giving occasion again. You might also be dumped for digitally texting your affections at the last minute, but isn’t it the thought that’s supposed to count?
