Maplin Electronics

Website: www.maplin.co.uk

Not an obvious website choice for gift ideas and presents but it’s surprising how much electrical stuff is bought for Birthdays, Christmas, Wedding presents, and Easter gifts.

If you’re on the search for MP3 players, mobile phones, cameras and camcorders, laptops and sat nav systems and all the accessories you could wish for, then Maplins has it all.

Buying for a DIY enthusiast? My dad would be like a kid in a sweet shop looking at this range of hand and power tools (they’re just big boys toys really).

Know a music fan? They have a dizzying array of musical equipment for those of us that listen to music, but also those that play instruments and work in the industry too. Prices start at £19.99 for a portable MP3 speaker system.

Buying for a computer buff? Get all the components, motherboards, software, graphics and memory cards that their little hearts desire.

See what I mean – they really have something for everyone without breaking the bank. And it’s all useful and practical stuff. Not gimmicky items that’ll remain at the bottom of the stairs under a pile of boxes until next years spring clean.

They have a loyalty club bonus too. Simply sign up to their newsletter and you can get money off your purchases. Even the free delivery on orders over £35 makes gift buying even cheaper for you.
