Give an Eco-Friendly Gift with GiftZip.com

With the holiday season quickly approaching, I’ve been thinking a lot about what I’m going to get those out-of-town friends and family.  Buying gifts and then having to pay for shipping, which isn’t cheap, adds up.  With the economy the way it is, I want to get the best bang for my buck so to speak and I think gift cards are the way to go.  But not just any gift cards, eco-friendly gift cards from GiftZip.com.

About GiftZip.com

GiftZip.com’s goal is to offer our users “kiosk-like” usability with unparalleled selection and speed.

Save Shoppers Precious Time, Energy and Resources

GiftZip.com strives to save our users time, energy and resources without sacrificing any part of the shopping experience. GiftZip.com’s services ensure that users will never be forced to wait in a line, drive to a store, or pay additional fees for purchasing a gift card.

Make our Planet Greener

GiftZip.com promotes greener gift giving by offering our users a plastic-free means by which to give and send gift cards. The manufacturing of plastic gift cards wastes valuable resources and causes destructive gases to be emitted. Plenty Magazine, a leading resource for sustainable living, reported that each year plastic gift cards account for 75 million pounds of discarded Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). PVC is a toxic substance that contaminates water supplies. Further EPA studies showed that exposure to PVC puts people at increased risk of liver damage, reproductive and developmental health problems, and cancer.

Gift-giving with GiftZip.com is easy, simple and best of all – free!

While you can’t purchase an egift card to just any retailer from GiftZip.com, there are hundreds you can purchase from including most of “big name” stores.  You can browse the list of retailers and click on the retailer that you are interested in.  Once you click on the logo, a box will appear providing a brief description of the product or service that the retailer offers, as well as information regarding denominations available and locations where the egift card is redeemable.
