Everyone is grateful for presents they receive but wouldn’t it be better to get what you REALLY want? If we don’t like it, have it already, or it’s totally useless we end up keeping it or giving it away to someone else! Unwanted presents are a waste - the results of our research study prove this, along with some other interesting points, and can be seen under our media section.

There's always something we need or want so what's wrong with just asking for it as a present?

At lookatmylist.com we say it’s a good thing to ask for what you REALLY want - it's not ungrateful or rude, it's helpful and considerate! Remember how much fun it was making a list as a kid?

Also, if you’re the one who’s buying the present, it’s so much easier knowing exactly what your friend really wants, down to every last detail. No more traipsing around shops with no idea of what you’re looking for, ending up wasting your money on something that your friend doesn’t want.

With lookatmylist.com there’s no chance of two people buying the same
present and your friend won’t know what you’ve got them until the big day
– so it’s still a surprise!
