It's holiday gift-buying crunch-time. If you haven't finished your gift purchases (or started, ahem), then it's time to start thinking of ideas that can be bought or delivered quickly — and when I say start thinking about, I mean, I'm here for you. Here are a few ideas that don't rely on overnight shipping or getting your butt to a store.
- Your best bet is the much pooh-poohed but fabulously well-received (in my experience) gift card. iTunes gift cards are crowd-pleasers since they can be redeemed for music, movies, and apps for iPhone and iPod Touch users.
- I seem to give at least one Netflix gift membership each holiday, and 90 percent of the time, the receiver has decided to keep subscribing, and then I look awesome.
- Amazon's emailable gift cards are the best, and can just be sent to someone's inbox. They also offer a printing option if you want something physical to give.

I just bought my dad a Netflix subscription.
Pretty simple, but I think he (and my
mom!) will enjoy it.
1just so you know, the itunes gift cards are physically shipped to the person. i have no idea why they can't just send the code in an email like amazon, but they don't
2I got my papa a Netflix a year ago, or two? It worked well and was quick.
3Netflix is a fabulous idea, always a hit!
4iTunes giftcards have long been my go-to last minute gift.
I've received an Amazon gift certificate a few times, and they've definitely been among the most USEFUL gifts I've ever gotten. They're especially handy for students.
The Netflix subscription, as others have said, is a great idea!
5iTunes giftcards can't be redeemed for apps...boo!
