My boyfriend is currently working in the USA, and it is our anniversary on the 6th April. Obviously I am not able to be with him, and international post is understandably very slow at the moment so sending him a present from here isn't really feasible.

I've looked on Amazon USA, but nothing has really caught my eye.

Does anyone know of any quirky US gift sites, along the lines of IWOOT or Not On The High Street please?

I'd send him baked goods but we're on keto... 😭🤣

I sent a parcel to the US west coast last weekend - courier booked online on Thursday, parcel collected from my house on Friday, delivered to my friend’s house in CA on Monday morning. ParcelMonkey or ParcelHero are good comparison websites that you can book directly through. I reckon it would take longer to get a UK delivery from a shop to you, than it would to get a courier delivery from your house to your boyfriend’s

Or you could try this one. They 'specialize' in hard to find and discontinued items, most of which (if you're not US born and 'of a certain age') you probably won't recognize. But they do have Easter Eggs and other quirky things.

VCS is currently shipping, but lots of 'one of a kind' online retailers are shutting down.
