Gitft Wink are looking for 250 UK Mumsnetters with a child at home to try out their site Giftwink.com, a new birthday alert and gift suggestion service.

Here's what the team at Gift Wink say: "Gift Wink is a brand new site taking the stress out of buying birthday presents for children. All you have to do is add the birthdays of the important people in your life (especially your nieces, nephews and godchildren), and we take care of the rest. Our team of gift spotting mums source the best and most beautiful gifts from leading high street retailers as well as boutique discovery brands, and then email you birthday reminders with handpicked gift recommendations in plenty of time.Feel supremely organised and make someone's day, and never forget an important birthday again."

Selected testers will be asked to visit the website www.giftwink.com and spend some time getting to know the site by browsing gifts, signing up and adding birthdays. We'd then like testers to leave their feedback on a thread on Mumsnet. Everyone who is selected and gives feedback as required will be entered into a prize draw where one lucky Mumsnetter will win a £250 John Lewis voucher.

If you're interested in taking part, please sign up here www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/53BVD78

Thanks and good luck,
MNHQ

Hi Lunar1, Gift Wink noticed your query and wanted to respond. Here's their response below :)

"All our gifts are handpicked by mums, and we tailor the gift recommendations by age and gender. We do ask our users for their likes and dislikes, so that we can make more personalised gift recommendations in the future. None of our gift recommendations are paid for by companies.

We'll also be looking at other ways of curating our gifts in the future, such as users being able to recommend their favourite gifts. All ideas would be greatly appreciated."

Hi Squizita Gift Wink want to respond to your comment on gender stereotyping with gifts: :)

"Thanks for your comments on this. I totally agree that gender stereotyping around gifts is a really tricky topic, and in some circumstances it can be unhelpful and even insulting. We worked with a lot of mums to get their preferences and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a "one size fits all" way of organising gift choices, especially when you have a very wide range of gifts to cover. So we are trying out a way of offering all options and allowing our users to choose the one that works for them. But we are really open to all your feedback. We want Gift Wink to work for you guys, so if things need to be changed on the site then we will happily change them. Tell us what you think and we will listen. Our email is [email protected] if you'd like a more direct chat".
