Website of the Week: Zazzle.com for Dazzling Customizable Gifts

Was your Father’s Day gift a hit or a big disappointment? Here it was a hit. I scored two Beastie Boys tickets (unlike those elusive White House Easter Egg Roll tickets!) as an early Father’s Day gift for Tech Savvy Daddy and today Little Miss Techie and Captain Computer pulled out all the stops for a fabulous day.

Hopefully the dad in your life had a great day but if not, you can brighten dad’s spirits with a $25 shopping spree on Zazzle.com.

If you are wondering what in the world Zazzle is, it is a fabulous site where you can create and customize all kinds of things. 19,533,855,985 things to be exact! Personalize the basics (shirts, mugs, tie, mousepads, business cards) with your own logo or design your own postage, Keds shoes, skateboard decks, and even pet clothing. Or turn a digital photo of your family into a 3D photo sculpture.

If you aren’t feeling particularly creative or none of your graphics are up to snuff, shop the millions of designs to find something that is as unique as you are. Once you select your graphic, decorate your product of choice. If you want the image on a T, just know that there are over 450 styles and colors of shirts to choose from including mens, womens, kid, baby ringers, long sleeve, short sleeve, v-neck, polos, tank tops, organic cotton, sustainable…You get the idea! The selection is wonderfully overwhelming!

Not only is the selection amazing but the customer service is incredibly responsive. I logged on to the site to check the status of the 2 shirts that I ordered only to find that my order had been mysteriously cancelled. I was puzzled since I got a confirmation upon placing my order 2 weeks before but heard nothing about a problem with my order. A quick message to customer service and writing to @Zazzle on Twitter generated a response just hours later. FYI- I sent the e-mail on a Friday night. (Yes, exciting Friday nights at the Tech Savvy household!) Apparently Zazzle employees work crazy hours even on Friday nights to resolve issues quickly. Mine was resolved even before I woke up on Saturday morning! Now I’m just waiting for my shirt and Tech Savvy Daddy’s shirt with this logo to arrive!
