While we hope you find plenty of interesting and creative general gift ideas throughout this site, there are some items we came across while researching various products that we felt deserved to be singled out just because they were too cool not to mention specifically. Ranging from the inexpensive to the slightly less affordable, here are our top picks for truly unique gift ideas that are sure to garner rave reviews from your recipients.

Custom Printed M&Ms - Imagine the possibilites...you choose the 2-color combination, as well as up to two, 3-line messages. Go with a red & green combo with "Seasons Greetings" and "From the (name) Family" for the holidays, try two shades of blue with "Congrats, It's a Boy!" and "(name, birthdate)" for a new baby, or how about pink and dark pink with "Marry me" and "(name)" for a one-of-a-kind proposal? A truly unique way to express your thanks, love, creativity and whatever else is on your mind.

Oneshare.com - With a gift of stock, you can make anyone a part-owner in their favorite company. You can choose from among many top-tier companies such as DreamWorks, Coca-Cola, Microsoft, Starbucks, Apple, Harley-Davidson, Disney, Nike Martha Stewart Living, Sony and many more. You can add a custom matte, frame and personalized engraved message to make the gift extra-special; guaranteed to find a prominent spot on your gift recipient's wall and in their financial portfolio!

"My Pet Fish" Soap - Looks exactly like the bag that you would carry home from the pet store, but these plastic fish are actually embedded in a clear, vegetable based glycerin soap shaped like water in a bag. Comes in a variety of colors and would make a superb party favor for kids or even a unique hostess gift.

"ABC" (Already Been Chewed) Cookie Cutters - These cookie cutters produce gingerbread and various other shapes of cookies (star, heart, etc.) that look as if someone has already taken a bite out of them and put them back on the plate...talk about a conversation starter! Put them out on the dessert table at your next holiday gathering or office party, and watch the perplexed, then amused responses of party-goers. Put a hole through the gingerbread man's head and run a ribbon through it for use as a gift tag on a child's gift...sure to get squeals of delight!
