Worth It Wednesday: Nerd Edition!!!!

OMG! It's Back To The Future Day! As a nerd, this excites and horrifies me. It makes me feel so old, because my first time watching the movies, I felt like today was so far away, and now IT'S HERE!

In honor of today, today's post is going to focus on gifts for the nerds in your life. As a goth/hippy/nerd, I know it is hard sometimes to shop for us weirdos. So let me offer some assistance with a few awesome-sauce ideas.

Nerd Block

This is a really cool service. Nerd Block is a subscription service (like Julep, BirchBox, etc.). Unlike these, you get, not beauty products, but collectables! You choose a category, like arcade or girls jr., and they send you a box each month. It costs $14-$20 depending on which package you choose. This is the gift that keeps on giving, and makes it super simple for you.

TeeFury

Before I start on this site, I must say: this is a great idea for more than just nerds. TeeFury is a clothing site. What makes them different is the designs on their shirts. They are created by independent artists, and they range from Disney to Walking Dead. There are mash-up designs, and even the ones that focus on one subject are wild. You will be hard-pressed to find something this original in stores.

Every day they offer a daily special, which is $11. After the time period for the daily design, it goes into the shop, which ranges from $17-$50. If you want $5 off your first order, click here.


Perpetual Kid

Finally, I acknowledge that not all nerds are sci-fi loving gamers. Some are the goofy, in-touch-with-their-inner-child types. Perpetual Kid is perfect for them. I ran across this site when I was maybe 20 (I can't remember exactly, it was that long ago, lol). I love this site so much! It's got so much crazy stuff that my head spins, in a good way of course.

Because they have such a wide array of gifts, I can't really cover all of the categories. A few that I think are awesome are mood nail polish, a hugging T-Rex ring, and a solar system necklace. Obviously those are really girly, but there are tons of options for guys as well as kids (including babies).

Another good thing about buying from this site is they offer 10% off your first order when you use that link, and they have a rewards program that you can use towards more coupons!


I hope that this helps you shop for your nerdy loved ones. Please comment with your favorite finds!
