Become.com Releases 2009 Wedding Gift Guide

Online Shopping Engine Offers Gift Suggestions in Time for Wedding Season

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Become.com (http://www.become.com/), the Web’s fastest-growing site for comparison shopping, has published a Wedding Gift Guide for wedding guests in need of inspiration.

“It can be very difficult to pick an appropriate wedding gift”

Summer is wedding season, and wedding guests are often unsure of what they should give to the happy couple on their special day. This year Become.com has created an editorial page on top gift ideas for newlyweds to help alleviate this tension for shoppers.

“It can be very difficult to pick an appropriate wedding gift,” said CEO Michael Yang. “It’s important to give online shoppers looking for wedding gifts a great shopping experience in order to keep the focus on enjoying the special occasion, and providing editorial content helps make the decision easier.”

The guide answers frequently asked questions about weddings, from what to bring to an engagement party to appropriate gifts based on the guest’s relation to the couple, as well as offering suggestions for those on a limited budget.

From the Gift Guide it’s simple to navigate to Become.com’s comparison shopping site and search for gifts from among over 5,000 name brand retailers. Online shoppers can then pair the editorial tips found in the gift guide with Become’s shopping features to find the right item for the couple—a dinnerware set in blue to match their new round dining table, for example, is easy to find with Become’s color search feature, and a new stand mixer can be found for under $300. Finding the right present—and even free shipping options to help stay in budget—is made easier by the combination of comparison shopping and gift tips.

Further suggestions can be found at Become.com’s Tip Center and PocketChange blog. Users looking to find great deals should look at Become.com’s Twitter update page to find specials and the latest resource guides.
