gadget giftsGadget gifts can be so useful and since I'm the queen of gadget gifts, I decided it was time to give myself a big one that will help me out immensely. I found this postage meter that does so much more than just print mailing labels. This one hooks up to a computer and it generates perfect labels complete with artwork and it solves one big problem I've had up until now. It's called the Dymo Desktop Mailing Solution PC Connected Label Printer Kit and I will use it faithfully. Last year I wrote a cookbook that has enjoyed modest sales without any marketing, so when I get an order, I either have to use my online credit card account to print the label or make a trip to the post office which can be a real time consumer. With gadget gifts like this, I can just do the work from home and simply put the package in a drop box which will save me a lot of time and driving around.

I might be able to use this postage meter to help others out, too. Sometimes gadget gifts open doors, and if my neighbors have shipping needs, I could use this to save them a trip to the post office or the shipping store right from the comfort of my home. Shipping has become really expensive, and the post office really has the best shipping rates, so this is a real time and money saver. I found it at Shop Terrific Deals located at http://www.shopterrificdeals.com, a site that has quite an array of gadget gifts and video games.

This device requires a CD drive so I won't be able to use it with my netbook unless I add an external CD/DVD drive. This device also comes with an address fixer in case someone makes a typo on their address or zip code. And the labels will look so professional, too. I've found that it's hard to print address labels on my computer's printer and have them look good, so I'm really thrilled that I can create good looking labels using my cookbook's logo and get them sent out promptly.

Gadget gifts like this go a long way in helping small business people like me have a professional image, so the money I spend on this will go a long way toward my marketing efforts and branding. I can even design labels for others, too, and make a few dollars helping them present a professional image, too, all with state of the art gadget gifts I use in the comfort of my home.
