Finding a gift is not always easy, and it becomes even harder when having to choose the best gifts for sports fanatics.

For this reason, we will go through the best gifts for the sports-loving customers to win them, thank them, and ultimately, strengthen the relationship with them.

Other than giving a sign of appreciation to them from time to time, it’s a fantastic way to build stronger professional relationships, and that’s why it’s essential to choose a gift that matches what they like.

Whether you’re looking for sports gifts for men or personalised gifts for football players, you’re in the right place.


Parkland Lookout Small Fitness Bag – $34.99

The Parkland Small Bag is a beautifully designed bag in which your customers will be able to fit everything they can think of when going to the gym.

It is available in different colours and styles, which is great for both ladies and is one of the best sports gifts for men.

Also, Parkland offers a lifetime warranty on this bag, and it was made from 10 recycled plastic water bottles.


Bull and Stash Market Notebook – $45.00

A notebook is often seen as an office gift for customers. However, it can be one of the personalised sports gifts for him.

In fact, you can do many things with a notebook and it is much more useful than we might think. For instance, your customers could use this notebook to write football results, fitness programs, and much more.

What we really like about Bull and Stash notebook is the fact that it is made from real and high-quality leather and that it has 2 card slots.


Kinto Travel Tumbler – $37.00

A travel bottle is actually one of the best gifts for sports fanatics because it allows them to bring water, water-soluble vitamins, or even energetic drinks when going to the gym. Rest assured that your customers will actually use your gift!

This will also save many plastic bottles and that’s just great for the planet!


Le Cord Earphones – $39.00

If there’s one thing that motivates the sports fanatics when exercising, it has to be music.

Whether your customers go hit the gym, play a football or basketball match or simply go for a run outside; this is one of the best sports gifts for men and women.

Apart from being a good gift, it has remote functionalities such as skipping tracks, answering calls, and pausing the music, which makes it even more exceptional for workouts.

It also comes with a storage bag so your customers won’t have to worry about where to put their brand new gift. Who doesn’t want to listen to their favourite music on Soundcloud while working out?


Naxa Waterproof Action Camera – $43.43

On a more different note, the Naxa Waterproof Action Camera is actually a fantastic gift for sports fanatics.

With the influence of collecting memories and sharing on social media nowadays, having a portable action camera could be very practical.

The Naxa comes at a much cheaper price tag and the quality is still good. For instance, other than capturing 4K footage, it also shoots slow-motion and 16MP images!


Fitbit Charge 4 – $169.95

Fitbit is one of the best gifts for guys who love football but also for women who like to practice Yoga or fitness.

It is undoubtedly one of the best corporate gifts to give and it is so practical that your customers won’t want to leave their house without it.

Firstly, it has a built-in GPS and a 24/7 heart rate that’s very useful to track your activity all day long, and your quality of sleep during the night. Just like the other Fitbit products, it can be synchronised with the smartphone app to see your workout all the way till the end.

Secondly, it is water-resistant which is one of the best gifts for sports fanatics because your customers will be able to wear it while swimming.

Lastly, its battery lasts up to 7 days which is really impressive for a smartwatch of such a size.


Monbento Original Lunch Box – $42.00

The Monbento lunch box is an excellent gift for sports-loving customers when they are at work. Unlike the other items, it is handy to take with them to the office.

Whether they want to lose weight or gain muscle, they’ll be able to fit some delicious and healthy meals to work.

This is one of the best personalised company gifts with its many different styles available and it is also microwave and dishwasher safe.


Why Give a Gift to Your Sports Loving Customer?

Just like Gemnote mentioned it several times, it is important to give gifts to your customers to keep a pleasant and smooth relationship.

Of course, it is not mandatory and it’s certainly not something that you should be doing regularly. However, a gift is a powerful tool to win customers and you should definitely send them some freebies from time to time.

Other than winning customers and building a stronger relationship, a gift for your sports-loving customers will also remind them of you every time they go and hit the gym, which always plays in your favour.

Buying and giving gifts is harder than you might think. A lot of people dread having to go Christmas shopping in the later year, and God forbid anyone has a birthday coming up. It doesn’t help that a lot of people don’t know what they want to receive, and thus we’re desperately left to scrabble for a good idea to invest in.

If you’re the kind of person who dreads that scenario, this post is here to save you. After all, we’re not all gifted with the gift of…gift giving, and it’s time to change that! Here’s a couple of ideas that’ll hopefully spark some inspiration in you when the time comes to impress your friends and family with how well you know them.

Focus on Transport

Transport is an important part of life as we need to commute to work and go out, or meet our friends and travel for a good holiday when we want. And there’s plenty of gifts you can buy within this sector that are both practical and nice to receive. A traincard, for example, or a year long bus ticket that’ll take them all around a certain region. Or maybe even pay for their first 5 or so driving lessons. These will help make transport less of a hassle here.

If they have got a personal transport, you’ve got a bit more freedom here. You’re probably not going to be able to afford exactly what your mom wants; after all, cars are expensive, and you just can’t fork out for one on a whim! But you can still buy some practical items that can customise their old one, or signify that a bigger gift is coming in the future. You could even tell your mother that you’re going to try and ‘Find your Perfect Private Number Plate!’, and let her start rolling around town in style.

Find Some Clothes

If you want to buy someone a gift that’s going to keep on giving, try investing in the clothes department. Whatever you pick out here is going to serve someone for a few years to come (as long as you know the general themes of what someone else likes when it comes to their style).

Socks are an especially good gift to give, as long as your giftee is over the age of 18. Kids don’t tend to be all that impressed by such a mundane item, but adults love them. You can get creative patterns and funny slogans on them as well, so there’s something for everyone.

Actually, accessories as an overall work well here- hats and scarves are always nice touches, especially if you have your knitting skill to put to good use; and everyone loves to open a box and see jewellery inside it. Necklaces, bracelets, earrings, whatever!

Give some great gifts this year, whenever you need to, by using guides like this as your steering wheel. People often don’t know what they’d like to receive, so make your gift good enough to show them!

I’m pretty sure everyone has heard of the Italian brand, MOMO. In fact, if you’re a car enthusiast, it is highly likely that you would more or less have heard of their car accessories. What about MOMO Design? Have you ever heard of them? In case you wondering, MOMO Design is related to MOMO. In fact, MOMO Design was founded as the Style Center of MOMO in 1981. The company soon evolved out of the racing world, with its new found mission of fusing technology and aesthetical value for lifestyle products.
MOMO Design watches are one of the historical products that helped defined the company image. Highly innovated materials – carbon fiber, titanium, and magnesium – in combination with unique and industrial design, MOMO Design watches have found their appreciative followers. As of today, the brand’s line includes Pilot, Magnesium, Essenziale, Diver, Speed, and Jet.

Well, I currently have one MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series] for sale.

From Momo Designer Watch

This MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series] that I currently have is Brand New In Box and Never Worn Before. The reason why I am selling away this watch is because I already own a very good watch [an Omega Seamaster] and I don’t have the need for another watch. As a matter of fact, I won this watch from a competition that I participated in.

Here’s 5 Reasons Why You Should Buy the MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series] From Me:

1). MOMO Design Watches are extremely rare to find in Singapore and so far, I haven’t seen anybody wearing a MOMO Design Watch. If you dislike having the same fashion accessories as anybody else, getting a MOMO Watch might be a good idea to pamper yourself this festive season.

2). Retail stores are selling the MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series] for SGD $480 while I’m selling it for SGD $350. That’s SGD $130 off the retail price and you probably can’t find the same MOMO Design Watch that sells at the price which I am offering!

3). The MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series] comes with a 2-Years Warranty till September 2014!

4). The MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series] is brand new and never worn before.

5). I can deliver the watch to the place of your convenience anytime.

Having said and shown so much about the MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series], if you are interested in purchasing this watch from me, do kindly drop me an email at melvin.ocs@gmail.com and I will return your email the soonest. If you’re planning to get a gift for someone this festive season, you might want to consider getting this MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series].

Also, I only have this one MOMO Design Watch [Jet Chrono Series] to sell. If you are really interested, kindly drop me an email ASAP as it is only available while stocks last.

Stay tuned to more updates from us!

God bless!

Hello Everyone,
here is the much anticipated entry about what we did for Christmas and the places we visited.

24th December Christmas Eve:

Well, Baby and I both met up around 1000hours and we headed to Suntec City for breakfast! So our first breakfast for the day was the hearty MacDonald’s Breakfast Meal. And so after which, we went up to the Toys R Us Store to shop for Serene’s Baby Shower Gift [the reason why we specially went to Suntec City]. We got the 2-in-1 Baby Walker which cost about $49.95 and then went back down to buy Royce Chocolate for Ruby’s Christmas present.

From Christmas 2011
From Christmas 2011

So having gotten all the presents, we headed to Klapsons Boutique Hotel where we stayed for a night. We initially thought of Studio M but having seen some really positive reviews about Klapsons, we decided to give it a try. By the way, Klapsons was Baby’s suggestion and we were glad we chose Klapsons over Studio M. You will see why in the following photographs:

This is the Lobby Area and the designs are really contemporary, modern, and chic

From Christmas 2011
From Christmas 2011

And this is their Front Desk Counter which is shaped like a globe and yes, its real water that you see below the structure

From Christmas 2011

And for us, we gotten the Executive Room. This is a picture of the washroom

From Christmas 2011

The room itself and yes it comes with a JBL iPod Docking Station

From Christmas 2011

The shower room which comes with Molten Brown shower amenities

And yes, you can actually have a look at the streets while showering. I’m not sure if the people could see inside from the outside but I am sure we can see outside from the inside..

From Christmas 2011

The sky shower is really fascinating because you can change the colour of the lighting while you shower and listen to the radio at the same time.

From Christmas 2011

Some other bathroom amenities

From Christmas 2011

Oh, and I love their slippers. Its well-cushioned and feels so fluffy and warm.

From Christmas 2011

Mini Bar is complimentary! Comes with a can of coke, sprite, a bottle of tiger beer, fruit juice, and a packet of potato chips.

From Christmas 2011

And yes, the room comes with an expresso machine as well!

From Christmas 2011

Our room came with an external balcony but unfortunately, we didn’t get to use it as it was raining.

From Christmas 2011

The room comes with a flat screen TV, complimentary local calls, and even has a stationery set! Oh, and yes, there’s complimentary internet wifi connection as well!

From Christmas 2011
From Christmas 2011

Alright, this is quite impressive and a stunner. This card holder holds our room keys and even has a personalised welcome message upon our arrival.

From Christmas 2011

As you can see, Klapsons is a rather nice boutique hotel with lots of amenities and the service rendered is similar to that offered at Fullerton Hotel Singapore [I’m comparing with Fullerton because I used to work there]. By the way, Klapsons have 17 rooms and they are all designed differently from one another, like the New Majestic Hotel in Chinatown. The target customer of Klapsons is mainly corporate guests so room rates are actually cheaper during the weekends than during the weekdays. And yes, I cannot emphasize this enough, the service is very personalised and is similar to that of 5 stars hotels. In fact, many of the amenities that are available at Klapsons are only available in suites of 5 stars hotels which cost a few thousands for a night’s stay. So, do check out what Klapsons have to offer and do book early as they are always fully booked!

So, I planned the rest of the programme for the night of Christmas Eve, and for our dinner, we dined at Pizza Hut at Serangoon NeX Shopping Mall. Thanks to my brother, Alvin, whom sponsored us complimentary vouchers to dine there.

Yes, we had all of the above at Pizza Hut for free. Thanks to my really sweet brother!

And following which, as the surprise that I had planned for Baby could only take place at 2140 hours and it was only 1930hours after we had our dinner, I had to delay some time and we literally combed through the whole of NeX Shopping Mall. Thankfully, this took up quite a lot of time.

We went to the Pet Lover’s Centre to look at Pets!

And we saw this Chinchilla which is really cute.

When it was about time, I revealed my surprise for Baby and yes, I treated her to the Mission Impossible Movie at the Shaw Premiere Cinema, which is equivalent to GV’s Gold Class Cinema.

The seats are extremely cool! Its fully automatic and even has a button where you can press and call for a service staff to attend to you.

Baby filling up the lucky draw coupons. Really pray hard that we will be able to win the grand prize of a Macbook Air! =P

From Christmas 2011

Yes, you saw it right, we had a mini countdown party in the cinema theatre and were each served a glass of complimentary champagne.

From Christmas 2011
From Christmas 2011

While I must say that the service provided by the Premiere team were outstanding, I can’t say the same for the ticketing team. In fact, we were utterly disappointed with them and have emailed our feedback regarding this issue. Hopefully, we will be able to hear from them soon.

So after our movie, we headed to Ang Mo Kio Police Station to give Alvin a Christmas surprise! Baby and I were standing outside the Police Station wondering how best to surprise Alvin but in the end, because we looked really suspicious, our surprise gave way but nonetheless, we were glad to have cheered Alvin up, especially when he is on duty on Christmas eve just to protect our city. Hence, that’s what we did for Christmas Eve and there will probably be two more entries along the way so stay tuned~!

Hello Everyone,
I believe Christmas this year must have been an exciting time for all of us. For the both of us personally, we pretty much enjoyed ourselves over the last few days as it was the first time that we spent Christmas together. Well, in this blog entry and the next few entries, we are going to share with you what we did for Christmas and the various gifts we bought for one another, and you might perhaps be able to use some of these ideas in future for birthdays, Valentine’s day, or any other special occasion.

Before we begin this entry, we would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Jason for winning the GV Christmas Gift Card worth $35.

So, prior to Christmas, Baby and I were planning what to give to each other. And so, my very first present for Christmas from Baby was a NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® Piccolo™. Well, being coffee lovers ourselves, Baby decided that this present was ideal as we could both share and use it. Excited about using this coffee-making machine, we set it up and tried playing around with the machine.

As a professional Barista, I must say that this coffee-making machine is definitely ideal for home and travel use as it is compact and extremely portable. The professional 15-bar pressure system which is present in the machine [and is similar to the coffee-making machines of Starbucks or Coffee Bean], is the main key to the perfect cup of coffee. However, this machine alone will not make you the same standard of coffee beverage that is served at Starbucks. Coffee-making is an art and it requires skillful combination of milk and coffee to make that perfect cup of coffee.

If you’re just an average coffee drinker whom often goes to Starbucks and not a serious coffee connoisseur, then you might just want to consider getting this machine as it comes with 4 complimentary boxes [of different coffee flavour/type] for you to make different types of coffee, all of that which cost $199 at major retailers. Not only that, it is easy to maintain and clean, and it comes with warranty as well. This will save you huge amounts of money from frequenting Starbucks. If you’re thinking of what to get as a gift for your loved ones, this might just be a perfect gift!

For more information about NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® and their products, check out their facebook page <–

In our next few entries, we would be sharing with you more about our Christmas experience at Klapsons Boutique Hotel, Shaw Premiere Cinema, and the various gifts that we got for one another, so stay tuned!
