Handy holiday picks

For the homemaker, the DIYer dad and the whole family, check out these gift ideas from Handyman Do It Best Home Center (Handyman):

 A neat and orderly individual will love storage cases (with lavender scent) to keep clothes and bed linens in. The plastic EZ2 containers will keep kids’ toys, shoes and other household items. After the homemaker tidies up the clutter, a nice warm bath courtesy of Alpha-Lotus quality water heater is a refreshing reward.

For your best friend’s new place this new year, a Philips handheld vacuum cleaner or a cordless phone makes an ideal housewarming-cum-holiday gift. At Handyman, the GE Cordless Phone 27923 and Alpha locksets are on a buy-one, take-one promo.

A LED light keychain from Energizer is also a practical gift, and get 20 percent off when you buy selected Energizer products from Handyman.

For the whole family, check out the twin-size Pillow Rest airbed from Intex while a heavy-duty stainless pneumatic stool is ideal for your brother or sister. An anti-gravity lounge chair plus citronella candles, meanwhile, will help give someone a much-needed rest.

Your loyal canines also deserve treats this Christmas: a Bow Wow dog chow (with free one kilo for every purchase of a 20-kg. dog food).

For the man of the house, a durable set of power tools is the perfect present: a Black & Decker grinder, which comes with free diamond cutter with each purchase; a cordless screwdriver from Bosch (with 25 percent off) or Skil (which offers free Skil accessories set).

You will never go wrong by giving Handyman gift certificates and electronic gift certificates available at customer service counters at P1,000 (card), P500 and P100 denominations. And for every P5,000 worth of single-receipt purchase of selected Philips handheld vacuum cleaner and iron, you get a P500 gift certificate for free.
