With 1$, what is the best thing to buy online?
I'm getting ahead for Christmas, and I'm planning to give presents to friends and clients, but this year I want to get to the most people possible.
Any ideas of a good deal/product ? To give to developers, entrepreneurs and hackers in general

- MildlySerious 10y agoMaybe the Humble Book Bundle[1]. I would encourage paying at least $5, but you can buy it for $1 and it's worth the mention I think. https://www.humblebundle.com/books/code-your-own-games-book-bundle https://www.humblebundle.com/books/code-your-own-games-book-...

- anexprogrammer 10y agoPay $1 or $2 to a homeless person, and spend 5 minutes talking to them. Do this a few times and you'll find most of them probably deserve a little dignity.

- RUG3Y 10y agoI don't feel that a $1 gift is an insult if the gift is thoughtful or unexpected. Isn't it the "thought that counts", rather than the value of the gift?
- brudgers 10y agoTrue. Nevertheless, someone might see the thought here as "$1".
- jklein11 10y agoAssuming OP is in the US, postage alone would be ~46 cents. If you consider stationary/envelopes etc. this will likely cost more than $1 a piece. Not to mention the opportunity cost of writing the notes. I think the OP may need to reconsider their budget.

- tyingq 10y agoThere are a few web-to-snail-mail services that are $1 for letters to US addresses, including paper, envelope, etc. http://www.labnol.org/internet/email/send-postal-letters-on-internet-via-email/7097/ http://www.labnol.org/internet/email/send-postal-letters-on-...
