About

From humble beginnings in a small bedroom, Blink Gifts was born in 2006 as an online gift shop. In 2008 our success meant that we needed more space and decided to open our first gift shop in Leigh, Lancashire on Twist Lane.

In October 2009 Blink Gifts registered as a Limited company and also became VAT registered our company registration and VAT numbers can be found on our Contact us page.

Blink Gifts was created because we knew how difficult it could be to source the perfect gift.   Thinking back to a recent birthday or last Christmas can you genuinely remember what you were given and who from?  To the staff at Blink Gifts personalised gifts mean so much more and we believe you will agree if you have been the recipient of a personalised gift you will always remember who bought it for you and when.

Having a retail outlet in Leigh near Wigan in the Greater Manchester Area area means that customers can visit our shop and wait whilst their specially chosen gift is being personalised.  Alternatively customers can order online and collect in person from our shop.

Blink Gifts pride ourselves in our fast turnaround offering a wide range of quality gifts and doing our utmost to continually source the best quality products available. Many of our gifts can be engraved with a picture, not just lettering. The final personalised gift makes a wonderful keepsake, perfect for any occasion.

Please take a moment to visit our customer feedback page or look at our eBay shop and read our customer comments. You will see that your satisfaction is important to us; in fact, we know our success depends on it.

Why did you name the business Blink Gifts?

When we first started our business we were selling photo gifts and needed a name that was easy to remember, easy to spell and short enough for a web address. 

Choosing the name Blink Gifts seemed to be the obvious choice, blink is something we all do and to us it represents the actions of a camera shutter in other words a camera captures an image in the blink of an eye.  In the early days everything created by Blink Gifts involved printers and ink, hence the name for us just had to be Blink.

Photo gifts in the blink of an eye, blink and they're gone... on a rapid journey to your front door!
