What are some small gifts I can ship to an overseas friend (in Australia) that are unique to America?

Posted by admin on February 24th, 2010 and filed under chocolate gifts | 6 Comments »

A dear friend of mine is in Australia (after moving from London) and just for the fun of it I want to send him a small (small) box of unique gifts. I have considered local chocolate samples & crayola crayons, but I am drawing a blank after that. Are there some people who have traveled and can clue me in on items that aren’t easy to find in Australia?

We have crayola crayons in Australia.

I do know your chocolate is different, but we have specialty lolly shops that sell things from around the world.

While not cheap things like Levi jeans are really expensive in Australia.

Australia is becoming so Americanised that I can’t think of a thing, besides the chocolate bars. Just be carefull with food as our quarantine is very strict.

    Hey,how about build a custom polymer clay doll looks like him(her)?
    you can order online and sent it to your friend directly by express.
    It’s a kinds of doll which look the same with photos (nearly over 80% similar) and your detailed requests.
    I sent some for my friends, it is a big surprise and they all love it so much!
