The cheekiest gift cards

Gift for Your Annoying Sister

Looking for a funny gift or joke present for your annoying sister? Here's an idea: don't just give them a gift card. Make them work for it.

What Is a Joke Gift Card?

PettyPresent lets you send real gift cards wrapped in puzzle games. Your sister receives a link, but they have to solve the puzzle before they can see their gift card code. A novelty present with real value.

Perfect for your annoying sister. The gift card is real - they get full value once they complete the puzzle. You choose the difficulty from Easy to Extreme. A funny gift that's actually useful.

Make Your Sister Actually Earn Something

Finally, a gift that makes her work for it instead of just taking what she wants. Plus you get front-row seats to the struggle.

How to Present the Gift

Half the fun of a joke gift is the presentation. You can send the puzzle link by text or email, but for maximum impact, consider presenting it in person so you can watch their reaction in real-time.

Here's a suggested approach for revealing the gag gift to your sister:

Present it during family dinner when everyone's watching. Make a big show of how much thought went into it.

The perfect line when handing it over:

I put as much effort into wrapping this as you put into returning my jumpers.

Things to Say While They're Playing

If you're watching them play the puzzle (which we highly recommend), you'll want some good lines ready for different moments. Here are some suggestions for each stage of their struggle:

When starting

Oh good, you're attempting it. I wasn't sure you'd have the patience.

When struggling

Funny how advice is easier to give than puzzles are to solve, isn't it?

When raging

Deep breaths. Maybe think of it as character building. You're welcome.

When finishing

Only took you that long? I had money on twice as much time.

How It Works

Creating a joke gift takes about 2 minutes. Here's the process:

  1. 1

    Pick from brands like Amazon, PlayStation, Spotify, and more and select any amount from £5 to £200.

  4. 4

    Send the link

    Pay £2.99 + the gift card value. Your recipient gets a unique link. They solve the puzzle to unlock their gift card code.
