Gift for Your Competitive Sister
Looking for a funny gift or joke present for your competitive 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 competitive 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.

Competitive personalities thrive on challenges they can conquer and brag about later, so harder puzzles become badges of honour worth the struggle.

She's always posting outfit achievements online. Now she'll earn that new wardrobe upgrade the hard way, no shortcuts allowed.
Frustration guaranteed. Could take 30-90 minutes.
Word Quest
Perfect for someone who keeps score at family gatherings. A coffee break she'll actually have to work for feels delightfully ironic.
A proper challenge. Expect 10-30 minutes of puzzling.
Grid Treasure Hunt
She's constantly sharing her superior music taste. Let's see how her perfectionism handles the ultimate puzzle before accessing those premium playlists.
Maximum suffering. 2-5 hours of pure struggle.
Word Quest
Even competitive sisters need victories sometimes. But she'll still know you made her work for it, which is petty enough.
A gentle warm-up. Expect 5-15 minutes of puzzling.
Ready to Level the Playing Field?
Give your competitive sister a challenge she can't one-up you on. For once, you'll be the one watching her struggle with a smile.
Create Your Gag GiftHow 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:
Wait until she's bragging about something she's achieved, then interrupt with 'Oh, speaking of challenges...' and present the gift with a knowing smile.
The perfect line when handing it over:
“I wrapped your gift card in a little challenge. You love those, right?”
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:
“Don't worry, I'm sure you'll beat your personal best time. Eventually.”
“Funny how the overachiever suddenly goes quiet when there's no leaderboard to check.”
“I'd offer to help, but watching you lose gracefully is too entertaining.”
“Only took you that long? I expected better from someone so accomplished.”
