Can Windshield Wipers Make the Perfect Holiday Gift?

Are you searching for the perfect last minute gift to get someone, or even just trying to think of something that you need for yourself, and can’t seem to figure out what it is? The truth is, anytime you are trying to think about a gift for someone, or something to add to your own list, it can be difficult, especially if a list isn’t already laid out for you. Because they are essential to a driver being able to see and then getting safely to their destination, windshield wipers can make the perfect holiday gift, and be something that is untraditional and outside of the box. Are windshield wipers just the thing you need to purchase to finalize your holiday shopping?

How Often do Windshield Wipers Need Replaced?

We get it. Before you head out to the store to grab a new set of wipers to wrap for someone special in your life, you may need a little convincing that they can actually make the perfect gift. When it comes to gift giving, one of the main things people often think about is if the gift they are giving will be used. When it comes to wipers, if you have a person who is a driver in your life and has a vehicle, they will use these little rain wiping devices, and likely don’t find it the most satisfying purchase to buy for themselves.

The basic rule for how often you should replace your windshield wipers is every six to twelve months. Keep in mind, depending on where you live and how often you drive, you may need to replace them sooner. Having windshield wipers that work as they should is essential for all drivers, not just the one behind the vehicle you are buying them for.

If you are looking for a gift for someone in a cold weather region, this is the perfect time to get them a new set of wipers. The cold, ice, and snow can cause their wipers to deteriorate even faster and visibility is much worse in the winter months due to the elements. That special person may need new wipers and wouldn’t even think about changing them without your gift. Wipers keep windshields free from rain, dust, pollen and other air-borne debris all year round, and, when temperatures drop below zero, they work even harder to keep the view free of snow and ice to give the best possible visibility.

Can Windshield Wipers Make the Perfect Holiday Gift?

Most people don’t find buying vehicle maintenance items for themselves very exciting, so giving them something they need and will actually use, can be just what they require to ensure they have clear visibility when driving. How can windshield wipers make the perfect holiday gift?

  • Vehicle Maintenance: Most drivers don’t think about replacing their wipers, until they have an issue with seeing as they drive down the road. The truth is, people usually wait much too long to replace them, and that can be dangerous. By gifting them to someone, you are helping them keep up with the maintenance of their vehicle and giving them something that they may find less than thrilling to get for themselves. It also helps to serve as a reminder that their wipers may need replaced.
  • Out of the Box: We highly doubt that when most people go to open a gift, they expect to see windshield wipers. This is a gift that is out of the box and creative. While gift cards are great and all, your gift of windshield wipers is something that will be sure to leave people talking about. Who knows, you may even give them an idea for a perfect holiday gift for someone else in their lives.
  • Easy to Wrap: We know, the shape of wipers may be hard to put wrapping paper around; however, they are relatively small and easy to transport and store. Lots of vehicle components are large and bulky and aren’t the easiest thing to give to someone. Giving a person wipers versus tires is much more practical.
  • Everyone Needs Them: When a person has a vehicle, they need wipers. There is no exception to this rule. Every driver needs to see. The key to gifting the right wipers is making sure you know the make, model, and year of the person’s vehicle, so you can be sure to get them a set that works for their car, truck, or SUV. Windshield wipers aren’t the type of gift that are just going to end up in an attic or back closet somewhere, they will need to be used.
