Talk about mobile gift vouchers.
Mobile gift vouchers you can send by phone are very commonplace these days.
It's a service that lets you easily send gifts to anyone over the phone.
When you send someone a voucher, the recipient can take it to a store and exchange it for goods.
In other cases, the person can type in their address.
The gift is then delivered to their front door.
Every day, a wider variety of gifts you can send this way.
It's very convenient, because it makes gift-giving a breeze.

Talk about gifts you have received on your phone.
Just like everyone else these days, I've received quite a few gifts on my phone.
The most common gifts I have received are coffee vouchers.
My friends and acquaintances send them to express their gratitude.
I also send my share of them to others.
I especially get a boatload of these vouchers on my birthday.
