Thanks for dropping by and checking out TicaToca. I (being Ronnie) created and launched TicaToca with Andrew (co-founder) in August 2009 because a friend asked me a question that I didn't have the answer to:
'Where can I buy a gift that's unique and not on the high street?'
After spending hours flicking through blogs and online stores I came a'croppa and gave up. It's not that there aren't cool, unique gifts out there; the problem I found is being able to go to one place that shared a collection of unique and, in some cases, one-off gifts that were easy to find and purchase.
When I spoke to a few people about it, I quickly realised that finding unique gifts came as a bit of a frustration to some people, so, me being a web designer put pen to paper and designed, built (Andrew built it, not me!) and launched TicaToca as part of our 5149 side project.
