The Geek Store - Top Ten Cheap Geeky Gifts under $20

Updated on August 31, 2013

Get your Geek on Right Here!

The definition of a Geek differs slightly between sources and some seem to confuse a Geek with a Nerd.

A Geek, in my opinion, is someone who not only likes a particular thing, he or she is bordering on an obsession! That being said, it isn't bad and almost everyone has a little Geek in them.

Whether you like something strange or just a lof of one object, you can be a Geek. I like mechanical things so I am "Geekily Mechanically Inclined."

This little website has several objects that you can either buy for yourself or for your fellow Geeks. All are intended for the budget-minded and are under $20.00.

Have fun shopping and please don't play with the images!

On the 13th Day of Christmas, My Geek Love Gave to Me...

When I went to High School, we didn't have Nerds or Geeks. In my school, they were just known as the Chess Club kids.

I was in the Chess Club, but was never considered a Geek. Nowadays, I am probably Geekier than most. Is "Geekier" really a word?

Whether you admit you're a Geek or not, you probably know many Geeks. I know several as I used to work in the computer field. However, Geeks are not limited to computers, many that I know just love gadgets. Remember Inspector Gadget and the saying, "Go Go Gadget Arms?" If you do, you are probably a Geek.

Was MacGyver a Geek? He was probably the biggest Geek on television several decades ago. I still watch those shows as he always does some interesting things that I missed in previous reruns.

Whether you are a Geek or not, you need some Geek Stuff. Hopefully you will find it here!
