This trading guide is written for those who are just starting and have never used the bookmarklet programs for gifting. Special thanks goes to the Kingpin Trading Market as their note inspired this article.

In order to send someone a gift, you must be on their mafia wars profile page and be a member of their mafia. If you find yourself constantly scrolling through facebook profile pages to find posted wishlists and become irritated when you discover there isn't one than the "switch" bookmarklet is for you. With this tool, you can now get to any MW profile with one click. If you aren't familiar with using bookmarklet programs, read my blog entry on that subject. Follow the instruction below to set this program up.

1. Go to the Spockholm Mafia Tools website

2. Locate the Switch Bookmarklet (the word switch inside a blue box) and point your mouse on top of it.

3. Right click, hold, move to your bookmarklet holding area and release (known as dragging).

4. Go to any facebook profile.

5. Find the Switch Bookmarklet now saved on your computer and click on it.

6. You should now be on that persons mafia wars profile page and if they are in your mafia, you can send them a gift.

You should feel happy that you made it to the right place but your mood can quickly change if you don't see the send gift option. It's now time to use the JAddToMW bookmarklet.

1. Go to Josh Miller's Bookmarklets website

2. Locate the JAddToMW bookmarklet, read the notes next to it, and follow the same steps for Switch

3. Go to your mafia wars recruiting page

4. Click on JAddToMW

After all this you should feel ready to send your gift. Once again you can find yourself irritated if you discover the item you want to send is not on your friends wishlist. Instead of giving up and secretly wishing to punch this person in the face, use the Chucker bookmarklet.

1. Go to Arun's Mafia Wars Helpers

2. Locate the Chucker Bookmarklet, instead of boxes like the above bookmarks, this one is underlined.

3. Drag to you bookmarks.

4. Go to your friends mafia wars profile page

5. Click on the chucker bookmarklet once and wait for the screen to unframe.

6. Click on this one more time and the program will appear.

7. Locate the item (s) you want to send in either the loot, collection, or boost drop bars, enter the quantity, and press the add to queue button.

8. Change the time delay to 3 seconds

9. Press start and the gifts will be sent.

If you need to send a large number of items and than the Wishlist Chucker is for you. There are a few differences between these programs. The recipient must have the item(s) on their wishlist. This program is much faster than the Chucker.

1. Follow steps 1-6 above but use the Wishlist Chucker instead.

2. Enter the number of times you would like this gift to be sent.

3. Click the Start Chucking button.
