It appears that you can now give and receive App Store purchases. According to a MacRumors report, the Cupertino crew are notifying iTunes shoppers — via a Terms and Conditions box — that the option to “Gift” items has extended to the App Store, meaning you can finally hit someone with a copy of Plants vs. Zombies or even the equally addictive pseudo-tower defense game Trenches.

After taking the prompt to do so, you’ll have to wade through a few menus and give the answer to important questions like “what’s the recievers’ e-mail?” and “do you want to send a message?” We suggest putting down “LL Cool J” in the latter box simply because, well, you can. Why wouldn’t you?
