giftwrapped

Ready for giving

Giftwrapped (also gift-wrapped or gift wrapped) describes something covered in decorative paper, ribbon, or other festive wrapping, typically for giving as a present.

Beyond the literal sense, giftwrapped suggests something presented in an especially appealing or convenient form: The prosecutor had a giftwrapped case with three eyewitnesses.

If an opportunity comes giftwrapped, it arrives ready to take advantage of with minimal effort.
