Christmas is coming! Have you done your Christmas shopping yet?

Blog Post #3

Christmas is just around the corner again and if you are anything like me you are wondering where this year has gone and it has come time to start thinking about what we are going to get our loved ones. Every year this task seems to get harder and harder and with all of the new gadgets coming out there is so much choice out there. What is more frustrating is the moral dilemma between risking the chance of buying something that someone either already has and keeping the surprise or asking them what they want but this loses the essence of what Christmas is supposed to be about.

The best but least creative present always seems to be money. With the Boxing day sales only 1 day later and the peace of mind knowing that you always give someone something they want, giving a loved one money always seems to hit the spot. I know money is my gift of choice when anyone asks me what I want for Christmas as it always helpful to get a bit of cash around that time of the year and I tend to go a bit crazy at the sales to deck myself out with new clothes.

Just by looking at all of the people that flock to Boxing Day sales every year its pretty clear that its the common consensus that people take all of their Christmas cash and try and get themselves a bargain. With sales offering anywhere from 50-90% off it seems like the logical idea to wait until this crazy day to stock up.

With technology getting so good these days and more stores moving online with more competitive prices, is it likely that this will be the end to our Boxing Day adventures or do we still want the thrill of the chase battling it out with thousands of other like minded people?

My personal opinion is that from now on I think I will stay at home and make all of my purchases online. With new facilities like being able to send people gifts through Paypal and online gift certificates it makes it so much more convenient to get what you want from the comfort of your own home.

We will be making some digital vouchers for our site if you would like to give your loved ones something different this year for Christmas. If you are interested in finding out more about this please email us or contact us on Facebook .

A quick update for our site, we have made our first order and our photoshoot is scheduled for next weekend. We should be live for purchases as of next week so please standby!

Thanks for all of your support and we will be running a few more giveaways for our launch.
