Last Minute Gifts FAQs

What are some good last-minute gifts?

The best last minute gift is the one they’ll never see coming. Forget about boring gifts like socks and gift cards, and think about what the person you're getting a gift for has always wanted to do. Have they always wanted to go sailing or try out virtual reality? Then a suitable experience day would be perfect. Or perhaps a special mug that signifies a milestone could be the ideal gift.

What is a good casual gift? If you’re looking to keep it low-key, look for gifts that are equally as practical as they are thoughtful and fun. If your gift recipient is a social butterfly, perhaps get them an engaging board or card game that everyone can join in with. Or maybe this is the perfect time to buy an amusing gift that’ll finally pull the leg of the jokester in your life.

What is a thoughtful last-minutegift?

Thoughtful gifts are those that say a lot, showing the recipient just how much you care and how you’ve thought about a gift that they will love. From personalised keepsakes and sentimental items to experience days that make them feel on top of the world and thoughtful gifts that tell them how much they are appreciated.
