A Different Type Of Gifting*

ByLisa Jayne 



Who loves giving presents? Me! I think Christmas is my favourite time of the year just to be able to give presents. I love nothing more than working out who I’m going to buy for, what to get them, and then finding fun creative ways to wrap them. But with Christmas still a good 8 months away now, it’s obviously not really the season of goodwill and giving anymore. It’s got me thinking, why just give gifts at Christmas? Why can’t we give gifts all year round? Why not look into giving gift experiences, the type of gift you can give all year round.




Gift experiences are proving to be an increasingly popular choice when it comes to giving gifts. I used to think of gift experiences as crazy expensive, but these days with websites such as Into The Blue running regular promotions, it’s possible to give gift experiences all year round. 




One of the most popular gift experiences are spa days. A day of luxury and pampering that you might not usually treat yourself or loved one too because you’re worried about the usual price tag that comes with it. But with gift experiences you can purchase a day of pampering for a reasonable price, or if you prefer, a range of beauty treatments on their own.




One of the best parts of gift experiences is that you’re able to buy things like restaurant vouchers. Some of the most sought after dining locations in the country have created packages and set meals for as little as £30, giving you the option to experience restaurants you may not usually be able to afford. It’s not just dining experiences, but theres also experiences such as cookery classes, and wine tasting experiences.




Recent research shows that people prefer experience gifts as opposed to traditional gifts, making them a more cost effective gift at the end of the day. What do you think of experience day gifts? Do you prefer them over traditional gifts?

    February Goals

    It’s been a while since I’ve done any monthly goals, in fact October was the last time I set any, and even then I failed pretty badly on them. So with a new year, and a new month, I thought it would be a good time to reset some goals for the month ahead, and hopefully I’ll managed to…

    25 Before 25

    Taking inspiration from Bex’s blog I decided to come up with a list of 25 things I want to do before I turn 25. Although I’m only actually going to be 23 this year, I still wanted to take part in this, and it gives me something to aim for! In May 2016 I’ll turn 25, and…

    Quitting Sugar

    A few months ago I wrote a post on how I wanted to give up chocolate, and guess what? I failed. And why did I fail? Because I’m a sugar addict, a complete and utter sugar addict.  As I mentioned in my giving up chocolate post, my addiction has got out of control. It’s not just…

    The End

    The past week has been a crazy up and down ride for me. After three long years, I finally finished my degree and handed in my dissertation on Thursday. I can’t believe that I managed to write something this long, especially after all the hassles I had with it, but I did! University has been an up…
