Be honest; we’ve all done it. Unwrapped a Christmas present, only to choke back a gasp of horror at what lies beneath the festive paper.
Nothing beats a well-chosen gift (from someone who knows you inside and out, and has been listening to the hints you’ve been dropping all year).
But then there are the long shots. When a well-meaning relative takes a stab, and buys you perfume/clothing/books they think you might like. The thought is there, but personal taste is just that; personal.
Some people think it’s boring to buy gift vouchers, but think again… when you buy someone vouchers, you’re essentially getting them exactly what they want!
No more faked cries of glee, no more guiltily carting unwanted pressies to the charity shop come the New Year. Perfect.
I was given the chance to put some High Street Vouchers to the test. My heart told me to stock up on some of my favourite Benefit cosmetics at Boots, but my head told me to be practical (boooo!).
So I bowled up to Argos to buy some fancy under-bed storage boxes, in an attempt to to fulfil my New Year’s resolution of getting this house organised (before the next batch of resolutions is due!).
The vouchers were so easy to use – I just presented them at the counter, and they were deducted from the total. There was a small balance remaining, which I simply paid with my card.
HIGH STREET GIFT VOUCHERS can be used at 20,000 top UK stores, from Debenhams, to Iceland, and can even be put towards family days out at top attractions such as LEGOLAND Windsor, and Drayton Manor.
They’re so easy to buy – just visit the website and register your details (just takes a couple of minutes) then select the amount of vouchers you’re after. Et Voila! They’ll arrive on your doorstep a few days later, in a snazzy personalised wallet.
Standard delivery is free (up to £100 value) but you can also select next-day delivery, for those last-minute pressie ideas.
High Street Gift Vouchers. Boring? Brilliant, more like…

I always prefer to receive gift vouchers as I am a fussy one and I don’t have a very good poker face when someone presents me with something I don’t like 🙁
