Great Last Minute Gift Ideas


Time is ticking and Christmas is less than 36 hours away and while some of you may already have your shopping done, there are plenty who have yet to finish.  Some who haven't even started.  

Here are some gift ideas for the last minute shopper that won't disappoint.


Gifts for Him:
For the sports fan, get him tickets to see his favourite team.  Most of these can be purchased online these days so there's no need to worry about getting to the box office.

If he's a die-hard gamer you may want to check the website http://store.steampowered.com/ as a source for downloading games that are both compatible with the PC and MAC platform.

Navigation systems are a great item to give your guy.  It seems they never want to admit when they are lost so having one of these will make him really feel like he never lost his way. GPS systems are very reasonably priced these days as low as $100 at most retailers.

Anything Apple.  iPod, iPad, iTunes.  If you want to really make an impressions get him a MacBook.

Gifts for Her:

Gift Certificates to her favourite spa or salon are a great idea that you know she'll use.

Stylish mobile phone cases are always a hit.  You know she uses her phone every day and this will be a reminder of something special you gave her.

Movies and music are always a good choice.  Pick a boxed DVD or Blue-Ray set of her favourite TV series or movie.

Scarves are a trend item that will work for any woman.  Especially during the cold winter months.  Find a scarf with texture or an interesting pattern that will be a great accent to any outfit.  She can stay warm while looking great.

Victoria Secret gift certificates.

Jewelry.  Plain and simple you can never go wrong by picking some jewelry for any woman.  Earrings, bracelets, necklaces and if you're serious get that ring.

Gifts for yourself:

I know that sometimes when I go shopping I can't resist a great deal.  The mission might be to shop for someone else but, you get caught up and end up getting gifts....for yourself!  Here are great ways to treat you!


  • Spa Treatments
  • Cozy blankets
  • Accessories
  • Make a charitable donation
