Ideal Christmas Presents with Groupon

With just seven days until Christmas I've only bought one present - normally I'm pretty chilled but even I'm starting to panic. I'd like to blame it on uni being crazy busy this year but actually I've just had zero inspiration. What do you buy for people who probably don't need more material things? That's where Groupon comes in with gift guides for him (always the people I find are hardest to buy for) as well as her, couples and affordable gifts.

Groupon is a site I often turn too because when you don't have any ideas often a thoughtful gift like restaurant vouchers or a spa day is better than something they don't really need. If you can go too then it is a win win because you get to spend time with that special someone too.

I'm a student so doing Christmas on a budget is important - if I can buy someone something more expensive for less money that always feels like a win to me.

1. Afternoon Tea

This is the perfect treat for your best friend, mum or Grandma. I've bought afternoon tea vouchers on Groupon before and not only are they great value but they also have lots of local venues to choose from.

2. A Spa Day

Another great gift for someone who needs to take some time to relax because it is something they wouldn't normally treat themselves too. Ideal for some quality time together as the vouchers are often for two people.

3. Jamie's Italian Vouchers

What is better to beat away the January blues than having a nice meal to look forward to? I've had several really good meals at Jamie's Italian and at the moment groupon are offering a two-course meal for two people for £29 (or four people for £58) so if you have one local this would be a great option.

4. A Weekend Getaway

If you're feeling generous this would be a great gift for your other half, parents or best friend. My boyfriend never needs anything but we love to do things together and have something to look forward to in the new year without having to spend a fortune.

5. A Course (doing something they enjoy)

From photography to dance classes and floristry courses there is bound to be something for everyone. It is great to get out and do something different and if you can learn a new skill then it is even better - a gift that could last a lifetime.

With alot of these gifts being vouchers they can be bought extremely last minute but still look thoughtful. So what are you still doing here? Go and check out Groupon's gift guides now!
