- Mildly Concerned (until the end of November)
You’ll have a
nervous feeling, knowing if you don’t start shopping soon, you’re going to get
worried – Christmas is coming and you need to start buying gifts. You’ll be
noting possible presents to buy but not actually purchasing, thinking you still
have plenty of time and you’ll come back later.
TOP
TIP – When you see something you like,
make a note of who it’s for, where you saw it and the cost so you can compare
later on. Get the basics in - wrapping paper, scissors, sticky tape
(lots) and on a roll, labels (stick on = easier) with string (more fiddly but
prettier), bows and ribbon (nice have, not a must have).
You’ve progressed
to feeling worried. Christmas is on your mind and rather than filling you
with excitement, you’re thinking about all the things you still need to
do. Typically, you’re trying to remember those presents you thought were
a good idea and trying to recall where you saw them. You’ll also be
conscious of trying to limit spending and get gifts at the best possible price.
TOP
TIP – Compartmentalise your gift buying to
ease pressure. Get all nieces, nephews, friends and grandchildren bought
before the end of the week. www.compare4kids.co.uk/gifts
will direct you to the best gifts for children 0 – 16.
You’re feeling
uncomfortable, bordering on frightened that someone will be left disappointed.
It’s getting difficult to make decisions and you’re questioning some of the
gifts you’ve already bought.
TOP
TIP – Know what and who you’ve bought for
and who’s left to buy for. Wrap and label those gifts to prevent double
buying in a moment of uncertainty.
The day you wake
up with a strong feeling of fear that prevents reasonable thought and
action. Budget goes out of the window, you’re looking dishevelled and
wide eyed as you dash through the aisles and displays, stuffing a myriad of
gifts that will always “come in” when you inevitably overspend and over
buy.
TOP
TIP – you’re a sales persons dream – stay
away from the shops! Have a shower, get a cup of tea, make a list of who
you need to buy for and set a budget. Start with the youngest and work
up. Go to www.compare4kids.co.uk/gifts
to cover everything you need for kids. Only hit the shops once you have a
plan (and not too much left to buy!)
Compare4kids.co.uk has done the
hard work for all last minute Laura’s and Lenny’s – they’ve researched the best
kids gifts from over 50 retailers and put them together on one website, a bit
like having your very own online personal shopper. Stressed out shoppers
can now relax with a cup of tea and a screen and select great kids gifts based
on age, gender and price.
Catering for girls and boys aged 0
– 16 – there’s a vast range of presents available, catering for budgets of £5
to “blow the budget”. Not only that, the site aims to offer the best
price available on the internet, meaning no last minute ‘expensive’ panic buys
or the disappointment of finding empty shelves.
As advent calendar windows open
with alarming speed, panic-stricken, time-poor shoppers can simply click on the
gift they want, which takes them directly to the individual retailer’s
website. The site works great from both a desktop and mobile device.
Compare4Kids founder, Rachael Ede,
said: “Whether you’re shopping for your own children, nieces, nephews,
grandchildren or friends, we have gifts to suit everyone and all budgets.
It’s super simple to use and means you can get the Christmas shopping for the
kids done quickly and without any hassle, all from the comfort of your
armchair. Or, if you wake in the middle of the night with crushing
realisation that you literally have no time left, Compare4kids.co.uk is the
site to come to.”
Retailers listed include
Mothercare, Hamleys, Argos, Amazon, I Want One Of Those, Not On The High
Street, John Lewis and many more. Go to www.compare4kids.co.uk/gifts
