Shops bursting with<br />
festive gift ideas<br />
The countdown to the big day is well underway, so making up the<br />
Christmas gift list will now be a top priority… if you haven’t already done so.<br />
Finding those special gifts and stocking fillers as<br />
well as the Christmas treats for the table is so easy at<br />
our city’s malls and shopping centres, where the shops<br />
are bursting with festive merchandise.<br />
Every woman likes to receive body pampering<br />
gifts, and there is a huge selection of these priced<br />
to suit all budgets at the many pharmacies and gift<br />
shops around the city. Perfume is another favourite<br />
and again there is a wide selection to choose from,<br />
ranging from exciting new releases to the well-known<br />
fragrances that have stood the test of time. Lingerie,<br />
jewellery, fashion accessories, homewares and decor<br />
items – there’s no end to the ideas for the women on<br />
the list.<br />
The men are equally well catered for, from the<br />
sophisticated metro-male boyfriends, to the car-crazy<br />
brothers and the DIY enthusiast and keen gardener<br />
husbands and dads. Choose from clothing, books,<br />
tools, personal grooming items and gadgets to put a<br />
smile on their face on Christmas morning.<br />
Speaking of smiles, nothing gives families more joy<br />
than seeing the excitement of the children opening<br />
their presents. Whether they are delivered by Santa<br />
or snuck under the tree by mum and dad, the cuddly<br />
toys, games, dolls and building blocks, the candy<br />
canes, toy trucks and pretty dresses currently filling<br />
the shops will bring squeals of sheer happiness from<br />
the smallest family members.<br />
The tweens and teens usually have their own ideas<br />
about what they want for Christmas, so the gift cards<br />
offered by a wide range of retailers are the perfect way<br />
to please.<br />
Give a Christmas<br />
gift to remember!<br />
