Day 20: Say no to naff
Home » Blog » Advent Calendar » Day 20: Say no to naffDid you know that 67% of Kiwis want practical gifts for Christmas? And more than a third of us received unwanted gifts last Christmas ... with the majority of those languishing in a cupboard? Here's how to avoid naff gifts once and for all ...
Vouchers have a reputation for being a boring pressie, but the majority of Kiwis (73% of women and 55% of men) say they don't see them as lazy gifts. Good news for us last-minute Christmas shoppers!
What's even better is that the same survey revealed 50% of us are happy for someone to donate to charity on our behalf. (Here's more from the survey if you're interested).
With that in mind, here's some practical pressies from Unicef's Inspired Gifts range ... guaranteed to make someone very, very happy.
