OK, so you’ve been married or together for nearly 10 years. You’ve been asking your wife or girlfriend what she would like for Christmas. She’s delighted that you are actually interested in Christmas and offers a few suggestions or  hints – but she’s not been specific about what she would like most. You play it safe and buy her gift vouchers from a reputable online or high street store, thinking that she can get what she wants.

“We come bearing gift vouchers!”

Unless it was a voucher for a thoughtful Experience Gift like a relaxing Spa break –WRONG MOVE!!

Notwithstanding the value of the gift voucher, she will not be happy!  She will think that you do not know enough about her or her tastes – or did not care enough to make the effort to get her something special. Yes – you’ve really blown it!

Gift vouchers are great for non-immediate members of the family, friends or co-workers. If you are not that close to them, you are not really expected to know their tastes and interests. In these situations, gift vouchers are an appropriate and flexible way to get them what they need or want.  Take care to ensure that the recipient can get a reasonable choice of gifts from the merchant and look carefully at the small print for special conditions – especially an expiry date.

The only circumstances in which you would give a really close member of your family a gift voucher is in the form of a secondary gift or as a Christmas stocking filler – for example a gift voucher of modest value to buy CDs, DVDs, video games, books etc

In rare cases your other half may reluctantly ask you for gift vouchers from a particular store. Don’t think you’re off the hook or she will happy with gift vouchers. This is usually a sign that you can’t be trusted to remember precisely what she asked for, or are likely to get the colour or size wrong. If this is you, you had better up your game, or all you’ll be getting from her over the Christmas holiday period is “I’ve got a headache” and Christmas turkey sandwiches!
