So, what’s in store each week? Let’s unwrap the themes!
Saturday 7th – Sunday 8th December: “It Girl”
For the one who always looks effortlessly fabulous, this week’s present is loaded with chic goodies including Drunk Elephant Skincare, Rare beauty make-up and Sol de Janeiro products from Space NK. There’s also a Pandora set complete with earrings and a necklace, plus luxury shampoos and soaps from Rituals. It’s the ultimate “It Girl” bundle and trust us, you’re going to want in on this one.
Saturday 14th – Sunday 15th December: “Husband Has Everything”
What do you get for the guy who has it all? Besides socks, obviously. This week is packed with clever, unique and indulgent gifts that’ll leave him speechless (and let’s be honest, that’s a gift for you too). Gifts include a watch from Timberland, a gift card from Superdry and even a drone from Menkind! No present would be complete without chocolates so there’s also some goodies from Hotel Chocolat too. Make sure to enter to win this whole treasure trove of manly must-haves and nail the husband/partner/brother gift-giving game.
Saturday 21st – Sunday 24th December: “Screen Time’s Over”
Christmas is all about reconnecting. That’s why this week’s bundle is designed to help you hit pause on the digital distractions and enjoy some good, old-fashioned family fun. It’s packed with gifts that inspire creativity and quality time – perfect for making memories that last way longer than your phone battery. Expect presents from Smiggle, The Works, The Entertainer, Lego and Build-A-Bear.
Plus… The Ministry of Cheer Returns
Our very official (and definitely not serious) department dedicated to boosting Christmas spirit is back! They’ll be patrolling the mall, measuring your festive levels and ensuring no Grinches sneak past their watch. Keep an eye out for these merry mischief-makers as they might even sweeten your day with some tasty treats!
But that’s not all. Enter the Christmas Wrappers! An oversized gift-wrapped rap crew bringing beats, banter and a whole lot of festive fun. They’ll be dropping rhymes, hosting lip sync battles and challenging you to cheeky wordplay games as they roam. If you’re lucky, you might even catch them attempting a breakdance battle (though let’s hope they don’t land on anyone’s Christmas goodies).
