    How to survive Christmas 2020

    October 26, 2020 / No Comments

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year – and potentially the most stressful.  While Christmas brings along plenty to be cheerful about, it can feel like the pressure’s on during the festive period. A YouGov study found more than 40% of people have felt stressed in the run up to Christmas. Another survey found that as many as 51% of people feel stressed due to the pressure of finding Christmas gifts. This year, Covid-19 has added a heaping dose of anxiety and uncertainty into the mix. Frankly, we don’t blame you if you’re feeling overwhelmed.  That’s why we’ve put together a guide to surviving Christmas 2020. Whether you’re looking…

    How to survive Black Friday 2020

    October 5, 2020 / No Comments

    Black Friday might look a little different this year. There’ll be the usual exciting deals and mega discounts – helpful for saving on festive season gifts. But instead of a mad rush to the stores, more shoppers will be filling their digital carts, as Covid-19 restrictions continue to change the way we shop.  With more deals just a click away, Black Friday can get overwhelming. It’s all too easy to get sucked in and splurge on impulse buys instead of genuinely good gifts. But, with a bit of forward-planning, you can become a savvy shopper and pick up some impressive Black Friday offers that make the perfect presents.  Here’s everything…
