The fairy lights are up, the decorations are hung, but there is still an empty space beneath that Christmas tree. Ah yes, your weeks of procrastination have resulted in this moment of pure anxiety. Current You silently curses Past You.
Don’t panic, though. This year, give your family or friends their perfect gift through a gift voucher! We’ve scoured the internet and found some of the top pressies you can gift to your loved ones this Christmas.
We all know someone who thinks they’re the next Gordon Ramsey. The second they step into a restaurant, all their senses are heightened and they’re at the top of their critic game. But what happened to the good old restaurant experience when food was the most important thing?
Forget about a fancy gastronomical menu, and offer your foodie mate this sensory-deprivation experience to Nox’s Dine in The Dark instead. One sense is temporarily taken away, but like Marvel’s Daredevil, your four other senses are heightened. You can find out if your friend can really tell apart lime from lemon, and invite them to further food excursions, or if they were just lying through their teeth the whole time. It’s a win-win really.
Get it here.
Combining fitness and a whole lot of fun, BOUNCE Singapore will have your heart racing, your palms sweating, and your cheeks sore from smiling. There’s a huge variety of trampolines, where falling hard means bouncing higher. When you’re tired of bouncing, head over to the indoor adventure courses so you can pretend you’re a contestant on Takeshi’s Castle. X Park, also known as a Ninja Warrior Obstacle Course, will have you climbing, jumping and zipping on an aerial all the way to the finish line.
Get a gift voucher for your family or friend, then invite yourself along… if only to see all the embarrassing moments like when they fall!

Treat your mum or your girlfriend to a regal staycation at the 5 star Capella Singapore, located on Sentosa Island. Even the name of some rooms sound absolutely dreamy like the ‘Constellation Room,’ where you’ll have a great view of the starry night on the huge balcony.
The lucky recipient will be able to dip their tired aching feet into their own private jacuzzi, then wrap themselves up in a big fluffy towel. They’ll be able to match their luxurious experience in the jacuzzi with an equally luxurious rainforest shower before heading to bed and snuggling beneath the thick soft duvet. I’m sleepy just thinking about it.

I bet your brother, boyfriend or one of your guy friends has dreamed about riding in one of these sweet babies at Ultimate Drive. I know I’m not a guy, but I’ve dreamed about it too! You start off at the Singapore Flyer or Marina Bay Sands and can whizz through Singapore with speeds up to 189 mph.
If the receiver of this voucher isn’t able to drive, they can still cruise in style while a professional driver takes them for the ride of their life! With models such as the Ferrari F1 Spider or Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder, you know it’s gonna be a fast and furious experience they won’t forget for a long time.

From dainty rose-gold necklaces, to funky bright blue coloured socks, your trinket-lover friend will spend hours browsing Naiise’s uniquely designed products. With myself as a rather reliable source, I can safely say that most girls are in love with this store, so it’s a safe bet if you’re not certain of what they like! This store covers almost everything, so she’ll find something she falls in love with.

If you know someone who swears they belong on water, then perhaps you should send them a gift card for Marine Bookings. They have a wide selection of yachts, so your sea-lover can find one that’ll fit their sailor needs! As their yachts fit a whole bunch of people, you can even sneakily invite yourself on. After all, you did buy them a gift card.
Get it here.
Pro-tip: contact them by email on the top right hand corner to request a gift card.
‘No thanks, I’m gluten-free, a vegan and on a non-carb diet.’ says the friend that can’t eat anything. Gift them something delicious they can eat this Christmas.
BoxGreen features tons of healthy and suitable snacks that come in the cutest of cardboard boxes. Your health-fanatic mate will be thrilled with the environment-friendly packaging. Plus, the snacks will be delivered right to their doorstep. That means they’ll be able to stay in bed wearing comfy pjs while watching Netflix and snacking on those super-convenient snacks. They’ll thank you for it.

After a long day at work, the stressed out workaholic is even more stressed out worrying about tomorrow’s tasks. However, what they really need to do is go to Palm Ave Float Club and lie down in a Sensory Deprivation tank, where they can just relax. With this gift, their worries will quite literally just float away.
The tank will allow them to slip into a deep-meditative state where they can bathe in the Epsom Salt water and let go of all the stress that’s been building up. Ahh…

If I was a small child again, I know I’d enjoy being encased in a huge inflatable bubble at Singexperience while simultaneously trying to play football. Of course I’d fail, fall over and look like a complete prat trying to get up again, but hey ho – it’d be good fun. On the other hand, I think it’d be more fun watching somebody else get knocked around in an inflatable bubble.
Get that child in your life a gift voucher for this Bubble Soccer Kids Party. You’ll probably end up having more fun than them!

‘Don’t get me anything.’ insists the completely selfless person. ‘Okay,’ you say, and immediately think of a way to get around it. One way to get around this is a gift card to Milaap, a fundraising website for various causes. This kind-hearted person will be able to choose from a variety of causes, and even be able to start up their own fundraiser! With the help of your gift card, you’re helping other people for them, and that for them, is one of the best presents they could have.
Get it here.
