Don’t buy presents this Christmas but buy experiences: a day at a spa, or if you know someone is into Yoga buy them an intro month membership to a studio. Treating someone to a day out is way more fun than buying them something else they don’t need!
Try alternatives to physical presents. Instead, give people experiences (see below) or donate to charity – like a cinema membership, workshop, activity, or a restaurant voucher.
Wrapping paper? Just don’t do it. Try reusing paper you already have at home, like older wrapping paper, gift bags, newspaper or magazines. Cotton bags or scraps of colourful material can also work. This isn’t new – the furoshiki is a Japanese style of wrapping cloth used to wrap gifts with.
