Every year at Christmas, do you also wonder what presents to wrap under the tree for your loved ones? How about swapping an unoriginal gift for an experience? Our reasons will convince you!
In today's world, we are overwhelmed by the abundance of material things, often with such a low price tag that it's impossible to resist. Our homes are thus decorated with both necessary and less necessary things. The choice is wide and there is plenty of everything.
When it comes to Christmas gifts, you're sure to be thinking about what to treat the recipient with. What does he or she really need? What is he missing? Finding the answer can sometimes be easy, especially if you've managed to find out in advance what the person is currently craving. A designer handbag, wireless headphones? Why not. :)
Forget the boring Christmas gift, we've got a better tip for you
But it's not always so clear cut, so we end up gifting cosmetics, books, clothes and other "just in case" gifts. But ask yourself: what emotions would you like to stir up under the Christmas tree? Would you want to hear a cheerful enthusiasm and genuine joy, or just a simple "thank you"?
If you really want to make the other person happy, reach for experience gifts, fulfill the gift recipient's secret dream, and excite emotions right away - during the unwrapping and during the experience itself.
Are you still hesitating why to give a experience as a Christmas present? Let us convince you!
1. The Christmas gift that makes a secret dream come true
Experiences like tandem skydiving, flying in an airplane/ balloon or riding in an expensive sports car are dreams that are on a lot of people's bucket list. Did your sister want to learn how to cook Thai food, your brother always wanted to learn how to take photos, your dad wished he could play golf, and your mom longs to get a relaxing massage?
We all have some dreams that we don't indulge ourselves - after all, unavoidable expenses come first, and we're just not in the habit of making ourselves happy. But that doesn't mean you can't please someone else with a voucher. Christmas is made for that!
All you need to do is choose the right experience - our Gift Guide can help. In just a few clicks, you can filter what kind of experience you want in what price range and instantly see a bunch of tips (not just) for Christmas gifts.
2. A flexible gift that can be used at any time
Giving tickets to the theatre or a concert of a favourite band can be a great option, but count on the fact that such events have fixed dates and one will have to adjust their plans to them. Experience vouchers are valid for a longer period of time (usually one year) and it is up to the recipient when to redeem their Christmas voucher.
3. Giving experiences can become a tradition
If you like this tradition of giving experiences, why not get the rest of the family involved? It doesn't have to be big, expensive gifts. Little things like a voucher for dinner can put a smile on your face. In short, anything you can do together and take away nice memories.
And if experiential gifts catch on at Christmas, you can extend the tradition to birthdays or anniversaries. Plus, it will force you to be more creative and you'll suddenly look forward to picking out a gift.
4. Not sure how to choose an experience? The universal voucher will solve that!
There are often concerns associated with vouchers: "What if I don't match the taste of the recipient, and besides, am I really just giving a piece of paper under the tree?"
If you miss the mark and buy an inappropriate experience, the gift recipient still has 30 days to return it. A sure bet could be, for example, a universal voucher of your choice, given in lieu of a specific experience.
You don't have to worry about giving "just a piece of paper" under the tree either. You can gift Adrop experience vouchers in cool gift packs, such as a wooden chest, which make unwrapping an experience!
