55 last minute gift ideas
Posted on
Christmas may be less than a week away but there is still time to get your gifting sorted, I repeat, there is still time.
Firstly, let’s all take a breath. With the weekend ahead (not to mention extended shopping hours from 20-22 December), you still have plenty of time to shop and, if you’re smart about it, you’ll find somewhere that saves you time as well as energy.
We’re talking about the air-conditioned interiors of Canberra Outlet, where you’ll find over 110 stores, as well as food and coffee to give you that much needed pre-or-post shopping boost. Did we mention there’s free parking?
There’s even a VIP Shopping Night happening tonight, Thursday 20 December, with the Centre open until 8 pm, and exclusive giveaways and offers from 5 pm with over $2000 worth of prizes up for grabs*.
But wait, there’s more. After you’re done shopping, take your purchases to be gift wrapped for a gold coin donation, with all proceeds going to Lifeline Canberra. Located near SuperGrocer, it’s happening from 11 am – 3 pm daily until Monday 24 December.
And if you’re lacking inspiration? Well, that’s where we come in. Here are 55 ideas for Christmas gifting.
