Christmas gifts ideas (on a budget!)
Hi all 
If any of you need some inspiration for Christmas gifts try GrabOne (http://www.grabone.co.nz/). My partner is quite difficult to buy for so I've bought him a couple of things from here - a trip to a local brewery (can't go wrong) and a breakfast voucher for a cafe (two brekkies for $21). For those of you with kids into dancing I saw a one term dance class tuition package for $50 (usually $140). I've also booked some friends a cruise in Akaroa on Bookme (http://www.bookme.co.nz/bookings/chr...-kaikoura/home). Many bargains on Bookme, most of them I will be taking advantage of in the new year
Those examples are Chch specific but there's lots of things all over NZ on the websites.
Anyways, just thought I would share as I think the offers are exceptionally good. Happy Holidays everyone!

Re: Christmas gifts ideas (on a budget!)
Wowzer, I wouldn't mind those things myself.
I do buy one of those Entertainment Books sometimes - have bought one from a local charity this year round, and have been out for a few deals from that. I guess that would make a good pressie, but it does originally come out in the winter.
One of our gifts this year is family tickets to see the new Hobbit film.

Re: Christmas gifts ideas (on a budget!)
Tickets to the Hobbit is a great idea. I much prefer buying things for people to do, rather than buying stuff (that'll probably end up in the back of a draw or charity shop some where!)
