Gifts can be tough around the holidays, especially for friends or family for who you just can’t decide what to buy.

If you know someone who happens to be hard to buy the right gifts for, the best thing to get them might be some cash – or a voucher for their favourite retailer or website.

Here’s how to make sure you get gift-giving right this 2023, including why vouchers have become a popular Christmas gift for the year.

If you don’t know what to buy someone (or buy something they already have), it can lead to some awkward moments right after the holiday season – or a lot of returning things to the store.

Retailers and services like Amazon and YouTube offer these vouchers, which allows someone to choose what they would like to have (at the nominated value).

Why vouchers are cool

Most people might not know what they’re going to buy for someone else, but would have a clearer idea of what they would like to buy for themselves.

It means that vouchers have become a popular Christmas gift because it gives people more choices.

Instead of buying someone a book or show they might already have, just get them a purchase to the value of something they can choose themselves.

For unsure moments at Christmas, this could cut ouf a lot of the hard work.

Presents, cash, or the choice to buy

Vouchers are available for anything, from donuts to documentaries.
