What to get your friend for Christmas who has everything?

14th November 2013 Print

Christmas is the time of year for spreading good cheer and buying presents for loved ones, and as families come together from all over the world for those precious few days or weeks in December, it really is a special time for all. The house is cosy and warm, the Christmas turkey is in the oven, and all the presents are tucked away under the tree – or that’s how things are supposed to be! Unfortunately, millions of people all over the UK leave it until the last minute to do their Christmas shopping, and with stores all across the country set to see double the amount of shoppers through their doors this year, there’s no doubt that organisation is key.

No matter who you’re shopping for, or where you’re going to be buying your gifts, identifying your budget and sticking to is essential to having a successful day out. There’s no point in wasting time and searching for presents you can’t afford, but you will have to have an understanding of what the person likes or enjoys. Everyone has a friend or knows someone who has everything, and these types of people who are the most difficult to buy for. This Christmas, instead of blindly picking out presents, here are some top gifts and gadgets for those tedious friends who are usually first in the queue for the latest products.

iPhone 5 Bladepad

At £84, this iPhone 5 accessory may seem a little expensive, but for the person that has everything, it’s more than worth the price tag. Not only is it stylish, and perfect for that person who loves to be up to date on the high street’s latest gadgets, but if they’re a gamer too then they’re going to enjoy this even more. The Bladepad is a gaming controller similar to that of a PSP, however it slides right from underneath your phone, complete with illuminated joysticks and buttons. One of the best things about the Bladepad is that it comes with its own charger, which also charges your iPhone too!

The Breffo Adventure Camera Kit

For those who enjoy amateur photography, this smart ‘octopod’ is like a little platform for your digital camera, gripping onto most services and holding onto the camera via a screw mount. This means you can take pictures of yourself at funny angles, or in places where it’s difficult to balance a camera on a surface. At only £20, this is a great stocking filler, and you can also upload the photos you take to My Photo Gifts, creating personalised mugs in no time!

Philips Citiscape Downtown Over Ear Headphones

In the last two years, consumers have gone crazy for headphones, not least the huge monsters that started off the whole trend – Dr Dre Beats Headphones. Sadly, those retail at around £300 for the highest spec, however the Philips Citiscape Downtown Headphones come in at a close second, at less than half the price. At £60, the ear cushions are extremely comfortable, and come with a sound quality of the highest standard.
