Does the thought of traipsing into town to buy Christmas presents absolutely revolt you?
We don't blame you. It's a nightmare out there.
Fear not though, these seven gifts can be purchased from the comfort of your bed – easy peasy – and anyone would love 'em.
1. Spotify Premium
For the music lover in your life, this is the gift we would buy ourselves, if we could afford it. Even though it is only €0.99 for three months at the moment!
Also, anything with the word 'premium' in the name is going to make you feel a bit glam.
Give the gift of music this Christmas.
2. A helicopter ride with a glass of prosecco in hand
Airlines like Ryanair, Aer Lingus, EasyJet and WOW air are always reliable for some inexpensive, last-minute flights. Or else take a look at SkyScanner.
A fantastic Christmas present!
4. A whopper meal in a spot they haven't tried yet
Have your foodie friends always been dying to hit up a certain restaurant but never got the chance? Now they do, cause you're a cracking mate.
Call up, make a reservation and tell your friend the meal is on you. Go on.

Instead of being pumped into us via well meaning language teachers, this time it is fuelled by TikTok sleuths dissecting every minor inconvenience as proof we’re already in […]
A survival guide for the tragically trendy now being bullied by signage. So. It’s sunny. You’ve got your tiny sunglasses on, your €17 graphic tee is cropped just enough to show the tattoo you got in a moment of heartbreak, and your Sambas have barely touched grass. You’ve done your civic duty and supported a […]
Waking up at 5AM is slightly more tolerable when there’s the Best Sunrise Views in Dublin and the opportunity to flex on main. There’s a specific kind of person who voluntarily wakes up at sunrise. They’re either spiritually awakened, deeply anxious, on a wellness bender, or just trying to feel something before the workday starts. […]
