Your Christmas gift guide

Posted on 13 December 2011

It’s nearing mid-December, the shopping malls are frantic, and you need to buy Christmas gifts for 15 people, including a Secret Santa for that random guy in the office near the photocopier who you’ve never spoken to. Don’t panic – we’ve got Christmas present buying sorted this year. Check out this guide, and head to the mall with purpose (or, even better, go online!).

 

Guys

I always find guys more difficult to shop for than girls. Our digital projects manager, Chris Davies, splits guys into six categories and chooses great gifts for each category. Shopping for your husband/brother/dad/boyfriend/uncle has never been this easy.

 

Girls

Photojournalist Fatima Jakoet has picked out 24 travel-inspired gifts for women, ranging in price from R99 to R5500.

 

Gear

If you’ve got to buy a present for someone who’s into the outdoors and camping, then we’ve rounded up 12 awesome gifts – from mozzie nets to rechargeable batteries.

 

Gadgets

For the gadget-obsessed traveller, we’ve rounded up seven cool travel gadgets, including designer tents.

 

Stocking fillers

Digital intern Craig Leyenaar chooses his top five books for his Christmas stocking this year.

 

Christmas donations

And, if you’re feeling generous, here are five ways to be charitable this Christmas.
