GIFTS MADE EASY With Shoppers Drug Mart
Now that Halloween is over, it’s time to start “thinking” about the holidays… I say it like that because I am probably one of the biggest procrastinators when it comes to my holiday shopping. No matter how much I think about it and tell myself “this year is going to be different”, it never happens. My Christmas shopping doesn’t get done until the 23rd because I am so indecisive as to what I should get for everyone on my list, especially 2 of the most special little boys in my life and my husband. I definitely believe – a little help can go a long way around this time of year and that includes holiday gift guides.
Shoppers Drug Mart has created an online destination, running now until December 25th, that makes it easy for me to find gifts that I know my family will love. I can filter through hundreds of ideas for gifts by price, category and even the type of person that I am buying for. A few of the fabulous gift ideas that will be featured for the Cool Kid and Trendy Tots are:
Acer 8″ Tablet – Kids nowadays are so tech savvy. I am constantly going to my son and getting him to show me how to do something on my phone and he’s only 6 years old. I know that he would definitely love to find this all wrapped up under the tree, already loaded with all of his favourite games.
Disney Frozen Olaf – Anything that has to do with Frozen, can not be seen by my 2 year old without him belting out “Let It Go” regardless of where we are. This includes the middle of a department store. I just know that he would love this little cuddly guy.
Captain America Super Soldier Stealthfire Shield – What little boy doesn’t LOVE to pretend that they are a superhero protecting the world from evil-doers? I know 2 that use their imaginations all day. My oldest even has the perfect PJ’s to match this toy.
Gillette ProGlide Holiday Pack – My husband is EXTREMELY hard to buy ANYTHING for. He never wants anything and when he does he just goes out and buys it himself. This grooming set is perfect for the Modern Man in anyone’s life… you can never have too much of one thing to help you look good.
Carnaby Sweet Luxury European Biscuit Collection – This assortment of mild, dark and white chocolate is sure to make any mouth water, including mine. I know what my sons teachers are going to be getting this holiday season. These also make perfect gifts for The Entertainer and any host/hostesses for any parties that I may have to go to.
Shoppers Drug Mart is one of my favourite stops for holiday shopping – they are open late, some locations are even 24 hours, they always have in-store sales, and promotions during the holidays
when the fabulous gift sets come out. Plus I can earn Shoppers Optimum Points on almost all of my purchases which could lead to FREE gifts down the road. Be on the lookout for the launching of their additional Holiday Gift Guides/beauty books between November and December:
- “Give Beauty, beautyBOUTIQUE by Shoppers Drug Mart” now available
- “Get Set for the Happiest Holidays!” out November 15th

I am in Shoppers Drug Mart every week for household essentials but didn’t realize that they also sold tablets and toys. My kids are just at that age where I’m considering getting them technology of their own. I love to support Canadian.

Me too! My oldest has quite a few technology gizmos, probably too much for his age but I am definitely looking at something for my 2 year old so he stops stealing it form his big brother.
