AD | Taking the Stress out of Christmas Shopping for Kids and Teens with TK Maxx

November 13, 2019

Christmas is fast approaching and the do list is filling up with things to do. From choosing a Christmas tree to writing Christmas cards and of course choosing the perfect gifts for everyone, it’s definitely all very fun but also can be hard work. I like to keep my Christmas as stress free as possible, I focus on making it fun, having lots of family time and making it as magical as possible for the kids. I don’t believe in spending an absolute fortune at Christmas so I’m always on the look out for bargains. For the last few years I’ve bought a lot of the girls gifts from TK Maxx, so when I was invited to choose them a few things and write about the experience I absolutely jumped at the chance.

Christmas Shopping at TK Maxx

TK Maxx make Christmas shopping easy, I can usually find something for everyone I know because there is much variety under one roof. I can choose beauty gifts for my friends, books and toys for the kids, food gifts for relatives and a plethora of pants and socks for Rob! I also can never resist a quick look at all their amazing decorations too.

I was gifted a £200 gift voucher to find some lovely bits for the girls and popped to the Oxford Street store to see what I could find. Lila is always really easy to shop for. At 8 years old she still absolutely love toys and cute things. At 13 Jess is a little harder to buy for as she’s more interested in clothes and accessories now and definitely has her own tastes and preferences – a total minefield to buy for in fact!
