Gift voucher or present?

Which would you prefer to get for Crimbo - a gift voucher (where for?) or a present?

Present.

Gift vouchers are THE worst type of present. If you're not sure what to get someone, give them money to the value. Don't lock them into buying something from a specific shop. I HATE gift vouchers.

Gift cards are ok for a casual relation if you know the person will shop at the store but you aren't sure about their tastes.

I don't mind gift vouchers if the thought has gone into where it's for. For example, I have asked for topshop, homebase, asda, etc but I once got miss selfridge ones and I never used them because I'm not a 15 year old pre wag called Tiffany.

When people ask me what do I want I always same the same thing "If you really want to get me some pop into (name of my fave kitsch collectable shop) or lush, close your eyes spin three times and whatever you are pointing at, buy me". Easy.

Money and genuine offers of sexual favors.

Haha!
Yes. The last time I used Miss Selfridge I was still a size 6.

Blooming heck.

I don't think you can go far wrong with the gift of a years subscription to your favourite adult themed site. Porn. Asks so little, gives so much. The gift that just keeps on cumming.

I tried that in Boots once and ended up buying a years supply of tampons.

I used to shop at Sauron's shop, but it was Mordor.

I think the way you gift a voucher can be creative. If someone asks for vouchers, I buy something to attatch it to. For example, tie one for a toy shop it with ribbon around the neck of a small teddy :)

Did I say child porn? Did I? I have to put up with the little f**kers 5 days a week. The thought of having them on my computer as well abhors me. Still, they're probably a lot quieter and well behaved.
