(gifted) Christmas shopping across the miles with Moonpig, here’s how to we can all enjoy a stress-free Christmas with family and friends.
Preparing for Christmas has been made that bit harder this year especially with the month long lockdown during one of the most crucial shopping months. Our preparation may have suffered a few knock backs but there is plenty of time to buy all your gifts, get them wrapped and revel in your amazing organisation skills.
Friends and family may be located all around the country and visiting them with arms full of food and gifts isn’t going to be as easy as normal. I know I won’t get to see all my loved ones this year. But, out of sight doesn’t have to mean out of mind. There is still plenty of time to arrange gifts and have them sent straight to you or the intended recipient.
What Can We Still Do?
Christmas shopping across the miles doesn’t have to be hard. We have a varied range available at Moonpig so the gifting side is covered. We may not all be able to get together with family this year but we have the facility to still share the day together albeit from a distance. There are all sorts of ways we can contact and see each other face to face from WhatsApp, Skype, Zoom etc. So we can even technically sit and eat our meals together even if it is via a screen. We can also see each other’s faces when we open up gifts. Sometimes the best part is seeing someone’s face light up when you’ve bought them something you know they’ll love.
Making Christmas 2020 Easier with Moonpig
This year dear old Santa is going to need a helping hand and Moonpig have kindly stepped up to offer a hand. So grab a glass of wine, head on over to moonpig.co.uk and take a look at the wide range of options available. Moonpig are not just known for their great range of cards, they have rapidly grown as a company. Moonpig are now creating a name for themselves with an ever increasing range of gifts. There is something for every family member, grandparent, aunt and uncle, niece and nephew, friend, and even work colleagues.
What’s on The Site?
Well, we all know they do cards and some lovely ones at that. The range of options is extensive. There are size and personalisation options too.
Gifts include flowers and plants, toys, novelty items, beauty products, products for the home, gifts for foodies, a range of personalised items, gift experiences and so much more. You can even find some great balloons which I discovered when we had a lockdown birthday for my little boy. He won’t be disappointed this Christmas.
Here are just a few items you’ll discover over on the Moonpig Website
Wall Climbing Car
My son has been asking for a wall climbing car since we were supposed to review one for a company and the car was never sent. It does happen sometimes and he was devastated at the time. He never forgot, so when I saw it on the website I knew I had to get it for him. The best part for me is seeing the joy in a giftees face when they open a gift. I really can’t wait to see little man’s face when he rips off the wrapping paper to reveal this fabulously fun toy. He’s going to be over the moon!
OPI Shine Bright Christmas Cracker Gift Set
This great Christmas cracker set has 4 mini nail lacquers perfect for the festive season. I won’t spoil the surprise and tell you the colours included although they are featured on the site if you really want to know. The festive coloured packaging makes this a great seasonal gift. It’s a gift ideal for beauty lovers from teens and up.
‘Magical Christmas Morning’ Yankee Candle Gift Set
Who doesn’t love a scented candle!!! Yankee candles are one of the most popular candle brands around and their gift sets some of the most coveted. This great selection includes 1 x Unwrap The Magic Small Jar Candle, 1 x Singing Carols Votive Candle, 1 x Holiday Hearth Votive Candle, 1 x Surprise Snowfall Votive Candle. These are lovely Christmassy scented candles, just what we need for this time of year.

A tasty gift for a foodie and anyone with a sweet tooth. Keep the fabulously festive tin to store Christmas decorations safely.
Gin House Gift Set
How Easy is it to Order with Moonpig?
I always say order in advance to avoid disappointment, but then I don’t like to leave things to chance. The site itself is simple to use, I haven’t figured out Zoom yet but I managed this (don’t tell anyone It’s pretty embarrassing). Ordering is easy and everything arrives at your chosen delivery address. You can choose an address for each item you order. How easy is that to help you celebrate Christmas across the miles!
So there you have it, Christmas shopping across the miles doesn’t have to be hard. We can still enjoy ourselves, see friends and family and take a well-deserved break from work too.
How will you be celebrating Christmas / the festive season this year?

I never heard of moonpig! It seems that online shopping is the way to go to give your loved ones their holiday gifts. I find it more convenient since we can’t see face to face or do gatherings unfortutely. 🙁 I like the scented candles the most! Thanks for sharing the list!
It is a much more convenient way to gift others.
Moon pig is killing it! Haha! so cute. Your post makes me smile because Christmas is Christmas! So happy! The season is just vibrant. Makes me forget about the pandemic
It does work as a lovely distraction Michael.
I love that they have so many different options. This year definitely isn’t going to look the same – many of us are going to be searching for gifts that we can ship to our loved ones. It looks like Moonpig may be exactly what a lot of people are looking for!
They really are providing just the right service to help us gift loved ones all over the country.
Thank you for sharing about Moonpig. It’s nice that they allow you to choose an address for each item. I hope other eCommerce stores would offer that option instead of placing multiple orders.
It does make shopping much simpler.
I’m not a Christmas fan but it doesn’t look like there’d be any celebration where I live. There is absolutely so sign whatsoever that that’s going to happen. This year has been a very stressful one but who knows? Maybe they’ll be. Nice read, by the way.
It may be too soon for some to put up decorations. I’m sure many will still be celebrating on the day.
Yankee candles are my favorite. I always ask for them for Christmas and always find it and always am excited with it. After all they have tons of options!
I used to be a big fan of OPI polishes, and I know people really enjoy those Yankee Candle gift sets.
I love Christmas! Thanks for the shopping list, although I’m almost done with my shopping. It’s the most wonderful time of the year.
I hadn’t heard of Moonpig before. I will have to check it out. You got some fabulous things. I am so excited about Christmas!

That Yankee candle gift set looks like a great present for many on my list this year. I need to look into checking them off of the list now, thanks for the ideas.
This is really helpful as I have family all over. I will see if I can use Moonpig this holiday season to send gifts to them.
I’m sure it’ll make gifting far easier for you Lisa.

A lot of time I painting or create things, and then buy something minimal, like a gift collection… much like the candles. Nice list of ideas.

never heard of Moonpig before. Anyway this year will be a sad Christmas as I will be spending it by myself since I can’t travel to see family.
That’s such a shame. I hope you guys can at least speak via video messaging. Gifting is made easy by Moonpig which helps x
