AD| Christmas Gift Guide 2019

November 11, 2019

It’s Christmas yay! I do love Christmas. It’s easily my favourite time of the year, with the towns all starting to put up their Christmas decorations and the shops playing those timeless classic Christmas songs and watching my seven year old twin girls start to get excited as they start to think of what they want for Christmas and picking everything in the Argos catalogue haha!

 

It’s magical to see them in their Christmas plays and this heightens the excitement of Christmas.

For the last five years I have done a Christmas gift guide on the blog and this year is no different. I have a very mixed bag of products for children, men and women and hopefully they may inspire you if you are stuck as to what to buy for your children or your significant other. So without further ado let’s get started.

1. NextBase Dashcam 322GW RRP £99 & Cabin View Camera RRP £49

So first up on my Christmas gift guide this year is the Nextbase Dashcam 322GW. There is no doubt that driving today is harder than ever and accidents can happen so easily. Most insurance companies will accept dashcam footage when it comes to settling a claim.

That’s why having a dashcam in your car is an absolute must. This particular one is fantastic value. It has an ultra clear 1080p full HD recording which captures the road ahead in full detail. This will help prove any possible incident which was not your fault. Intelligent parking mode starts recording as soon as motion is detected. It has a high definition 2.5″ touch screen with IPS technology giving a wide viewing angle. It’s easy to install and when you remove it with one hand using the exclusive Click&Go PRO mount. You can connect it to the My NextBase suite or the app on your smartphone to view, edit or share your footage. It really is a fantastic piece of tech and great value for money.

As an added extra you can also add the cabin view camera which records inside your car and out of the side windows giving you and your passengers an extra level of security and I will be able to see what my twin girls are up too haha!

Either separately or together, this is a fantastic Christmas present and can be purchased by clicking here: Dashcam Cabin view camera

2. Wahl Aqua Blade RRP £89.99

Nowadays men take self grooming much more seriously and to see designer stubble is not very unusual, so if the man in your life has stubble that he wants to make sure looks perfect all the time, then the Wahl Aqua Blade is a must. It’s a wet/dry stubble and beard trimmer that gives a 60% closer cut. It’s rechargeable and has 180 minutes of run-time with 12 guide combs to provide a wide variety of styling options.

The lithium Ion battery doesn’t lose any charge when not being used so it’s always ready to go.

The Wahl Aqua Blade has a 5 year warranty and is fantastic value at just £89.99. It can be purchased here. So what are you waiting for? Get this for your man this Christmas and all he has to do is Trim, Shave, Edge.

3. GP Headlamp Discovery CH34 RRP £14.98

We go camping a lot during the summer months and one of the most important things you need on a camping trip is a torch. Sometimes though it’s difficult to carry a torch because you may be weighed down carrying other things so check out this awesome hands free, motion sensor headlamp. It’s absolutely perfect for camping trips, plus it’s shock and water resistance. 90m bean, on/off sensor movement and SOS modes. It’s brilliant value and can be purchased here.

4. GP Headlamp Discovery CH31 (kids) RRP £6.98

The Junior Jams Bluetooth headphones come from Puro Sound Labs. They are not only very cool but they protect little ears because the noise is limited to 85dB. This means they can listen to up to 8 hours per day safely and they are suitable for 3+ years old.

They have outstanding sound using Puro Sound Labs pure balance response curve which eliminates 87% of ambient sound.

They can be linked via Bluetooth to a tablet or smart phone at the same time and more than one at a time so perfect for car journeys and the Bluetooth has a 30ft range. The lithium-ion battery has a 22 hour working time.

7. Robo Dash RRP £60.00

I’m not sure about kids loving RoboDash, which I might add they defiitely will, but I love him too and I want him for myself!

RoboDash is a remote controlled puppy that is truly awesome. He has two modes. You can either control him manually using the remote control sensor or you can have him set to follow you around like a real puppy. RoboDash will also play fetch when you roll the sensor ball. RoboDash also has sensors in his head that will make him expand or shrink his spring like fabric body. He will also pant, bark and wag his tail like a real dog. It’s seriously an awesome little dog.

It’s fantastic value and on Christmas morning I can see your children falling in love with RoboDash. If you want to purchase RoboDash it’s available here.

    I don’t know about everyone else, but I find buying for male family and friends really difficult! This has helped SO much this year and have bookmarked it to send to friends. #ThatFridayLinky
