*This is a collaborative post. Sharing how sometimes the answer to tricky gift buying is to give a gift card… *

Sometimes you need to give someone a gift, but you can’t decide what to get them, or they are hard to buy for, or they may live far away and posting or getting an actual gift to them is a bit trickier.

A gift card is a brilliant and convenient idea, and Voucher Express “Your choice” gift cards make it easy.
