December is generally the epitome of chaos. It’s the sudden realisation that
you haven’t even thought about Christmas presents and it’s looking highly
likely that the pack of charity Christmas cards you’ve had in the stationery
drawer for two years will be there for a third. And for some unknown reason,
there’s always a desperate, almost pathological, need to catch-up with
people for a drink before the 25th – people that you haven’t seen or cared
about all year. Remember how you told yourself this time last December,
when you searched the shopping mall car park for two hours, that you
would do your Christmas shopping early next time? It didn’t happen, did
it? Now you’re going to have to face the elbows and the ankle-bruising,
pram-wielding parents in a retail Running of the Bulls. However, there is an
easy solution. If you’re unsure what to buy your loved ones this year, head
into your local JB, corner a category staff member and let them do the hard
work for you. Whether you’re thinking video games, music or DVDs, these
super knowledgeable folk are on hand to guide you through the process of
making a purchase that you won’t be embarrassed to watch being opened on
Christmas morning. And then you can sit back, pull a cracker, and bask in the
kudos of that inspired gift choice. Have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy
NewYear. See you in 2017.
