Shit you will not want to re-gift.

When the radio told me yesterday that there was only 26 days until Christmas, I screamed at it. “NO YOU ARE WRONG!” But then I looked around me. I was driving around and around the carpark at Chatswood trying desperately to get a park. But there were no parks. The panic has set in people. It is here.

I came home and vowed that would be the last time I tried to go to a shopping centre this year. Over the last few weeks I have been compiling a list of Christmas Gifts guaranteed not to make you gag. Or re gift. A few things I have been sent, but mainly they are things I have discovered. I have also tried to find the lowest price available on the net.

I should go and work for one of those companies that flog stuff on the Morning Show. I would have said Kerri Anne but she got to old for television. Apparently.

But I love a good gift guide and I hope you love mine. Things will be added over the next week. And if you have found something you love online, feel free to email me before Friday at mrswoog@hotmail.com

Shopping Centres?
Shut that shit down and come a clicking with me!

Loving these glass drinking bottles from Life Factory sick. Instead of swigging on plastic tasting water, give a funky flask. Each glass bottle is wrapped in silicone so it does not smash and has a wide mouth so you can ad ice. I love these and know I few friends that would love one too. Want the cheapest price on offer?

I first discovered The Little White T-Shirt Company when I was sent a selection of garments as a gift. I gave a few away to some friends and my Mum, who has since become addicted to the soft-as-silk Bamboo range. She is ordering them for all her sisters for Xmas! My pick? I am drooling after this one-size-fits all floaty Kaftan. Chuck it on over your swimmers or add layers of silver jewellery and head out to dinner, Either way it is HOT. Buy it for me HERE.

I love orange so much I now classify it as a neutral. And I LOVE this Swatch Watch. Don’t you? It is hot and great for summer. Give it to someone in your family who likes to stand out. They call this colour Fresh Papaya. Delish! Click here.

E-readers are all the rage and Mr Woog wants in. He likes the thought of browsing for books (probably while sitting on the toilet) choosing a title and reading it without moving. That man LOVES reading. When I first met him he was working in a bookstore. But that is a story for another day. This eReader is from Sony. It is super lightweight and is as close as a reading a real book as you can get on a screen. Please note the real books look much better than the mock up of my soon to be released Style Guide.

Harry (7) has been nagging me about Hot Wheels Wall Tracks and so, being such a wonderful mother that I am, I did a little investigating. It is a Hot Wheels Track that hangs on the wall!

It took a long time to find a site that had stock, but eventually I did. You are welcome! Click Here.

I remember a few years ago when my Dad gave us all electric toothbrushes for Christmas. Just letting you know. But I would have been much happier with this little number. The UltraSonic Cleansing Brush is new in Australia and claims…..

This technology works with the natural elasticity of the skin to deeply cleanse and gently exfoliate. This will ‘unclog’ your pores, your skin texture will improve, giving you a youthful glow.Your serums and moisturisers will be more effective too, because when they are applied to a clean palette they can sink right down to the deep layers and do their job!

In the interest of all things disclosury, The Woogettes were sent this to try. Problem is I think we are the only family in the world without a gaming consol.
