The 27 Best Friends Gifts To Get Your Ultimate Gal Pal

by | Nov 22, 2019 | Gifts

Shopping for loved ones can tricky but this year it doesn’t have to be. Whether they binge-watch 90s sitcoms, have more plants than friends or are your work-wife who just so happens to have a coffee addiction, we’ve got a gift for them. And the best part is, there’s guaranteed to be a gift to suit your pocket.

For the friend whose kids have paws

Your friend has their furry critters all over their Insta and can’t tell you enough about their kids, err, pets latest antics. Bring them the gift of laughter and fetch with an adorable ball that will have both owner and dog smiling from ear to ear. Or a treat for their canine friend will go down swimmingly too and who wouldn’t want a doormat that represents their true feelings.

For the friend that’s also a colleague

You only see them from Monday to Friday but life wouldn’t be as entertaining without them. Help fuel their coffee addiction with a novelty mug (psst, save and get two for R100). Or help them stick to deadlines with a handy planner and catch up after a rough week with a glass of gin.
