The perfect gifts for each of your friends

THE ONE THAT LOVES A DRINK

We all have that one friend that is always ready for a drink. So when they catch themselves outside and unable to sit their wine in a stable place, they will thank you for this gift. Yep, it's a picnic table for your wine glass and beer - we're obsessed!

THE ONE THAT'S ALWAYS LATE

Ah yes the one that delivers a multitude of excuses. "Sorry SO much traffic." "My mum needed me to stop by and water her flowers." "The dog ran out into the middle of the road to chase a rat that went up the tree and then the tree fell."

An A4 diary is a necessity, your friend needs every hour planned so they know what the hell they are doing for the day.

THE SELF-OBSESSED ONE

This one is easy. A 'Lumee'. If you have no idea what it is, wel congratulations you are not self-obsessed but you are very behind the times. It's a phone case with a front light for selfies. Duh.

THE ACTIVE ONE

Who doesn't have a friend that enjoys going to the gym too much? They're always like "let's go work out!" "Let's go on a hike!" NO. N. O. It is Christmas time which means it is eating and drinking only time. But you love them because they keep you healthy at least 2 months out of the year. All they want is active wear. Trust me. Lululemon has you covered.

THE CAREER ONE

For you career focused friend, we would say something for their desk. The Daily Edited has plenty on offer for under $50. A clipboard could be cute, then they could bring it to meetings with them.

THE FOREVER SINGLE ONE

Okay this could go two different ways. You could go down the joke path and get them a cardboard cut out of Chris Hemsworth or Mila Kunis. Or you could focus on how much they rock their own world. We vote option B. Spoil them. How about a massage? They say you have to love you before you can even THINK about loving anyone else so this way they have a full hour focused on themselves.
