    As the title suggests I may have left two presents a bit too last minute, have taken one look at that wind outside and said "fúck thaaat!" to going into town to get them.

    Its for two couples with a budget of €30 each and when I say "with codes" I mean along the lines of a voucher "code" being sent to my inbox and then I can just forward them to the recipients. Not very Christmassy I know but Im looking for online practicality.

    No RyanAir online voucher suggestions thanks, they cant even get that right ;)

    So all suggestions welcome for last minute presents (with "codes") that can be bought online today or alternatively gift tokens that can be printed off.

    Thanks in advance!

    Yours

    Last Minute Larry

    iTunes gift vouchers usually a safe bet!

    Amazon voucher. They can be sent to the person's email account or you can print it off.

    That's what I'm buying later on today.

    Amazon voucher.

    Netflix subscription.

    Spotify subscription.

    Subscription to an online magazine or newspaper you know they'll like (or to a physical magazine, you can print off the receipt and give that to them to let them know what they got).

    They're not gamers but thanks.

    Amazon is in the lead so far with the suggestions, such an obvious one I dont know why I didnt think of it. I just took it for a test run there to make sure there was no backlog with the day thats in it and a £5 gift token was delivered with no problems in about 3 minutes ;)
