Post Date - Dec 6, 2022

The holiday season is here! While all is merry and bright, it can be hard to gather gift ideas for all your loved ones. To help out with that, NTB Trucking has created a list of great gifts for anyone in your life. These gifts don’t require wrapping paper and a bow – they’re experiences for your loved ones to enjoy.

A weekend getaway

Sometimes, the holiday season leaves us feeling a bit tired. What better gift for someone to receive during the holidays than the promise of a weekend getaway? Apps like Vrbo and Air BnB make reserving accommodations easier than ever. And since they’re all over the country, options for where you can stay are endless! A cozy cabin nestled in the mountains, a relaxing beach villa, or an exciting trip to the city are all a few clicks away. Gift someone in your life what everyone is always dreaming about: a perfect vacation!

Subscription box

This is the gift that keeps on giving! Subscription boxes are for anyone, at any stage of life. They can be purchased through almost any type of company: coffee, health and wellness, toys, wine – even bacon! Signing up just once and entering your loved one’s address will ensure that they get a special package in the mail each month full of things they love. A subscription box service takes all the stress out of the gift buying process. Better yet, it’s something your loved one can enjoy beyond the holiday season.

Spa treatment/massage

Is there someone in your life in need of some rest and relaxation? Gifting them a spa treatment or massage is sure to make this the best holiday season yet. Find a spa or massage center local to you and easily book an appointment for your loved one! This is a great gift idea for that person in your life who has a lot on their plate and never seems to be able to take a few moments to themselves. Most people don’t splurge on this sort of thing for themselves, making it a perfect gift.

Concerts/live shows

After the pandemic made concerts and other live shows impossible for over a year, most people are itching to get back to live performances. Now, a wide variety of artists are going on tour into 2023. Finding out the favorite music artist, comedian, or other live performer of your loved one and securing them tickets to a show is a gift they’ll never forget and truly appreciate.

Pottery class

This is a fun gift idea for that person in your life who loves art, enjoys trying new things, or isn’t afraid of getting their hands dirty. Pottery studios are more common than one may think, and you’ll more than likely be able to find one local to you. Signing up your loved one for a weekend pottery class is an easy way to put a smile on their face this holiday season. And this gift experience is a two for one – they’ll get to take home whatever they make in the class!
