Whether you’re stuck in lockdown as the COVID delta variant wreaks havoc on our nation or you’re separated from your loved ones for other reasons, it’s become increasingly difficult to celebrate special occasions together.

Gone are the days of family barbecues and drinks with friends replaced instead with celebrations over video call.
While we can down a martini on Zoom as quickly as we can in real life, gift giving is a whole other story.
The art of picking the perfect present has changed in the post-pandemic world, and we can’t just pop to the shops in a last minute dash or carefully wrap and exchange the gift ourselves.
Luckily, there are a number of online stores and services who do a range of gifts and tasty treats that can be directly delivered to your loved ones’ doors no matter the occasion.
