The Perfect Gift for the Imperfect Season

The Perfect Gift for the Imperfect Season

“It’s the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you be of good cheer
It’s the most wonderful time of the year”

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
   –  Andy Williams/ Eddie Pola/George Wyle

The Holidays are here!

With its picturesque, greeting card imagery of peaceful family get-togethers and children playing merrily around the tree, this season holds the promise to be the most wonderful time of the year. Yet for many, the eleven months between last season has passed too quickly, and most “wonderful” is more appropriately replaced by “craziest”, “stressful” or most “dreaded”.

The Imperfect Season

The winter holiday season provides the perfect storm for stress and anxiety. The days are shorter, the crowds are bigger, and time is fleeting. With year-end deadlines at work, parties to attend, gifts to buy and relatives to see, even the jolliest of us can turn into Scrooge.

Consumer Reports National Research Center found that 90% of Americans could note at least one thing they stress over during the holidays. I’m sure Canadians can relate as well. When it came to top holiday dreads, the survey found:

  1.   Crowds and long lines: 68%
  2.   Gaining weight: 37%
  3.   Getting into debt: 37%
  4.   Gift shopping: 28%
  5.   Traveling: 25%
  6.   Seeing certain relatives: 24%
  7.   Seasonal music: 23%
  8.   Disappointing gifts: 19%
  9.   Having to attend holiday parties or events: 16%
  10.   Having to be nice: 15%

The Perfect Gift

Because it involves time, money and thought, the stress involved with gift shopping takes on special significance. We’ll spend hours online. We’ll battle crowds at the mall. We’ll wrack our brains and max out our credit cards all in pursuit of the perfect gift. But we’re here to help!

We may not be able to minimize all of your holiday stress, but PolarMade can definitely assist with the shopping. When it comes to a finding a gift that’s thoughtful, beneficial and won’t break the bank—SnowPeeler fits the bill. Think of SnowPeeler as a premier snow rake – a perfect gift that:

  • Is safe and easy to use – by you, your spouse, teens and seniors
  • Promotes healthy outdoor exercise, keeping you fit through the winter
  • Protects the investment you’ve accrued in your home by minimizing winter’s damaging effects

When it comes to the perfect gift – SnowPeeler won’t disappoint. It’s more thoughtful than a gift card and more useful than that ugly holiday sweater. It’s a gift that will be around for many seasons to come.
