We’ve all been there. Christmas day gets closer and closer and there are still a few people you’ve yet to snag gifts for. We get it. Some people have particular tastes.

To help keep you sane and your Christmas tree brimming with gifts for everyone, we’ve put together this little wish list of items you can pick up right here in Cape Girardeau.

For the busy person who has everything…
We’ve never known anyone to turn down a massage. Luckily there are several spas and salons around Cape Girardeau that offer a slew of luxury services. Consider a facial for your stressed-out friends, a pedicure for those who can’t seem to get off their feet or go for the gold with a full-body experience. The holidays tend to leave everyone a little tense, so they’ll thank you for the chance to escape the hustle and bustle.

For the friend with weird hobbies…
There is absolutely no shame in getting someone a gift card. But going for the big-box stores is a little on the nose. Throughout Cape Girardeau, there are a variety of shops that offer unique items for nearly all hobbies – and most of them also offer gift cards. Comics? There’s a store for that. Fishing? You bet. Makeup? Of course! Giving a specialized gift card to a local store is more personal and memorable than one that’s limited to an online experience.

For the niece and nephew…
So many toys, where do you even start? You have to avoid the loud ones because you know the batteries will come out immediately. You could try something popular, but what if someone else has the same idea? Instead of another toy, consider gifts that keeps on giving: annual passes! Both the Discovery Playhouse and Cape Splash Family Aquatic Center offer certificates for repeatable admission. For the super active children in your life, Ultimate Air Trampoline Park offers Ultimate Air Gift Cards or check out Safari Playland and gift a ride on the two-story zipline!

For the sentimental relative…
You don’t have to have a creative bone in your body to create something amazing in Cape Girardeau. There are classes and sessions all over town that can show you how to create one-of-kind jewelry, personalized wooden signs and more! Our office also carries several items with a Cape Girardeau theme if you want to celebrate one of the greatest towns ever…
