23rd October saw the launch of the Myer Melbourne Giftorium launch and had Miss M heading off to launch… Ok I guess she tagged me along for the ride also. But in all realness now, big ups to Kids Business and Myer for throwing an absolutely fantastic launch together, which had my inner child and my actual child (Madison) with a smile from ear to ear!
I went to the Myer Giftorium Launch last year thanks to Kids Business again, and this was actually where I did most of my Christmas shopping as I didn’t have to leave the building for anything.
Last year saw the first ever Myer Giftorium and it seems as with everything each year it gets bigger and better. T
his year upon getting out of the lifts it was apparent that this year they had added a lot more to the Giftorium with different brands and products jumping on board.
Due to the success of the previous years Giftorium, Myer has increased the overall Giftorium footprint by 12, bringing the total Christmas offering to almost 40,000square metres across all stores this year. The myer Giftorium is a unique concept in Aussieland that will feature in every Myer store nationwide this Christmas.Most stores will not be as large and diverse as the Myer Melbourne store though, as I noticed last year my local Myer Giftorium in Northland was nowhere near as extensive at the Melbourne store.
Myer found that personalised gifts were most sought after last year so this year they have included a lot more personalised options, some of those include-
Personalised Nutella jars- A large stall in which you can have your name or a family members name written on the jar for the tiny price of $12. This was the families favorite and especially Madison’s as she was able to eat the Nutella straight from the jar. I ended up walking away with the entire family in nutella jar; one for the shelf in the kitchen not for eating purposes haha.
Personalised Art- So there were Mr Men and Little Miss personalised prints again this year. But another one they have added is the Peanuts and Snoopy personalised prints, which I think is a fantastic addition to the personalised family of prints.
Build a Bear is the first place Madison spotted and grabbed onto my hand and led me to the far side of the building to make.
Other personalised goodies- I think in all fairness personalised gifts makes it look like you’ve put a lot more thought and effort into a gift, and personally I would love to receive a personalised gift this Christmas. Some other products you can personalise in Myer Melbourne this year are: leather goods, business shirts, bathrobes, towel, Santa sacks and Christmas stockings.
There were so many areas and gifts to be purchased I could be here and start typing out a four-page essay- but that might bore you.
