Everyone knows that the best days start with a hot drink. Whether you are a coffee or tea lover, all too often that morning drink sinks down too quickly and upon leaving the house, you’re left instantly wishing you could replenish.
Well tradesmen and commuters in particular will be very familiar with the famous Thermos flask. A simple, yet ingenious way to keep a supply of tea, coffee or even hot chocolate for that morning commute to work. An excellent money saver, and a little bit of warmth until you make it to your place of work.
Use our product search to see a selection of Thermos Flasks.
Something that hasn’t been spared a thought until recently is our dependencies on smart phones and touch screen devices. We are made to make the all important decision whether to brave getting ice cold hands to stay connected, or keep warm and risk being out of the loop for parts of the day. What if we told you that you can now purchase gloves that keep your hands warm without losing the ability to use a touch screen device? The perfect gift for those who live in the constantly connected World!
Take a look at the selection of smart gloves available to buy through TheGivingMachine here.
Perhaps not the most fashionable of accessories this winter, but a highly conventional addition to your winter wardrobe. Why not try a pair of driving gloves to keep your hands functioning when heading out in the cold? Whether it is for the school run or a daily commute to work, nobody likes that unnerving dip in temperature whilst you wait for the car to defrost or the cold-to-touch steering wheel.
That’s why we think driving gloves offer an excellent solution to keeping your hands toasty whilst out on the road.
After a long day at work, it feels only right to run a warm bath and let the stress of everyday life float away in to the distance. Try substituting your everyday toiletries for some seasonal soaps and calming candles. It’s time to relax! Unleash those cinnamon aromas and unwind.
Nothing says “works done” like getting home and putting your feet up donning your pair of favourite slippers. Is there anyone who doesn’t love a good pair of slippers to wear around the house?

From the moment you wake up to stepping in to bed, there’s not many people out there who don’t appreciate a toasty pair of slippers to hand in the cold winter months.
Head over to our product search, where you’ll find a sublime selection of fluffy foot warmers in all shapes and sizes for men, women and children.
