More than half of respondents said they would be giving essentials, such as clothes, food or money. According to a September survey of more than 1,000 adults to gauge expectations for the holidays, they found that more than 39 percent of those surveyed said they’d be saving money instead of buying gifts. Allocadia, a marketing performance management company that researches shopping trends, said consumers are especially focused on utility in 2020 - and that’s if they’re giving gifts at all. Gwyneth Paltrow’s website is offering more products that can be used at home, such as puzzles and games, and fewer that require physical travel. But they’ll also find more practical ideas priced at $100 or less. Over at Goop’s annual “ Ridiculous but Awesome” gift guide, shoppers can still buy a $1,995 Ouija board or a $4,519 arcade game console stacked with retro games (that’s already sold out!). In 2020, as Americans struggle with unprecedented job losses due to the coronavirus pandemic, at least a few of those lists look a little different.įor instance, at Neiman Marcus, a company that’s offered fantasy gifts for 61 years, big purchases such as the custom library come with a $10,000 donation to the charitable Heart of Neiman Marcus Foundation, which is supporting the Boys and Girls Clubs of America. The retailer is one of several companies that produces a gift guide, starring some outrageously expensive items, every year around this time. Or just send her the link to this guide.It’s the marquee product on the 2020 list of Neiman Marcus’s fantasy gifts. ![]() I’m sure you’ll have time to get your shopping to your assistant. Because we all have games rooms in our house.ħ) She’s an unorganized “disaster” this year and that’s why her gift guide is going up soooo late. Gwynie thinks it’s “perfect for hitting the games room after dinner”. Unless I’m gluten-free, if someone got this for me as a gift I’d just be like “no”.Ħ) Hermés isn’t just all clothes, shoes and bags, they also make a deck of cards. No onto the rest of the gift guide (what us grown-ups won’t be getting because we’re not billionaires like Paltrow).ĥ) Gwynie thinks a “good gift” is a monthly subscription box of gluten-free vegan products. See her gift picks.Ĥ) Ryder Hudson clearly wants to be a hockey player when he grows up. Guess Blue Ivy wasn’t down…Ģ) Gwyneth’s son Moses Martin wants a hamster for Christmas.ģ) Violet Affleck is really into surfing. There’s Ryder ( Kate Hudson‘s son) and Violet ( Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner‘s daughter). But here are 7 things we learned for this year’s GOOP gift guide:ġ) That “panel of young sophisticates” is made up of Paltrow’s kids AND a few other familiar celeb children. Maybe she’s trying to compete with her “friend” Jay Z and his Barney’s collab? Who knows. From the gifts she “thinks” we want, to the “panel of young sophisticates” she enlists to pick out the kids items, we’d say Gwynie has officially out done herself in the “I’m better than you” department. But it’s not just the insanely high prices that make this years list her most pretentious one yet. Gwyneth Paltrow‘s annual GOOP gift guide is here and no one is surprised that it’s absurd. ![]()
