This post is sponsored by Audible, but all opinions are my own.
I don’t know about you, but our first snowfall in Toronto came pretty early this year and I was not happy. Not gonna lie, it was too damn soon. But on the bright side, snow to me means that the holidays are right around the corner, and it gave me an excuse to put up my tree a week after Halloween.
K, so since the holidays are here, it’s time to think about gifts. Listen, everyone agrees that the holidays are expensive. I mean you’re buying gifts for everyone and their uncle, of course it’s expensive. So if you’re looking for a super thoughtful present that doesn’t break the bank, keep reading.
Books. But here’s the millennial-style kicker: audiobooks. You guys know how obsessed I am with Audible.ca. It’s been a year and a half since I got it and it’s changed my life. I mean how cool is it that I get to listen to Tony Robbins while walking to a meeting? Brené Brown while brushing my teeth? Esther Perel while waiting at the airport? It’s access to whatever you fancy while doing the most mundane tasks – knowledge on the go. And honestly, what better present is there?
Here’s the thing with books, unless someone REALLY knows me or has v similar interests, I don’t care to receive books from them. Because chances are, they’re giving me something I’ll never bother to actually read. But, with Audible credits, you have free reign over what you can get. It’s giving someone the gift of knowledge… but without being obnoxious. Ya know?
So I’ve talked about Audible loads in the past, they have the largest selection of audiobooks you’ll find. Also, their ‘recommendation’ section is so smart that it veers on dangerous – I can’t look at that section and not get anything. Anyway, with the Audible Gift Centre, you have a few options. You can gift membership and 1 credit per month for 1 month, 3 months, 6 months or a full year. Pretty cool, right?
Plus, until December 31, I have a code that gives the first 50 NEW customers a free book. Head to adbl.co/IcingandGlitterand use the code SiffxAudible at checkout. There is literally no excuse not to give Audible a try!
And if you’re wondering, I’m currently listening to The Plant Paradox, which is a great book for anyone who’s into nutrition – fitting since the new year is right around the corner.
HIGHLY recommend.
