But that’s not all! To make your holiday shopping experience easier, we have gathered the best gift suggestions to find at Carrefour Rimouski.

FOR YOUNG DREAMS...

It’s a safe bet that they’ve already made their list to Santa and can’t wait to see the presents under the tree! If you’re looking for craft supplies that will stimulate their creativity, head to Canadian Tire. You’ll also find a whole range of toys and books! Do you spoil them with new pyjamas every year? You’re sure to find some cute sets at  Clément and at Carter’s, add a soft toy to your package this year, they will be delighted! For those who are bursting with energy, Sports Experts has a range of winter sports accessories to get them moving.

FOR TEENS WHO ARE ALL ABOUT COLOR...

Wow them by giving them gifts at the cutting edge of fashion. Between home schooling, lockdown and the return to the classroom, it must be said that the last few months have been far from easy. The Amnésia, Ardène, Bentley and Bizou offer a range of trendy accessories such as jewelry, scarves, caps, bags and patterned stockings that will not leave them indifferent. Your teenager has been talking to you about video games for weeks, so give them a game console they won’t forget. For your niece or your best friend’s daughter, choose the Polaroid Intax Mini camera at La Source or stock up on cute accessories. These gifts are sure to put a smile on their faces!

FOR A GOLDEN WOMAN...

Giving a gift to a woman who is very special to you can be a real headache. Of course, you could buy her something based on her passions and interests. If she likes working out, you’ll find something to please her when you visit Sports Experts. With the holidays approaching, Dans un Jardin, Yves Rocher and Pharmaprix offer an incredible selection of beauty gift sets. A new fragrance or her favorite product line should be sure to charm her! However, if you want to surprise her with an out-of-the-ordinary gift, consider giving her jewelry that represents her. Bizou, Bijouterie Mozart, Bijouterie Latendresse and Mia are full of little treasures for all budgets. For those who love to cook, the Stokes shop is a paradise where you can find everything! For a mother who has taken care of you from a distance or in lockdown, all year round, a good dose of comfort is in order at the end of the year. Why not choose decorative items from Arteq to make her space more pleasant, or even a beautiful knit from Chapelier or at  Manteaux Manteaux, which she can match with all her coats this winter? Comfortable outfits are also a must this year, and you’ll find everything you need at Lilianne Lingerie and La Vie en Rose.

FOR THE AUTHENTIC MAN...

For all the times they’ve given you a hand with work around the house or for being your moral support at important moments, the men in your life deserve to have you recognize their devotion. Thank them by giving them a gift that matches their interests. If your father is a fan of tech gadgets, stop by La Source to discover the range of cameras, tablets, wireless headphones, etc. If your brother is addicted to sports, note that Sports Experts sells all kinds of sports equipment that would make him very happy! Does your spouse always have projects in mind? Canadian Tire has everything he needs to help him with his 1001 projects. A winter coat, a fashion accessory or a nice jacket will undoubtedly make him happy. Find everything you need at Ernest, Pentagone or Vincent d’Amérique. And if he’s been good all year, a new electric razor should make him very happy. You’ll find a wide selection of devices at the Razor Center.

FOR OUR PRECIOUS TEACHERS / EDUCATORS...

2020 has been a particularly difficult year for everyone, and you want to spoil your children’s precious teachers or educators who have worked hard all year long. Ask the little ones to choose something special to give them as a little reward. An essential oil diffuser, a scented candle, a decorative cushion, a bubble bath set or a beautiful coffee mug should put a balm on their hearts. Find comforting gift ideas at Dans Un Jardin, Yves Rocher, Centre du Rasoir, Arteq and Naturiste. Or a little chocolate treat at Laura Secord.

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE EVERYTHING...

Don’t have much time to shop for Christmas presents and don’t know what to get some of your loved ones? Opt for the Comina gift card that will allow them to buy what they really want. No need to go out, you can get it from the comfort of your own home!

Happy shopping and Happy Holidays!
