The GFY Community Gift Guide 2023 - £100+

Welcome to GFY’s annual gift guide series! This is a crowdsourced project where we look to you for the best gift ideas of 2023.

The aims…

To reduce waste by giving loved ones things they want and need (strictly no Lynx Africa gift sets)
To save you money by giving high quality but affordable gifts based on recommendation. Strictly no sponsorship or affiliates.
To support independent retailers where possible

How the lists work

You submit your responses on Instagram (this happened in November)
We’ll count responses for specific items and list 10 items within each price range. Generally, people have listed a type of item as opposed to a brand e.g Bamboo socks. Where there is no consensus on a specific brand, we’ve found the best-reviewed brand within that category
No affiliates or sponsorships. These lists are compiled strictly on a recommendation-only basis. There are no affiliates.

How the links work

None of the links below are affiliate links
There are no sponsorships
Where possible we've tried to find products from independent and sustainable retailers
