Selfridges launch a personal shopping service for online shoppers
Stuck for gift ideas? Selfridges 'elves' will do the hard work, just book a one-to-one virtual appointment
Selfridges has introduced an online personal shopping service, with the natty name of 'Elfridges'.
So if you thought personal shoppers were just for high rollers, think again.
The Selfridges 'Elfridges' gifting service - which is also available in stores by appointment - is complimentary and caters to all budgets and needs, with free UK delivery on orders over £30.
Christmas shopping just got simple and stress-free.
Selfridges gifting gurus are available for one-to-one virtual appointments, to help you find the perfect gifts for friends and family, whether you're looking for something extra special or want to play it safe.
From grandparents to new arrivals, partners or pets, just complete a form to describe who the gift or gifts are for, and any areas of interest, and Selfridges 'elves' will get to work.
The personal shoppers offer a pre-consultation call to have a chat through requests in more detail, so they can pull together some bespoke options, and then present gift ideas over a video call.
