Out of time? We’ve got you covered.

A Beer Bods subscription.

This is a great deal – £36 for 12 different craft beers, sent all at the same time (no annoying mornings spent waiting for the postman!) and a tweet-along Thursday tasting club. It's a one-off payment, and they'll email you the voucher to print off. If you have a bit more time, they'll post it to you instead.

Chelsey writes: "12 weeks, 12 beers, £36. If that sounds too good to be true, pinch yourself and think again. The delightful beer subscription service delivers 12 craft beers at once, to be enjoyed on a 12 week basis - stay accountable by keeping up with BeerBod’s guiding social accounts."

Flowers through the the post.

Interflora are reliable, not too expensive and do lovely blooms. They're also accepting orders online until 11am on Christmas Eve. The Christmas Bag is the cheapest option at £26, but I think the £30 Winter Perfect Gift is good value – you get the vase included.

If you want something a bit different, I'm a huge fan of Bloom and Wild. Their arrangements are packed to fit through a letterbox and start at £20. Order by 19 December for free Christmas delivery, and 22 December is their latest delivery date.

A book token.

Who doesn't love a book token? And for a small fee (£1.99) you can ~personalise~ it with a photo or text of your choice. Vouchers start at £5 and delivery is via Royal Mail. For the truly last-minute, they're running a post-Christmas delivery service. "A limited delivery service will be in operation in the week immediately after Christmas."

An Escape The Room challenge.

Most "Escape the Room" challenges will do you a group booking if you email them. My particular favourite is Time Run, but here's a list of some of the best ones all over the UK:
