Men shopping for Christmas presents.

Look closely in jewellery and perfume shops in the next few days and you should notice panicked men, scratching their heads and wondering what to get their significant others as Christmas presents this year. Some will play it safe and opt for a voucher or maybe a cash present, while others will have received clear instructions well in advance of Christmas morning. I spent some time on the streets of Cork, Ireland, trying to find out what men are buying for their wives and partners this Christmas and I also went shopping with a personal shopper to get some expert advice.
