How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

The Best Gifts Can’t Be Wrapped! ~ $100 Breakaway Experiences GC

in Everyday on 11/22/18

Gift giving.  ‘Tis the season!  Have you made your list?  Checked it twice?  Do you know what you will be gifting your Hubby, your Dad?  That teen who doesn’t like anything?  When I give a gift I pride myself on finding not just a gift to fill the box under the tree, I want to give a present that makes the recipient smile, that they will remember, that passes along the warm fuzzies.  In other words, I  want the perfect present.  That’s not so much to ask. Ha! Do you know how hard that is to find?  Thanks to Breakaway Experiences finding a gift that will make your loved one jump for joy, smile so hard their faces hurts and make you feel like a million bucks just got a whole lot easier.

Here’s what I know:

  • Breakaway Experiences has embraced the ever-growing popularity of “once-in-a-lifetime” and “bucket list” experiences.  They offer certificates for a remarkable variety of unique experiences—from luxurious spa packages and gourmet food tours to the more adventurous experiences like stock car racing, helicopter flying lessons and sea doo expeditions.  Yes for real, stock car racing!
  • Did you leave your shopping to the last minute? Not to worry, with Breakaway Experiences you have access to Instant Gifting. You can buy their present any time of day and instantly print it up to put in a card or simply email them. Ohhh I bet I could do half my Christmas shopping without even getting off my couch!
  • Really stuck for what to buy that loved one?  You can direct that person to the Breakaway Experience website and have them create a Christmas Wish List for the things they really want.
  • Certificates to Breakaway Experiences never expire.
  • Really not sure what your loved one would enjoy?  That’s okay!  Breakaway Experiences offers a hassle-free exchange policy, and they can simply trade it for the full value of the original certificate.

Here are a few experiences that caught my eye:

Niagara on the Lake Wine Tours

Niagara on the Lake, ON
The Niagara region is home to some of the most beautiful vineyards in the world. Join an intimate guided tour through the wonderful world of Niagara wines.

Stock Car Racing Experience

Peterborough, Hamilton, London, Fredericton, Halifax, Medicine Hat, Saskatoon
Slide behind the wheel of a race primed stock car for some high octane, adrenaline-fueled stock car racing fun. Strap in, buckle up, and hang on for the racing experience of your life!

Swim Like A Mermaid

Toronto, Ottawa, Edmonton and Montreal

Aerial Adventures

Kelowna, Nanaimo, Victoria, Vancouver
Unleash your wild side and swing and jump across cargo nets, tightropes, rope swings, swinging logs, wobbly bridges, and more. These aerial adventures make for the perfect family outdoor adventure!

With just a click you can browse through the Breakaway Experiences site, searching the many options by Experience Type, Occasion, or Recipient.  You can even narrow down your results by searching experiences available in your area.  Having trouble deciding what would be the perfect gift for your loved one?  A gift card is always a good idea – your recipient can choose their own adventure!

I know I couldn’t choose my favourite adventure and this is why I’m thrilled to be able to offer one lucky reader of How To Survive Life In The Suburbs a $100 Gift Card to Breakaway Experiences!  Yes, one of you will be able to choose your own experience or put that gift toward the experience of your dreams!  To enter, please go check out Breakaway Experiences and then come back and tell me; which experience would you choose!

      If I won, it would be a gift for my dad. After many years of being “crew chief” for his friend, I know he would love the chance to get behind the wheel of a race car. The stock car racing experience would be so fantastic for him.

And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom 

I promise - once you try #HomeExchange you will never look at travel the same way again! Follow the link in my bio for all the deets. ❤️

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.

If you want to travel more often and live like a local, you need to check out @homeexchangecom.
