The Guy’s Guide to Last-Minute Spa Gift Cards

12/17/2012 by azspagirl

A comprehensive, no excuses, procrastinator’s guide to giving spa gift cards including spa hours and suggested treatments.

Mr. Procrastinator, you’ve done it again. With Christmas day just hours away and not a present for your wife, girlfriend or mom in sight, it’s time to hit the spa! Here’s our quick guide to last-minute gift certificate shopping at top Valley spa destinations. Besides Christmas Eve hours, we’ve also included the minimum price of a 50 or 60-minute spa treatment as well as a “safe bet” spa package for every spa girl in your life.

Our suggestion is to purchase certificates at minimum, for the price of a full spa treatment (as opposed to a service in the salon) and tack on another 20% of the treatment price for gratuity. If the receiver does decide on a salon service rather than a spa treatment, she’ll have money left for lunch or a gift in the boutique. Now, hurry, time’s a wasting! Tip: Call in your gift certificate order before you make your mad dash to the spa.
