Christmas vouchers are a hit!

The 4BR Christmas Vouchers are proving to be a great hit — and the perfect gift for a brass band lover on the 25th!

4BR
 

The launch of the 4BR Christmas Vouchers has proved to be a huge hit — with plenty of people taking the opportunity to buy a trouble free gift in plenty of time for the big day on the 25th.

Perfect

4BR Director Anthony Banwell said: "We wanted to help people be able to get one of those last minute presents for the person they think has just about everything in the banding world. Now you can get the perfect something from 4BR — all at the click of a mouse."

Good news

The good news is that there is still plenty of time to get your regular 4BR Christmas shopping done too — our little Welsh Elves are still on overtime getting the CDs, DVDs, books and music out.

Anthony added: "We will try our very best to get all the orders out in time to reach you before Christmas — and those vouchers are even easier — you can get them right up to the very last minute!"

Perfect

So forget about running around the shops to get one of those CDs you think someone may like — just log in and give them the voucher that they can use to get something they really want — and its a great way to buy a birthday prezzie or New Year gift as well.
