picking up Nisa’s gift solution which comprises a bottle of Co-op Prosecco, a Thorntons

Classic chocolate box, and a mixed bouquet of flowers for £20.

“The £20 gifting solution provides an option for those looking to really spoil their loved one

this year and comprises all the gifts synonymous with Mother’s Day into one effortless

bundle, taking the stress out of shopping,” said O’Hearne.

Nisa’s upcoming One Week Deal, running from 23 rd – 29 th March provides yet another gifting option for any gin lover, offering a £2.49 saving to shoppers on a 70cl bottle of Gordon’s Passionfruit Gin which is just £14.

“Mums can sometimes be difficult to buy for and many customers won’t have a particular gift in mind so will be actively on the lookout for gifting suggestions. And so, we’re encouraging Nisa partners to utilise our dedicated point of sale material in a high footfall area of their store to really draw attention to what is on offer,” added O’Hearne.
