One gift, 170 ways to use it: The easiest holiday shopping fix for Prague locals

Every December, the same traditions come back around again, and it’s not just lighting menorahs, trimming trees, and decorating freshly baked perník. It also means finding the right gift for holiday parties, gift exchanges, secret Santas, and all the other giving that’s ahead.

Expats have additional challenges that can make choosing something thoughtful feel like a lot of guesswork. Many of the people on your list are new acquaintances, colleagues from different countries, or neighbors whose tastes and traditions you’re still figuring out.

That’s where the OC Nový Smíchov gift card comes in handy. It’s quickly and easily purchased from a vending machine or their assistance kiosk in the mall, and it's value isn’t confined to just one place. Recipients can use it at more than 170 shops, cafés, and services, turning the stress of holiday gifting into a simple, flexible option they can rely on all year. 

From fashion favorites like Zara, Massimo Dutti, Mango, GANT, and GAP, to top beauty brands such as Sephora, Estée Lauder, and MAC, this gift card has you covered. It can also be used for experiences like a dental checkup, a sushi night, or even everyday essentials like groceries.

OC Nový Smíchov is much more than a shopping mall, it’s a place to plan a whole evening out, whether you want to catch a movie, enjoy a meal with friends, or treat someone to dessert. From a casual dinner to coffee dates, choose a spot to shape the night exactly how you want it: low-key, celebratory, or something in between.

Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated. Treat someone to a relaxing facial, get your nails done with friends, or explore what’s hit the beauty shop shelf. However you use it, it’s an easy step toward feeling your best—and a thoughtful way to give someone else the same chance.

A gift card for a dental appointment? OC Nový Smíchov has made it happen. Use it to purchase vitamins, a workout session, or even new activewear to help keep you fit and motivated throughout the year, without making healthy habits feel like a chore.

Sometimes convenience really is the best gift. It’s ideal for someone who needs support with practical stops—groceries, essentials, shoe repairs, even a quick car wash—to help them take care of small tasks and keep their week running smoothly. 

Some people are so adventurous that it feels hard to find a gift that suits their adrenaline. The versatility of this card can help them pick up gear for hiking, a spontaneous trip, or a day exploring the city, giving them the freedom to choose their next endeavor and prepare for wherever’s next.

Without feeling too generic, a gift card opens the door to shops and services that let people put a personal stamp on their day. Think photo prints, flowers, stationery, toys, party supplies, or quirky finds you stumble upon by chance. 

When it’s time for a style reset, the gift card gives you room to explore outside of your closet, or take the guesswork out of picking the right size for loved ones. No need to choose between fashion trends, it lets the recipient walk the runway of their choice.

Whether it’s a coffee, a check-up, or a night out, the OC Nový Smíchov gift card gives people the freedom to choose what works for them. Practical, flexible, and easy, it’s a gift that fits right into life in Prague.
