I'm a huge bookworm and love sharing my love of books! So I've been buying book vouchers for £1-£5 and hiding them in or around bookshops, so someone can maybe treat themselves to a new read.
I especially like hiding them in the self-help section, where folks might need a bit of a cheer up. I was delighted the other day when a local bookshop posted to say that a not well-off customer had found one of these tokens, and it had enabled her to buy a gift for her mother. It was so lovely to find out that someone who needed it, found it!
