When life happens, we\u2019re there for you\u2014especially during this holiday season. Homes need to be prepped for winter, gifts need to be wrapped, and celebrations are awaiting. So we thought it would be fun to play a little round of \u201cTaskrabbit Tic Tac Toe: Holiday Edition.” Here\u2019s how it works:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decking The Halls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Too busy to purchase holiday decorations at a party store, or unpack and hang the decorations from last year? Hire a Tasker to help make your space cheery<\/a> for the season. Don\u2019t have a tall enough ladder to hang lights<\/a> around the perimeter of your roof? Hire a Tasker to do it\u2014and then take them all down (whether you\u2019re the type of person who un-decks the halls a day after Christmas or well into spring!)<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real task inspiration:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI need someone to install large multi-color Christmas lights on our new home. My fiancee and I are busy moving into the home and getting ready for our wedding, and as this is our new home she has dreams of lighting up the house, and I\u2019d like your help to make that happen.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re looking for someone to make 96 Christmas tree skirts for our upcoming holiday party.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have a dry, pokey Christmas tree I need to bring down to the apartment dumpster in the garage. Because the tree is so pokey, sturdy work gloves are a must.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To play Taskrabbit Tic Tac Toe, book the following tasks to deck your halls:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decorating \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Mounting \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Cleaning<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holiday Hosting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Holiday parties are a \u201cwork hard, play hard\u201d situation. Let the Taskers do the \u201cwork hard\u201d part so you can relax and revel. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real task inspiration:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe company I work for is hosting a gift wrapping<\/a> party for our customers. Anyone who brings in an unwrapped gift can come in and get their gift wrapped while they eat cookies, drink wine, and sip hot chocolate! We are looking for Taskers to be on-site wrapping gifts.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI’m looking for a Tasker to clean my senior parents’ house prior to Christmas guests.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To play Taskrabbit Tic Tac Toe, book the following tasks for your holiday party: <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delivery \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Event Staffing \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Cleaning<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holiday Gifting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Santa gets all the credit, but hire Taskers to do your holiday shopping<\/a> for you and avoid the crowds. Bonus points if you book a Tasker to take donations<\/a> to charity during the holiday season, whether it’s gently used clothing or furniture.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real task inspiration:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLooking for a detail-oriented Tasker to put together 150 holiday gifts for our clients. This includes tying cinnamon sticks and rosemary around tea boxes, safely wrapping whiskey tumblers, etc. No gift wrapping involved.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI need help wrapping 4 boxes, but there’s a catch. This is for a game called “unwrap the gift” where a group of people race to unwrap a box that has been wrapped up 5+ times\u2013while wearing oven mitts.\u201d <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To play Taskrabbit Tic Tac Toe, book the following tasks for your holiday party: <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shopping \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Gift Wrapping \u00e2\u2020\u2019 Donation<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
