Selfless Brits love to treat their loved ones to little surprises – saying this feeling of giving makes them feel better than a long soak in the bath, or cooking their favourite meal.
A survey of 2,000 adults found that one in four enjoy “a spring in their step” for the rest of the day after surprising someone, while 34% say it helps boost their own mood.
The top ways in which those polled like to surprise others is through a new experience (28%) or activity (20%) – while 18% will simply spoil them by treating them to an unexpected biscuit when making them a hot drink.
