Promise i won't tell her while you're at work Bertie :D...........oops ::)
   Richard, what do you think ebay is for mate? You can even ask the seller to send it to the recipient, that way you got them a pressie but don't have to send it or deliver in person & pretend you're happy too see them when really you can't wait to go!

   P.S. Either a PSP or a DS Lite will do for me. Being as you know where i am you can bring it round.

Hehe, well it was a waste of time anyway, all my family said we would just spend a tenner on each person, that just made it harder, spent 3 hours in the white rose centre and come out with naf all.

Luckily it was not as busy as I had expected. Think i'll be looking online from now on though

My inlaws family got a good idea. There are 4 brothers/sisters all married with kids, so potentially very expensive and you will prob buy something that they already have. So, Gran puts all the names in a hat and picks them out in pairs, and one buys a present for the other "from the family" Think about it, if you spend £10 each you have spent a lot, and not really got a lot for each. However if you spend say £60 on one present, you should have got something good, and that's all you spend. Plus there is a list that goes around where you can put on what you would like, so chances are you will get what you are after.  

Nice idea,

Ken

The £10 is what we are trying to do but I am finding that even more difficult, hard to find stuff for £10 thats decent!!
