    Yeah we need to kind of know who its for - ie sex and age wise. Id suggest some nice little relaxing smellys for the bath, a nice warm blanket, maybe some pjs, socks, slippers, cute hot water bottle or wheat bag, cup with hot choccie sachets in it or bottle of plonk, maybe some candles

  • For a mum and sister i would do

    Face Masks,

    Smelly candles,

    Totes slipper or i found some really nice thick socks with a 3d animals on them for £1.50 in Primark. There are really soft, thick and look really luxurious. They have them in crean and pink with a 3d cat on, black and white marks with a cow on and a couple others i cant remember.

    Choccies

    Either a hot choccie mug or a bottle wine depending on what what they prefer

    Maybe a dvd, a book by their fave author or some mags

    Hot water bottle or wheat bag

    Depending on how much you plan to spend, I would highly recommend the spa lights, for anyone considering making a bath/pamper hamper. They come in packs of 2, although Avon are doing a set of 3 colour changing ones for £6 (check their catalogue for prices).

    They are basically little plastic lights which you can either stick to the wall using the suckers included or you can have them floating around in the water.

    I bought 4 for my Mum in her hamper last Xmas and I also bought a set for myself (off my OH) and they are really good. I have had a few *relaxing* baths with them on and you really feel like your in a posh spa, with the lights out and just them glowing!

    Also, Wilkinson sell small battery operated tealight candles, which are ideal as a safe alternative to candles. Placed in a frosted holder, they flicker like a real candle and you don't have to worry about fire. They are 99p and are stocked with the Christmas decorations.

    Apparently Primark have lovely expensive looking throws/blankets and snuggle socks, and they definitely have lovely PJs for a fiver or less.

    Good luck!
  • in our dunelm mill in gloucester they had some nice knitted throws in the reduced section.

    Poundland are doing bath pillows again with the suckers on the back and they are also doing spa lights which float in the bath, £1 for a pack of two.
