Christmas on a budget
Hi everyone Not sure there is another thread like this (had a look but couldn't see any) but what I thought is to create this thread to give everyone an idea of what to buy for Christmas for the loved ones, not to break the bank and also grab some bargains. So if you would like to share what are you buying as presents for…

It' amazing that if I search for gifts, I get the usual 'findmeagift','presentfinder', and other popular ones, which offer very similar gifts.…

Christmas Tree Globe Lights (looking for)
Hello, this is a bit of a long shot, but I'm looking to replace some Christmas lights which sadly I no longer have (left abroad when I lived there).

Thinking of Giving A Stobart Club Membership for Christmas? A Word to the Wise...
Hi folks, Not at all sure which folder this belongs in but, since it's vaguely Christmas present-related here's as good as anywhere. Like thousands of others, my good lady and I relieve the monotony of long distance travel by "Eddie spotting". Last Christmas, I thought it would bring a smile to her face if I put a Stobart…

Hi all, Il try and get straight to the point. I don't have much to do with my dad but I always go and see him at christmas with a present.

Cost vs value
Hi there We have a price limit of £40 per adult for Christmas. However, I have managed to bag a bargain and get an item at the third of it's store value, therefore being well within budget.

Jigsaw roll or portapuzzle?
Hi, I'm thinking of getting some kind of jigsaw saver. I've seen ones that roll up and they are a lot less than the big board ones which fold up. Obviously the roll up ones take up less space too. I was wondering if anyone has used them and which you would opt for? Thanks :T
