    Could they all agree to give each other the naffest present they can fine, something really awefull and in the worst possible taste then they could all spent as much or as little as they like. That also works for a secret santa.
  • Im in a pretty similar situation to your DD, except i dont get EMA! lol and as a family of 7 the money doesnt spread far enough to reach me! lol

    im doing hamper style gifts, I couldnt afford lods of bowls and my friends are all musical, so i melted vinyl records into bowls in the oven which im then puting some handmade earrings (i made from FIMO have done some pacman style ones and some flowers...) then each one gets a small teddy bear (i love the tiny ones in wilkos atm, were £1 now 75p little white ones in hat and scarf but they are really cute!!
    Then they each get some choc coins thrown in (so i can make the bags of coins go further) and then i buy a "main" gift to go in, which is usually a band tee ive got of ebay for £3 or one of the freebie photomug/poster offers!

    This year (as most of my friends are at 6th form and i left for college) im doing clip frames with a large pic and loads of little ones like a border around it, then decorating the glass with glass paints.

    Its alot but i had alot of the bits around my house anyway, and its all very cheap to find!
