I agree, definitely get cellophane from Ebay. I got 10m of gold cellophane for just over £5 including delivery. It arrived incredibly quickly and came with lots of free gold curling ribbon. I got mine from this seller:

Hey all,

Working on those photo printing suggestions, thanks. With the possible RM strike and my reliance on shopping online I'm trying to get a move on and get some more stuff ordered ASAP. My love affair with play continues and most online stores that offer free delivery. A quick browse and I've spotted

Cosy Rug. Great for the old folks.

Grumpy old git t-shirt. Another one for the older generation.

cereal killer t-shirt for the cornflake muncher in the family.

No I will not fix your computer t-shirt for the geeks. At £4.99 including delivery I bought a couple of these.

Aircurve speaker for the iphone obsessed young people

Pride Prejudice Zombie Romance. A classic!

thanks everyone will have a look for the tealights this week. Like to have them as lots of little nieces and nephews visit at christmas and dont want to be worrying that they will knock the candles etc.

Just got back from local garden centre and it was like sanas grotto, all the decorations in , lights on music playing. Last week there wasnt a sniff of christmas, thought id been on fast forward or something. was really lovely though. Got a couple of tree decorations but thats all as its quite expensive in there but couldnt go home empty handed either

I need an idea for another cheap 'jokey' type gift please?? So far I have a ball of life (wrapped tennis ball), a wrapped toilet roll, a pot of gold but I need another idea.. it's for my parents for their 'share' gifts..

last year i got my mum and dad a pair of mugs one said (i think, i cant remember word for word too many months gone by) "old fart" the other said "old farts wife. got them from studio cards but you could probably get similar ones from other places i would have thought.
