Gift for Her Under £10

I'm sure there will be another thread similar but i've tried to use the search function but i'm hopeless at it. So heres the dilemma.

This is on behalf of my best mate . Hes being seeing this lassie and they have decided to buy gifts but cheap ones under a £10. They have specified that the gift has to be funny. Now he is a funny guy but is terrible at buying gifts under pressure. He asked me for help but i dont have a clue.

I've already looked on the likes of iwantoneofthose.com in the under a tenner it but it threw up stuff like Bike spoke lights. I would find that funny but i doubt she would.

So any ideas amigos?

  • See the thing is me searching firebox or iwantoneofthose etc wont make any difference to e honest. I'm less than useless at picking presents. What i need is a womans viewpoint. What would you be happy to recieve as a gift? would it make you laugh?

    In debenhams the other day i saw a nut cracker shaped like maraget thacher for £7.50.
    That made me laugh and to make it up to a tenner he could include a bag of walnuts

    Depends on what their relationship is like but you could get edible candy underwear... i think thats quite funny... they sell them on amazon (Hmmmm do I know too much about this?) ;)
  • What about Clone-a-willy! It is a gift for both of them then! Would have to look around for cheapest price though!!!! But that would be fun!

    Ok perhaps not that funny but it is an absolute necessity for every housewife.

    ben500 funny you should say that . I was thinking a portable kitchen sink. Sexist jokes are funny (providing its not serious) and its got the added advantage that we are all going camping next april in perthshire and it would be an ideal camping accessory. What do the women think though cos no doubt its my aweful sense of humour?

    Umm... Patrick.... NO!
    Man plans and God laughs...
    Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.
