Pressie ideas for 14 year old Daughter!

Hi everyone,

Its my daughters birthday the day after we get back from our holiday so I have to sort out her pressies this week, Her dad and I are going halves on a Smasung D500 and I have bought her a dvd so far, I have about £50 left to spend, any ideas anyone? I would like to her have soemthing other than money/vouchers from me as other people are giving her them and I would like her to have something else to open.

She already has an MP3 player, and mostly downloads her music, she doesn't really need clothes as I have just bought plenty for our holiday next week.
Thank-you!!

Sarah

    How about a "Girly Day", pop into one of the large dept stores and book a free facial - some shops have a private room so you're not on view in the shop.They usually give a few free samples too.Have afternoon tea somewhere special and open a bank a/c (while shes with you) with the £50 so she can get her own solo card.
    Hope you have a good holiday.

    How about a photo printer to use with her samsung d500 they have a good one for only £39.99 in ASDA, a Lexmark I just got on and its great
  • My daughter loved all the pampering stuff at 14 ( not long ago) having her nails/ eyebrows done at a salon....but it has become a ritual now!

    You can also get one of those Photo shoot sessions from boots ( use your advantage card for xtra points!)....they seemed to be the rage with her friends . Good luck
    £900 towards next holiday...ta very much Mr T x

    Perfume (one of the decent ones, at around £40 sort of money, but could probably get it cheaper online) would probably do the trick, combined with one of the free facials, and buy a couple of products from that facial with the remaining tenner.

    We bought our daughter a wonderful present solver when she was 13 - a gold charm bracelet. Now if anyone is stuck they just buy her a charm!
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    Maybe she would like the money? Or even better a shopping trip with you with the money.
