Anniversary Ring

I need to go out and buy the wife an anniversary present tomorrow, and would love some advice!

She wants a ring, white gold, possibly eternity (?). I have only about £100 to spend as I'm still out of work (redundancy last year). It's our 5th anniversary.

Any suggestions for either places to buy, or even specific rings? I live in Birmingham, and the date it's needed for is the 14th!

Cheers!

    Argos has quite a lot of reasonably priced rings in white gold :)

    Thanks for the suggestions. I did think about the jewelery quarter, but figured it'd be more expensive?

    It's significantly cheaper than retail prices ;)

    There are loads. Just have a wander and look around until you see something you like.
