World Cup Fever Hamper!!

DaisyMoo

Yes, I'm at it again! It's my brother's birthday this month and I was struggling to come up with a gift, so I decided to put together a World Cup hamper as he is football mad!!
Now, the thing is, I will have to send the hamper to Ireland so it can't be too heavy. He will be 27 but is a big kid really

Ideas so far are:

World Cup wall chart
The sticker book with some packs of stickers (he was absolutely crazy about these when we were kids!)
A pint glass
Some kind of drinking game

If anyone has any suggestions, I would be very grateful. Also, I am kind of struggling with what to put it all in, as I think a basket would not go down well!!

As always, thank you lovely people xx :beer:

Ps: No Henry Jokes! Unless it is some kind of voodoo doll I can put in there :rotfl:

In a beer fridge, or an old beer crate?

You'll prob get a better response over on the special occasions board as I've seen ideas for hampers on there all the time. There's a thread in there somewhere which has a whole list of stuff for using as the actual hamper. Link to board . How about a cool box or one of those cool bags that you can freeze? I have a small one but it still holds 6 cans. This one holds 48 so would fit lots of stuff.

One of the big sports shops are doing England Football car kits £3.29 instead of £32 plus - i got one and they're really good.

Nice, however grabbit is for (as the name suggests) short term grabbits and not requests. This isn't, so the special occasions board would have been better.

Tescos have some free world cup stickers in at the moment. (Skipton Branch) Believe it is nationwide.

Thank you everyone - some fab ideas xx

Sorry, I know it's in the wrong place, I tried listing in the Special Occassion forum and then lost the post!! I gave up searching because I thought it was a computer glitch and the post had not gone live!! Only found it this morning :rotfl:

Apologies again & cheers for the inspiration - The cool bag is a fab idea!

How do I move the thread to the correct place?

There was lots of football stuff in Wilkinsons when I went in yesterday - they are usually pretty cheap.
