how about pamper hampers. Places like superdrugs, boots and the supermarkets to travel size lotions and potions. Between them and the pound shop you could get everything and that way you can set your budget to what you want. For the Boy just get him loads of sweets but put them in a flower pot or bucket.

A Few years ago the adults in my family all went for the secret santa. We had a budget of £25 and we all picked a name. some of the presents were so funny. WE just bought for the kids

Photos in frames like suggested is a good one! Cheap items to make up a uni hamper would be a good idea and any offers on ebay or play.com like again suggested will be helpful as all you will do is have to wrap it lol x

First off I'd knock cousins/aunts on the head.. it just seems like unnecessary expense.. if you feel you have to buy something I'd go with sweets.. there are some gorgeous boxes out there for christmas.

Adult siblings and associated in-laws.. the same.. sweets or if you know there is a particular smelly they like some of that.. They are no doubt self sufficient and have their own income.. I wouldn't buy for them at all.

Grandparents.. a box of lush looking biscuits or a fancy christmas cake.. lots come in reusable pretty tins now.. or a new dressing gown/slippers/thermals.. something useful not clutter!

MIL.. a pic of the 3 children (once baby arrives ) in their finest in a pretty frame with sweets/chocolates/smellies or something nice like a spa day for example if you are wanting to spend quite that much. I've got my mother (at 57 [or 15]) a new wheatbag, a loooong sudoku puzzle a tin of quality street and I am looking for a wacky keyring type thing so she can find her keys in her bag!

What's a sock monkey?
