    My mum wants some Armani Diamonds body lotion.
    I gave it to her one year in her stocking as I got it free when I bought the perfume, now she keeps asking for it but it's about £20....a bit hefty with everything else on her list!
    If anyone has seen it cheap - or even the perfume gift set cheap that would be great!

    Also, has anyone seen the Dualit milk steamer anywhere? It's £45 in Lakeland but was hoping to find it cheaper!
    Just bought Pa the senseo pod coffee maker but unlike the Tassimo it doesn't do milk....didn't think that would be an issue but then Pa started going on about the frothy milk - gah! I've got no budget for a milk steamer but can't find anything else that heats and steams milk??
    Look on ebay, lots of body lotion on there. I guess people get it in sets and dont want it so sell it. :)

    Just done Santa list with DD. She is 4 and despite my asking what she wanted before I started buying she has come up with three new things on her list of 3. *sigh* So now I need a sylvanian families caravan (got the car) dancing Dora whatever that may be and a skate park thing which I have sourced. Any help with ideas/prices for the other two?

    The caravan is £30 on Amazon, can't help with Dora sorry as there is so much Dora stuff that my brain can't differentiate :o
    Despite the name, I'm actually a laydee!

    I am making hamper presents for family with the goodies I have got from Boots, Debenhams,Whittards etc and wondered if anyone could help me find some nice boxes to put them in. Maybe something Christmassy or something that could be used again. Any ideas? Thanks!
