    How about Boots - they have literally hundreds of things on 3 for 2 and loads up to £5. They have a good combinations of gents, ladies and alcohol/choccies etc so should be plenty choice.

    If you bought 201 gifts on the 3 for 2 you would pay for 134. So lets say theoretically that they all cost exactly £5 each that would be a cost of £670 as opposed to £1000.

    You would also get boots advantage points - 670x4=2680 and 1200 points extra today/tomorrow would be 3880 points - worth £38.80 to you at the very least.
    You could also do it in multiple orders to take full advantage of the extra 1200 points for a £50 spend so you could end up with many more points.

    (no doubt if I've got this wrong someone will point it out pretty sharpish)

    www.Boots.com

    Happy shopping - I'm sure many people would get very excited at the prospect of buying 200 gifts:)

    I have had a look at Boots but haven't seen much - Stuff I like starts at £6
    I really have no idea. Would be nice to get something useful but then again for the budget maybe not :rotfl:

    I like the idea of a nice compact mirror, manicure set... Oh the presents aren't for me?? :o:rotfl:
  • Depends how serious you want the gifts to be, but you could have a great time picking out a few from here

    How about Bodyshop ,they have their "cubes" on offer just now. Normally £5 each but you can get 2 for £9 ,3 for £12 or 4 for £14.
    There is usually a code on the codes forum or if you buy a Love Your Body Card then 20% off . Also spend £25 get a free body butter (for yourself!)
    There is a similar offer on their Shower Gels'
