I would be delighted too. Could you get them something else to go with it?

Yes, I've made her some presents as well but wanted to get her something nice from a shop to go with them! This lady (a close relative) likes the obscure and the unusual - she always makes a huge effort and delights me with her amazing presents that are always exactly right.
I don't think she'd appreciate something that was seen to be so readily available! Perhaps I'm being too harsh as I personally would be delighted to be at the receiving end of this S&G - in fact I will be, and can't wait for Wednesday when I collect mine. The packaging alone is brilliant and I actually need everything in there.
It's good to hear other people's viewpoints.

oos online but am a cruel wife and send oh on a 1mile dirvert walk home to get me one (local has quite a few i rang them) If you are wondering why I say I am cruel we are in south wales and in my garden I have 11 1/2 inches of snow - well if he insists on a lunchtime xmas do in the snow i will ask him to do silly things lol

I know...its crazy....I set my alarm to wait outside boots in Neath this morning, but couldn't get out the front door...Hope you're OH managed to pick you one up. I rang Neath last night and she told me they had plenty, and assuming with all this snow, no one would be daft enough to go out!

Why not order online, then that should give you a couple of days to get shovelling in the meantime!

wow what a fab idea!!!! i love that may do something similar for my friends ones as the box/tote does look a little empty when first opened would just pad it out a bit! thanks for the idea

What a fantastic prezzie, I can just imagine a pink bathrobe and slippers - they make bathrobes so soft now, not like that scratchy towelling stuff they used to be made of.
