Hi s23xy_c,
I think all your hampers are great and should be well received by everyone even without the extras that you have bought too.
The one for OH mum is great too and don't think you need to add anything to it at all, it looks lovely as it is.
Some good moneysaving and use of piggy vouchers too:D
I love going to boots and stocking up for free with my pigsback vouchers:T

I dont spend that much time comping at all, some days I only enter one or two while Im checking emails, other times if I have a spare night then I will spend a feww hours only entering the comps I would like to win. Its great while Im on a diet cause when Im tempted to raid the fridge I have been just going online and either looking thru this thread or entering competitions lol, keeps me occupied for a bit.
The competition thread on this site is great I love it, you should try entering a few every now and then and see what happens.
Good Luck
