Here's a Very cheap pressie suggestion for a teacher or similar

I always buy a Christmas edition of a word search magazine or other puzzle mag for our school lollypop lady. They usually come with a free pen and are less than two pounds. I think it makes a nice, different small gift ;)

You could always pad it out with a bar of chocolate or something smelly if you wanted to spend a bit more :D
A dog is for life not just for Christmas.
How about a rescue dog?

  • That's a great idea, rescuedogs - as the son of a teacher, I know that would be much appreciated and stand out from the boxes of chocs!

    Brilliant idea, like Joe the flyinggerbil (what a great name!) I am the daughter of a teacher and while it's nice to get chocs and smellies (I live with the parents and we get a 6 month supply which is then topped up in the summer!) it's great to get something different and this will give teacher's something different for over the hols.

    What a great idea for a stocking filler too!
