    Lol I would get everyone vouchers if I could but this hasn't gone down well in the past - I think my family find it lazy, like I couldn't care less. I also don't like people to know how much I have spent hehe. If i can get bargains then they can get more!

    She did get a bargain actually - Argos were doing their £5 voucher for every fifty pounds spent and £10 for every hundred!
    (I know staff are forbidden to do this, but I split the total spend into three separate transactions and she got vouchers for £25! ) Thats top secret mind - she should have only got £10!
    theres a top tip for you all when this promo is on - split the amounts if you can!

    btw hun - considering what you have on your plate right now - your family should consider themselves darn lucky if they get vouchers - surely they dont expect you to be pressie hunting now?:)
  • I haven't read through all the replies, but I ask my sisters to let me know what their kids want. If your siblings aren't forthcoming with that I would buy each child a gift voucher for Argos or a local toy store. In my opinion, kids love being able to go out and spend their own 'money' :D If your siblings aren't happy with that then tough if they didn;t come up with any suggestions of their own!
