50th Birthday

Hi My friend (known since school days) is 50 shortly. We always buy each other something and spend about £15 . As its her 50th I want to spend about £30 or perhaps a bit more on something nice. She doesnt have any particular hobbies, but she does like wildlife documentries and tigers especially, likes shopping, and a glass of wine. Really stuck on what to buy her . Any ideas?

Handbag or decent purse. My personal favourite is a voucher for a massage, hairdo or something to pamper me.0

How about including a scrapbook of your friendship?
You can include photos, stories, little mementoes, messages from other friends.
Then you can spend the rest of the money on something she likes but she'll also have a really special personalised 50th present.0 -
How about a magazine gift subscription (you can get the National Geographic for <£20) and some flowers?Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

How about a wine tasting/ vineyard tour day? I bought one from M and S a while ago for about £30 for 2 people. 0 -
Yes or even a shopping tour with a guide in a nearby city shes never been to before.0
