If anyone has any ideas of a hamper (or anything) for a 13 year old boy please can you let me know?! Many thanks.

What is he in to? My eldest is only 5, so I'm not quite there yet, but off the top of my head -

You could do a games hamper - a new game, plentiful supply of pop and snacks type of thing, and a voucher for x hours uninterrupted access to the TV - keep your eyes open for CDwow and similar vouchers and look in the bargain bins and you'll get the game cheap.

Or you could do a similar version with music using one of the under-£10 MP3s that are on the boards right now and some cheap/free download codes.


Or is he more of an old-fashioned 13 year old - construction kits and getting grubby type of thing? A Scouter would probably appreciate a Swiss Army knife and selection of outdoory things (maybe a little camping stove and some rations - try your local Army & Navy), with a camping weekend voucher.

Check out the Pigsback thread on the freebies board, especially pages 1 and 2, everyday. You will earn yourself quite a few vouchers between now and xmas. I joined in November and can just about order my third voucher, this is just from clicking, answering the quiz questions and signups. takes about 5 minutes a day.

Also, thanks to the boots grabbit thread I have got most of my presents already, many of them for little or no money:j

Hi All,

have already got tescos vouchers coming to me too - ok only about £17 but some of them can go aside for Xmas already i think unless i really need them and ive taken on the competition challenge to see if i win anything i can use them in some of the hampers too hopefully

Dont forget sammy kaye18 that your £17 of tesco vouchers is worth £68 at goldsmiths jewellers if you swap them for tesco deals !!!

Just come back from Tescos and they have a set of 3 different size seargrass baskets (really nice in my opinion) Self edge lable reads £3.98 however at checkout they scanned at £1.98 bought 4 sets so that my baskets sorted out for next year.

Nipped into Primark today after work to buy tights and ended up also buying some lovely long shaggy scarves that were reduced to £1 each. One in grey/purple/pink/brown and another in grey/green/purple. I also bought a set of 5 pairs of socks for £2. These are blue with the heel in colours that match the scarves perfectly and so will split the pack so there are 3 with one scarf and 2 with the other. Need to look out for some interesting hand/body lotions and lip salves to go along with these then I'll have 2 female relatives Christmas presents sorted with a kind of 'warm winter' gift bag of goodies.

Another trip to Primark yesterday to buy a pair of fleece PJ's reduced to £1 each for the winter warmer hampers and a towelling bath robe for a friend again for £1. Plan to buy a nice selection of smellies for pampering herself with to go with it.

Very rarely on this site. Someone slips through the net, and gets away with advertising their own site for a long time. This is despite the fact that advertising is strictly against the rules. Nice one Ian, you got away with this for a long time, but consider yourself reported now.
