No I haven't seen them, will go have a look now
Cookies in jars would make an excellent family present you know, was thinking of baking some cookies but the jar idea is much cuter. Actually that link just reminded me of something I've pinned on pinterest, not sure where you would get the jars from or how much they would be, but I absolutely LOVE it!

I've got jars similar to this from asda - pack of 4 with silver screw on lids £2 - great for lil pressies.

Thanks very much for the heads up Kingfisher I'll have a look in wilkinsons today.
Zepsgal I'll keep an eye out but my superdrug never has any of the good bargains They probably think I'm a shoplifter aswell now, I go in there skulk around for 5 minutes looking for the bargain bin then walk back out again!

I'm struggling with my friends EXTREMELY tomboyish daughter, I've no idea what to get her. Last year I bought her a beautiful watch and bracelet gift set which came in a pink box - and she cried. lol. She detests anything to do with girls or girl things but her mum would go nuts if I bought her something exclusively for boys. She has loads of books and she doesn't like arts and crafts! Argh!
I'm stuck.

my3girls

can i join here too? trying to get as many gifts as cheap as poss!

Those snowmen are ace i'll have to ask my friend to collect her baby food pots for me lol.

mrsmagpie what about a voucher to the cinema, or one of those movie hampers you could stick a comedy film or something in thats unisex? Just a thought,
