You can get plain archive boxes, but they are often sold in packs.

Looking for a cheap way to box up the hamper. Thinking of a plain box with lid. Want to wrap up both the box and lid & seal with ribbon.

Just don't know where to get an MSE box from.

Supermarkets? Neighbours getting parcels delivered? Schools? Corner shops? Doesn't need to be a plain box if you're wrapping it anyway. I picked up one in Aldi today. Will cover it with wrapping paper then put cellophane over to 'hamper it up'!

Plain archive lidded boxes IKEA 80p each good decent size. Going to get one for D's craft box

I'm doing a donkey themed hamper, in need of some small things to go in it, got an adopt a donkey, a donkey hot water bottle cover, and a dvd, but not sure what else to put in, did see some donkey's milk soap but the p & p was too expensive.

Going to make some donkey shaped gingerbread too

Is there anything in this Donkey sanctuary gift shop? The postage is included in prices for UK so you can just buy one or two little things.

You could look for cheap teddy of the donkey from shrek (possibly the most famous donkey?!)
A book about donkeys?
You don't say if its for adults or kids but a book about donkeys for kids should be easy to track down. For adults there is a book called 'who killed Marilyn Monroe' which is a private detective/chick lit book (Marilyn is a donkey from a string on the beach and donkeys feature heavily in the book) if you'd like the author send me a pm and I'll find her for you.
Should be cheap, mine was 50p a few years ago.

Don't forget malteser reindeers.
You could get an archive box, wrap it in red paper, pad it out with tissue paper or shred and then print out the maltesers logo and stick it on the top and then wrap that in normal Christmas paper
