Maybe you could fo a joint night in hamper for them or a favourite things then you can just get some token presents and it would look good altogether still.
maybe you could do a home hamper and include luxury items she wouldnt buy for the home posh candles etc and stuff for her to relax after te moving period? X

Anyone looking for interesting teas, coffees, hot chocolates etc should check their local TK Maxx, they usually have some nice things for decent prices. They also do oils and vinegars. I have picked up some great cheap bits for cooking themed hampers.

I do my brother a "games hamper" every year and he loves it. I think he'd be gutted if I changed it.

I buy him a voucher for Game and then I put tins of his favourite pop, fave crisps, popcorn and general snacks for him to munch on while he is gaming. Always very well received.
