    Can I ask you lovely ladies for some advice. I need to buy 2 presents for 2 managers who made me go for the promotion. I don't know what to buy though. Chocolates are a bit meh so I want to get something else. 1 is 57 and very glamorous and 1 is 49 and even more glamorous. Would buying them perfumes be a bit OTT? Also, what perfume would I get? If I was to get them a skincare / make up gift set, what brand should I be looking at? Could someone kindly advise.

    There is lots of nice silver jewellery on Amazon (well, silver plated), cheap too:) I bought some recently as gifts for a mum and daughter - went down well with both, so probably classy enough to suit most tastes, eg

    I haven't joined in with the cheese this time around, mainly because I picked up 10 250g packs of wensleydale in Lidl a few weeks ago at 69p a pop, that was good then :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
