Does it have to be a book? I'm sure I read some guide on here about how to search for things that cost eg 5p to make your order up (or i remember someone just adding a single chocolate bar!)5

Here!

I searched for something for 1p and the cheapest that came up was 11p I think (might not work if it's not all dispatched by the same people but worth checking!)5 -
Other options, are there other sellers than Amazon - look at those as usually cheaper and include postage, run it and see if you get an offer for free prime (I just did for my niece's birthday present at £4) or ask a friend with prime (done that when my dad needed stuff for his contact lens)5

Pleased to hear that you had a lovely birthday. The afternoon tea sounded delicious.
Being the technophobe I am……no idea about the book on Amazon. Thankfully you have more technical savvy friends on here than me 😂😂😂👍January spends - £587.584 -
Thanks.
I think it needs to be books.
