christmas hampers 2015

I always love the ideas on this thread, although we use a basket, at church we choose one and take it away and then fill it to be sold at the Christmas fair. I am usually fine with an idea for girls as I base it on what mine like but I have noticed in the last few years another empty basket seems to appear on my table .... Mum cons me that I do mine much better than her! She does give me money for filling it.
This year I am using some freebie bits from the tesco wine fair and doing a wine themed one for thinking of doing a minion based one as the second one.Don’t put it down - put it away!

We are only doing token gifts this year; for my parents I am going to do a 'little box of luxeries' and get them bits they don't buy often:
marmite (waiting for Christmas design jars)
fancy jam/marmalade
nice crackers/biscuits for cheese
wine for mum (and a new glass personalised if I can)
whisky for dad (small gift set)
fancy crisps and nibbles
mini hot water bottles
new dvd
for my brother; I'm going to ask what he likes most and do something similar I think************************************

Thank you.
I made a football hamper for OH a few years ago. Trying to find the post and picture for you.
If the person supports a "top 4" club such as Chelsea or Arsenal then Sports Direct often have badges and other small gifts for a reasonable price.
If the person supports a football league club like me(!), I would try and get 2 free gickets for a match on the current mccoys football giveaway. I cannot post links as I have had to re-register as a new user as my old account wasn't activited or something.
