I was in a card shop this morning and found pretty pink 'Love' mugs at half-price so paid £1.99 each and Thorntons Santa on a stick for 50p each now all I need is the Hot Choccie drink & marshmallows and the girls Christmas mugs will be ready to go (plus the money of course)...

A lot of florists will sell you cellophane if you ask, but depending on how much you want, eBay can actually be cheaper.

Speaking from experience cash/vouchers are definately preferable to a token gift that they don't appreciate. I remember getting dodgy presents from my gran/aunt and if anything it is just a waste of money for them - at least with money they can get exactly what they want and combine it with other monetary gifts to get something special.0
