Moms night off box...

Hello


It's one of my best mates birthdays soon. She's got a small baby and so I thought I'd make her a moms night off/in box.


She's currently at Slimming World so I don't want to mess that up by getting her loads of chocolate and things, but I might get her some of the Slimming World treats.


I make a lot of my own bath things so will include body scrub, body butter and a bath bomb.


I might also include her favourite magazine.


Any other ideas would be very much appreciated.


Many thanks


Anna

    What a lovely idea,

    Maybe a candle for whilst she is soaking in the bath. A face mask/eye mask/hair mask. Pound shops do foot and hand masks too. A nail varnish for her to paint her nails. Slimming world friendly treats are a great idea and I am sure would be greatly appreciated. If you are ensure there are lots of slimming world groups on faceb**k you can post in and ask. Could you get /make her a cd with her favourite songs to listen too whilst she is pampering herself. Good Luck, what a thoughtful friend xx

    I immediately thought of similar to the previous post! - candles, bath treats!

    Does she have a favourite shop or like something like the cinema? Maybe something a small voucher for Waterstones / record store or wherever. In the past I've given cinema goodie bags - a voucher for 2 adult tickets (you could use Mr T Clubcard vouchers if wanting to keep costs down) and provide the drinks and sweeties ( from the shops of course!!)

    Closer to home, there's an ongoing SW support thread on this forum here
    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5839606/slimming-towards-summer-slimming-world-support-thread-2018


    If the OP knows someone who goes to the group. then 'hifi' bars might be appreciated - otherwise, Alpen Light ceral bars or Benefit bars from ALDI.



    Fresh fruit would always be on plan
