What do you want for £50?

I need ideas for myself! Two or three £50 items, the buyers won't club together or give cash or vouchers which makes it awkward.

Some really nice pots for my houseplants

I would ask for a gluggle jug!
Or a bottle of the perfume I wear.
Something lovely from Courthouse Interiors.
Booze!

Two of my recent purchases that have I've been really pleased with:

  1. I recently bought the lovely "Urban Decay Stoned Vibes eyeshadow palette" @ £46. (available on Asos)
Not something I would usually splash the cash on but its good quality and colours I will make daily use of.
  1. Sturdy By Design gym wear. Fabulous colourful prints. I recently bought the leggings and a bra top, that comes in around the £50 mark, maybe a little over. Check out their website if you like gym wear that's bit different and built for the curvier body.

Thanks for all the ideas, I'd actually love a gluggle jug too!
Also interested in the leggings but I probably should have mentioned this is for my 40th birthday rather than Christmas so I think people are wanting to get a keepsake.

Ah, that's fair enough then. Me personally, I would be looking out for vintage sellers. There are some wonderful sellers on Etsy who sell vintage/antique/quirky goods. I've got my eye on a beautiful Amber coloured water jug, that I would use as a flower vase. The colour is stunning. Its only around £20 but I cant justify it (yet!). Other things I like are vintage tea sets, trinket boxes etc.

What about a nice jewellery box?
A nice print for your wall?

Something like this that you wouldn’t normally buy yourself :

If someone offered me £50 for gifts right now, I'd get:
www.theirnibs.com/collections/aw20-ladies-pyjamas/products/ladies-traditional-cotton-pyjama-set-lion-moon-print

And this:
www.thebodyshop.com/en-gb/body/body-butters/shea-nourishing-body-butter/p/p000019

With the remaining £4 I'd like a couple of bars of Aldi or Lidl chocolate.
