Help needed!!!! Small present ideas for friend’s birthday around £10

9 replies

Whatisthepointinthis · 11/02/2022 16:52

I am notoriously bad and unimaginative with present buying.

Usually stick to a bottle of Prosecco or similar but have done this past few years.

Am working all weekend and very limited “classy shops” nearby. Mainly supermarkets and pound shops.

Any ideas for birthday present, not too dear, not too cheap looking, not alcohol or chocs?

Friend is 53 and fairly stylish, so I always panic about buying things that involve my specific taste and worry that it’s a bit naff!

Take her out for a drink? (I know this is more than £10!)
A book.
A scarf.
Nice box of biscuits.
A plant.
Some shower stuff.
Right now I'd love a hot water bottle, some feminax and hot chocolate, all doable for £10?!

The 30ml occitane hand creams are £8 each. The ones that contain Shea are the best.

Flowers? Daffodils are the cheapest. Tulips and hyacinths also in season and not expensive.

I'd love a book or a magazine and box chocolates

My local florist does a small plant in a teacup with saucer. Either buy or make your own

10 bunches of daffodils for instant joy all around the house.

I'm a sucker for a nice candle. Or wax burner. Can get them cheap.

I'd love a book and a nice chocolate bar.
