What can I put in this purse I have bought a friend as a present?

[bytheMoonlight]

We normally only spend between £5-£10 on each other and I've spen that on the purse.

But it's bad luck to give an empty purse so what can I put in it that won't cost a lot?

a penny

pound coin

has to be a coin I think, or she's doomed

Photo of you both? or her family?
One of those pound coin things that go in a shopping trolley.
Costa coffee voucher

a few chocolates?

Oops - cross posted. Coin(s) then!
See if you can find one from the year of her birth/childrens birth so its special!

Here in Scotland a purse has to be hansled(sp?) - just means putting a few coins in it.

Traditionally it's a penny.

I would put one of each coin in, either up to 50p or £2 depending on which you would prefer

Chocolate coins

Lottery ticket

a penny is tradition - she wouldn't expect more than that.
but I like the idea of a photo too. (too as in as well as a penny)

Love all of the suggestions!

Chocolate coins or special date coins - Fab idea!! Or a Christmas scratch card? Or a lottery ticket, do they do a draw Christmas day?

And I love the Costa coffee voucher idea as well. Can you get Starbucks ones?

Starbucks have chocolate coins for 50p, quite big too.

Save the Maccy D coffee stickers on the cup and pop a full card in.

I think a pound would be fine , thats what I usually put in a new purse , or if shes a really good friend card shops do nice little cards with messages on them , bank card size maybe you could get her something like that ,
