I'm SO stuck.
I've just wrapped the huge plastic, pretending to be large glass jar, various mint sweets and thought to myself 'what an utterly shite present'! I can't give it to them, they deserve better.
DD has SN's so they are her 1-2-1 teachers. Both young, one probably 19, the other not much older. One is Muslim so wine not a great idea and anyway the younger of the 2 would probably hate wine at 19 yrs.
Please help. Budget £10 or so each really.
TIA x

When I was 18 my 19 yr old boyfriend liked both red and white wine.

I think they'd probably enjoy the sweets having watched the young TAs in our school. How about Amazon vouchers?

Amazon or iTunes voucher...although I think sweets are normally a hit with young blokes.

Alicelost, I'm sure some 18 and 19 yr old do like wine. I didn't though. It might sound odd but he soooooooo doesn't look like a wine drinker. Better to not risk it. And I didn't think that Muslims drank alcohol so would still have to get a different gift for the other young male teacher anyway.
Hellhasnofury, vouchers are a good idea. How does it work with amazon vouchers? Do they post out a gift card to you? I have to give them the gifts on Wednesday. Maybe a WH Smith voucher in that case (talking to self here!!) Nice of you to say you think they might like mints. They suddenly seemed rubbish and I hate giving gifts I don't feel 100% about.

I would get none muslim teacher a 4 pack of bottled beer and the other box of sweets / chocs / mints etc

If you have a decent printer, you can print the Amazon vouchers as soon as you buy them online.

I think that a ten pound voucher and some sweets is a very lovely gift.
