What are you buying for your fellow mum-friends?

[berri]

I just want a little gesture so nothing expensive or large to carry! I suppose 10 quid absolute maximum!

For instance I got one of them a little mug with a hot choc set inside, but I need a few different ideas and am stuck.

Any thoughts?

Cashmere scarves from Brora

this one

Slightly out of my £10 maximum budget mentioned in the OP, but thanks for the suggestion.

Plus it's minging.

Nuclear, although berrl's comment made me laugh, I would just like to say I don't think it's minging; much the contrary for me.

But then I thought I was probably on a taste divergence with the OP when I noticed on re-reading the mug & hot chocolate idea.

I make Christmas biscuits and a few chosen get a bag with a selection, very flexible, you can adjust the size of the bag, or give a tin for the office / the staff room (my solution for zillions of teachers and classroom assistants that DD can't always name reliably). Make up some extra bags and not given away get scoffed eaten by us later... A cookie press and also 'drop' type cookie recipes are your friend.

Do you have cath kidston over there? They do some lovely gifts for under a tenner...online order maybe?

I got given for my birthday, and have since been and bought for 2 friends, gorgeous small, fab coloured leather purses from TKMaxx. Ideal size to fit in an evening bag (when you don't want to take your usual bulging with crap purse out) or good as a lippy, tampon, paracetamol holder.
They were £9.99, and came boxed.
