SIL can afford anything she likes & in the past when anyone has bought her presents with thought they get thrown in a corner unused sat in the box

So I have no idea what to buy her, spending £10-£15, has skin allergies so no smellies... Help!

Don't buy her anything & smile at her directly when you hand over an Oxfam goat certificate.....

For those who have everything I buy consumables.

That way there is a slight chance that the present will actually get used by someone -even if that means it is put on a plate for visitors.

So booze of some kind, Chocs-poshest for price range,biscuits/cookies etc -either home made or deli bought -that sort of thing.

In a very tight pinch I get flowers or a plant if they are gardeners.

Really nice Panattone in a box? (TK's have some lovely ones for about £10 - £12)

She gets me nice presents, but just feel anytime we buy anything with thought it's not appreciated, might buy a mic bottle of wine and chocolates, sounds good idea!

For people like that I usually get something from a shop I know they like with a gift receipt.
