So.

My Stepmum. What can I get her?

She doesn't like beauty, personal grooming, smellies. She doesn't wear jewellery. She's a pot of Nivea and a flannel kind of woman. She doesn't like clothes. She doesn't like handbags or shoes. She doesn't like magazines. She doesn't like cooking. She doesn't like gardening apart from a swift mow of the lawn, general tidy up. She reads but she reads allllll the time and is often re-reading books so I honestly wouldn't know where to start. She doesn't watch TV or films. She doesn't particularly like chocolates. She doesn't like music but does like Radio 4. Ugh. Any suggestions? I don't want to spend more than £15 but without sounding awful, she really is rather beige.

I have got a couple of photos of the DC's for her, any other ideas?

Photo calendar
(I saw something on here that you can get one for £8 incl P&P from Bonusprint using a voucher code on Money Saving Expert website)

I think I might start reading The Week!

Book token, honestly! I know some people feel like buying a voucher is a cop-out present but as a bookworm I would so much rather be given the chance to go into a bookshop and treat myself than receive a present that's nice but was bought mostly for the sake of having something to unwrap.

No idea for your present which is not already covered.
But just to let you know Nivea beat Crème de la Mer in a test Wink Give it a go, and flannels are great light exfoliators.
Save yourself some £££ Grin
