If you're looking for gifts for teenage girls, I can recommend Pewterhooter silver jewellery on Amazon. They use Swarovski crystals and are really nice quality. I recently got a silver chain with a freshwater pearl hanging on it for £3.99. They come in nice boxes, so easy to wrap too!

Bit summery but Asda currently have Pimms for £8 for a 750ml bottle or £10 for a litre bottle - much cheaper than other places. Great for summer parties or as an end of term present for teachers!

My Pimms never lasts until Christmas so I've never really thought about it as a christmas drink. Might get an extra bottle to hide away until then though at these prices!

1122christy · 17/07/2015 12:01

Character.com have a summer sale on. Pretty cheap pjs, tshirts etc. good for wee add one to gifts. I've bought a few things from their over the years and I'd say quality is pretty good for the price.
