What home bargains might also be good for little bits cheaply. Look for little etc stationary bits.

Trying to think what if like if someone was buying me 21 pressies. I'm in the middle of a declutter so wouldn't want to give (or receive) any joke but collect dust type presents. I'd like niceish knickers (m&s maybe), primark cute socks, mini bottles of wine or spirits, chocolate, nail varnish, I bought my sons godmother (that we call fairy)
this
For Christmas last year and she loved it and keeps it on her bedside table

Fueledwithfairydustandgin · 07/10/2016 07:13

For any space fans this book looks good

Leeloo2 · 07/10/2016 07:17

For the 21 little presents... Go round beauty counters and say you'd like to get some for your daughter for Xmas, but she has v v sensitive skin. Which products would they recommend for her? And do they have samples so you can check she won't react to them.

Lancome (v generous), clarins, Elizabeth arden etc will do. (Clinique usually don't as say just bring back if doesn't suit you). If you have a couple of Boots/department stores you could v quickly get 21 presents that'd be 5ml or sachet sized...

I did this for my mum 1 year as a poor student and ended up with quite a big hoard, then got her a full sized cleanser and toner to go with as that got you more mini sizes.

Hi Girls thanks for the ideas I would like to spend about 100 in total as she is very good to my son, so roughly a fiver a present, so if I got a few cheaper I could get a couple of nice ones, I will try dealz as I think someone mentiioned its the same as poundland as I am in Ireland, the m & s advent is a great idea but she works in a pharmacy at weekends so gets things like samples of makeup perfume etc free, will get some stationery things as she is in college traing to be a teacher, I have also done a clear out and get what your saying re silly things that are just clutter, some nice knicers and socks etc are a goiod idea as she will use them, anymore ideas I would appreciate them, as I have two young boys I find it hard to think what 21 year old girls would really like.

Not a Christmas bargain search but hoping someone might be able to help - looking for girls' dark grey leg warmers - must be plain and must be dark grey as they are for school. Have found loads of women's one on Amazon but DD is 9 so I'm guessing those ones aren't going to work!

Also looking for bargains on UGGs - Bailey button or mini Bailey bow in chestnut preferably. Anyone know of anywhere which has offers on?

RJnomore1 · 07/10/2016 08:39

I did something like that for my god daughters 16th but as her name starts with n I got 16 things that start with n.

Ranging from a necklace from Swarovski to a jar of Nutella and a packet of nic nacs.

Give me a letter and I'll try a list for you?

GirlWithTheYellowHat · 07/10/2016 08:43
