Properly recyclable wrapping paper?

I hear such mixed things about recyclable wrapping paper. Any good, reasonably priced suggestions?
If it has no glitter on it is that enough? What's the story about the scrunching thing? If you scrunch it up and it keeps its shape it's not recyclable?
Sports Direct had massive rolls of shiny looking paper today with "recyclable" on the label but I wasn't sure I believed them, it looked too smooth and shiny.

Tissue paper? I know it's not recyclable because the fibres are too short or something, but it must still be less wasteful than shiny glittery paper? I sort of assume it just dissolves in landfill.

Tin foil

I was just coming on to say the same thing! Ever since that Gavin & Stacey episode my husband has wrapped my present in tin foil. I then use the foil for the turkey.
