I have a few presents I'm really struggling with and would appreciate ideas!

Couple - in their 30s, live in London. Happy to buy a present separately or together. Max budget £40 joint max. Don't know them that well - they're "new" close family.

Woman a - mid 30s, likes a drink. Lives outside London. Budget £15-£20.

Girl - age 17. Not massively into make up. Budget £20.

Any ideas please? I hate Christmas present choosing Sad Are vouchers a cop out?

I love Emma Bridgewater mugs and feel like they could be suitable for all your people! A pair of mugs plus a nice bag of coffee for the couple. A mug and some chocs for the single woman and same for the teen or a EB chillys bottle.

Girl - coffee shop voucher
Benefit gift set
PJs and fluffy socks
Zara perfume
Set of cacti in pretty pots
Book token

Couple:
Bottle of wine and posh chocs
Tbh I don't understand why you're buying for them if you hardly know them

Woman: box set of Aveda Hand Relief minis
Philip Kingsley Elasticizer
This Works sleep spray
Neom candle
Wine and posh chocs

I'm buying for the couple and the single because they are very close family but only through recent marriage if that makes sense.

The 17 year old girl is my cousin but lives miles away so I don't have much visibility into her daily life other than what I see through Instagram.

I like the EB mugs and nice coffee idea for the couple, thank you.

Superdrug have a huge revolution make up set reduced from £60 to £20, perfect for the 17 year old, also boots have some good Black Friday deals.

Girl - chilli water bottle. Phone power pack. Chunky knit woolly hat.

Single woman (me😂) no handcrem. Everyone buys me hand cream and scented candles. No. More. Again a chilli water bottle or power pack for phone. Or a brightly coloured umbrella. Echo dot.

Couple. a really fancy golf umbrella. Bottle of champagne.

For the couple and the single woman, what about a box from the craft gin club? Full size bottle of gin plus mixers and snacks. It’s £40 but you can get £20 off with a referral code.

My referral for the craft gin club: prz.io/XBjOLzfK

Or alternatively use this code if the link isn’t working: LL-WP14TCRI

(I get £20 off too).

Princess bear are they not subscriptions though, monthly or quarterly.

Would you have to join, then cancel after the first box?
