ARGH Parents in law Christmas present hell! What the eff do I get them?

[MamaG]

GRRR

pref from boots site (3 for 2!!!)

ROFL at "food parcel"

Why don't you just go to Aldi and buy some of their italian type range and stick it in a poundstretcher wicker basket.

calandar with photos of your dcs in

put together wine bits like stoppers, cooler thing you keep in fridge and a wine book with a bottle or two

but the oxfam toilet wins!

Do I?????
Am morphing into horrendous MC type.
Ok then.....worrabout an Argos voucher??

make / buy them a xmas cake? let the DC loose on decorating it???
then it is from the little darlings rather than you

I think the champagne MMJ linked to is good too

ps gigglewitch's idea is also very good - aren't you a cake-baker anyway MamaG?

They are not your parents. So let your DH deal with it. Well that's what I do

Let DH sort it out. They are his parents.

lol at argos voucher!

Yes, MMJ thats great, but I didn't want to spend that much on the ungrateful fuckers old dears.

Yes, I am a Queen Cake Baker, thats not a bad idea

PS = sorry, had to dash off last night as DS woke up screaming

15- 20 max [tight]

I'd much rather spend my hard earned money on the DC to be honest

Yes, def. I think something they can eat/drink that isn't a food parcel(!) would be great for them

Another problem is that I live in the sticks. No sainsburys. Only Morrisons & Asda!

I AM going to a city tomorrow thought (oooh get me) with:-

M&S
BHS
Next
Boots
Woolies
Argos (lolol)
etc

[hopeful]

don't know if it helps but my sucky-uppy gift to the FIL this year will be one of these

or yes give them something really cheap and nasty which they will enjoy complaining about to their poncey friends for months to come. (I'm assuming they have poncey friends)

thanks bees

LMAO

OMG I can't breathe!!! THats a mental image I soooo don't need

SIL once bought MIL some nice smellies, including Barefoot Doctor (ist hat right?) orgasmic foot lotion - mIL "oh its organic"

me and SIL shook with silent hysteria

OK OK Hoiw about this:-

The DC have had their first school photo done together. I could put one in a nice frame (they have a lot of framed family photos on their drinks cabinet) and give with a bottle of something alcoholic/chocs/home made cake (delete as applicable)

maybe I'll save that for their birthdays

A nice expensive bottle of wine?

YEs, I thinkj so huyla. With nice pic of dc in a nice frame
