Got to get my sister a small birthady present - cheapish £5-£15. Has anyone got any good ideas? She is so hard to buy for. Doesn't like make up, doesn't do flowers. I'm stumped...

My mum is like this - she can't smell or taste anything, which rules out so many things. How about something nostalgic that would remind her of when you were children? 2 presents I received this year that I loved were a Jackie compilation annual (depends how old she is) but that was fantastically nostalgic. And also a 1970s scrapbook - just full of pictures of choc bars, household items etc- spent hours looking at it. Think they do 60s, 80s etc too

does she like music at all? if so the putumayo world music cds are really fab and unusual, if you google putumayo you can go on the website and then listen to some. if you then buy thru caiman via amazon website they are about £8. you cd get 'music from the coffee lands' and wrap it with a mug or some nice coffee?
or how about a vase and some flowers?have d ones in woolies/ tesco?
or box with luxury green and blacks cocoa/ hot choc, some G & B choc and a mug?
