What would you buy your sil?

[Radley]

Has anyone got any ideas what i can buy my sister in law for chrismtas.

I started the christmas shopping yesterday.

She is very very awkward to buy for, and most often than not, I don't get a thank you, but, if I don't sort something out dh will not be happy.

She likes reading, doesn't drink or smoke, likes cross stitch and watching dvds.

I don't want to spend much on her as she is unappreciative, i would rather spend more money on people who appreciate things.

blimey christmas shopping already.

Get her a life. No just get her a chicken for the third world or whatever. That is my general present solution to peripheral family members.

a dvd?

What would I buy my SIL, a bullet but only if she promised to use it correctly.

a book token or voucher for a bookshop near her.

The Oxfam idea is an excellent one. Its what I'm buying for my brother this year (although I love him to bits, unlike you with your SIL!). You get a great card which is sent to the recipient with a message saying what you have bought and why it will help.

I'd go for the book token as well.

How about this so she can keep track of books she'd like to read?

a dvd voucher and cross stich magazine!

what would i get my SIL for christmas... a hitman cause shes a bitch!

How about a subscription to a sewing mag?

I'd buy my SIL a personality and a sense of humour. I think you should buy your SIL..a subscription to a cross stitch magazine.

I'm very impressed - I have 3 SILs - DH buys one of them the present (his sister) and fortunately the other two married into the right family and we just buy them wine.

I like the book journal idea - it's a bit different

SOD ALL ! ha ha lol

I'd buy mine a huge gobstopper,it serves 2 purposes

1. when big it will stop her talking in her patronising fake scottish accent

2.when small it will hopefully go down the wrong way and bloomin choke her {grin]

a backbone, personality and integrity.
