Christmas Presents

I have to buy for about 20 people at about £10 each (I am that broke) ranging from a 9 year old boy, my boyfriend, about 5 girlfriends, grandparents and parent figures.

I'm covered on my parents and their respective partners, I just donate to charity for them...although this year I'm buying them a Goat each. http://www.iwantoneofthose.com/gift-of-a-goat-1024/index.html

But I really need cheap good ideas for the rest.

What are you buying people?

Oh and it has to be orderable via the internet... I don't go into shops.

Butt plugs.

Okay, tick.

By the way, who on my list would want that?

Your brother.

He's 9!!!!!!!!!!!

I know.

He could...show it off in the playground...?

Hawkins Bazaar are brilliant for bizzare gifts. May I suggest making up stockings? When I am strapped for moola, stockings are amazingly easy and cheap. Hawkins again do some great fillers ranging from 50p to £5. All you need are a few sweets and some tacky Christmas stuff! If you don't feel that creative, many sites on the net offer up pre-stuffed stocking which are usually a bargin. You can get empty stockings for as little as a £1 on eBay or in the shops. Everyone loves stockings.

That might actually be a good idea for my girlfriends.

£200 on presents?

I'd convert to Judaism, Scientology or secular humanism.

Basically anything that doesn't celebrate Xmas.

The Grinch was a quitter.

I love Hawkins Bazaar!

*gulp*

Yes, Hawkins Bazaar are great.

for odd presents which seem more impressive than they actually are, look for signed books/CDs/DVDs on eBay, such as this.

Is the only played once meant to be so bitterly ironic?

If I'm one of the 20 then I'll be happy with a Muffin basket.

Oh dear!! I think I'm going to waste so much money on that Hawkins Bazaar!!!
