I need a gift for my stepmother who is very difficult to buy for as she has everything already. I need something a bit unusual. Any ideas greatly received ! I want to spend about £50.00.

How about a special day out or some sort of gift experience?

I know the feeling. My wife is very difficult to buy for. I would recommend something that pertains to a hobby or collection. Most people have a hobby or collect something, so that is the direction I would go. If She doesn't have a hobby or collection, perhaps a coffee mug filled with candy, or some other sort of gift basket. Gift baskets with bath salts, fancy soaps, etc. in them is always a good gift. Even people who don't seem to be into that type of thing enjoy it. My wife didn't like taking baths, she was a shower girl all the way until I bought her some fancy bath salts and things. Now she loves to spend a Sunday afternoon in the tub for relaxation.

I am not sure what would cost 50 pounds, but can you make her something? Can you get a scrapbook and put together some pictures of her with you and your dad. It might let her know how important you are to her. If you can knit, crochet or cross stitch, you could make something for her also. Sometimes people save the gifts that are hand made and treasure them more than ones we spend money on. Look at your talents and figure out what you can give her that way.

Buy her a gift certificate to her favorite restaurant, department store, or beauty salon. I have found that some people really prefer Gift certs. over gifts, since they are the ones that get to decide what they buy. Sometimes there are things that they may need or want that others don't know about. Ask your dad for some advice, he may know of something that she would enjoy. Good Luck!

sure, now and back he offered me issues. We now share salaries and all. We try this. We tally up the month-to-month very own loan, utilities, etc. and we each pay a million/2. The groceries are a sprint distinctive. We circulate to the keep jointly or make a catalogue jointly and then split it 50/50. The stuff for the home is the comparable way.

A big and very beautifully decorated bouquet of roses and a perfumed candle. It's simple and very nice gift that all people like to receive. More over as they afford to buy anything they need, they only want simple gifts.

you could buy her a star in the sky...i bought a friend of mine one when she lost her baby...i went on the internet and bought it with a credit card..they send you out a map and your star is circled.. you can also name the star and have a little poem on the cert...it is a beautiful gift and my friend loved hers...its pretty cheap bout €50 which would be bout £30 i think. Hope this helps you a bit
