I am...... And I'm probably not the only one!
I want to buy my Mummy & Sister some perfume for christmas, does anyone know any cheaper places to get perfume from other than high street shops?

Boots are doing special offers by two get the third free, and if you have Boots loyalty card you get points too. Cheap perfume can smell nasty, if you know their favourite perfume, why not go for a cheaper option of getting them a soap or bubble bath in their favourite brand, this is a more traditional Christmas pressie.
Its about time, we all stopped spending loads of money at Christmas and spent time having a great meal and being together.
Your Mum would probably appreciate it you volunteered to help set the table for Christmas dinner, help with the washing up or some other small task that would help get her out of the kitchen after Christmas dinner is over.
I think the person who suggest "vouchers" for doing similar tasks is also a good idea too.
We have set a £20 limit on gifts this year, but I do try and find small silly pressies for a small surprise gift to hand out after dinner. usually around the £1 price range, such as a nice smelly candle, pen, fridge magnet etc.
please be careful with some of the answers as you sound quiet young, if you get nasty answers please alert yahoo straight away or you Mum.

Next do some lovely perfumes that smell gorgeous but are pretty cheap as well. They have a website if you don't want to go in to town, also try Boots and Superdrug they have very competitive prices and places like the Perfume Shop have cheaper perfumes as well. They all have websites as far as I know so you don't have to go in to the high street

Try Perfume Direct, they are usually cheaper than most places, I hope this helps! If you are worried about having money for christmas maybe get a part time job or ask your mum about doing extra jobs/chores around the house for money.

Try buying something on the Internet instead. Many online fragrance companies will guarantee the lowest price on name brand perfumes and colognes since they don’t have the overhead of the brick and mortar stores.
Try http://www.buddyandoscars.com/accessories_apparel.htm and compare the prices from the different merchants in the ‘Fragrances & Cosmetics’ category. Hope this helps you get them something nice at a price you can afford.

If you are in the UK then get to semi-chem they have fantastic prices on popular male and female fragrances ! I got Paris Hilton for my daughter for £10 and Morgan de Toi for my brother for £7 .. how good is that !

No, we attempt to no longer pass overboard with each little thing, and this year for the 1st time, the full kinfolk has desperate in basic terms to purchase grants for the youngsters. so as which will save a sturdy style of money. the better area of Christmas is being with the kinfolk, you do no longer choose grants to have fun with that.

being a mother myself - I would prefer that if my child was struggling financially ; that he/she gave me some ""vouchers"" they ahd made for things like - meals cooked ; laundry done; windows washed ; car washed etc
if you ahve a nice photo of you & your sister - then maybe you could be creative & make a frame for it & give her that
