I ordered a present for my sister via the internet but although posted a couple of weeks ago, it hasn't turned up yet. All I can think of is to buy something else, quick and post it off asap.
Any suggestions please for lady in her late 60's?
Not too heavy as I'll have to send it first class. She loves to have a wrapped gift so doesn't enjoy getting gift tokens.

How about some nice writing paper and envelopes with a book of stamps as well. Some talcum powder, perfumed draw liners,a good book if she's into reading, anice diary or address book, thats all I can think of at the moment, I'm 65 and I love perfume but it's probably not a good idea to send thru the post.Best of luck and have a very Happy Christmas.

if your luck is like mine you will receive the order a day after you send the other gift. Had my " little girl " come early for a visit yesterday and gave her what I had although there was a " special book " She was to get for Christmas -- will send it to her but with Christmas just a few days away question if it will arrive in time. the book arrived today.

Hi Try the book called 'Cranford'. Your sister will like that, as its just been on TV (very popular), or something really light, what about a headscarf.
Best of Luck

How about printing out a picture of what you bought her and wrapping that up? Of course it isn't the same as the actual gift but if you know it's coming then it will be ok. Then it's kind of like having something now and later.

Go to Marks and Spencers (or similar) and get a nice silk/cashmere/other beautiful ladies scarf set

I don't understand why you can't track your package? I would call the company and raise holy begeebers with them... they will more than likely send out another one rushing the postage ASAP!
JUST TRY IT!!!

How about a nice robe or set of pajamas or gown?
Hope you are tracking that package, my medication was stolen over a month ago and I cant get it back.
