I'm bursting with ideas this year ... :haha::haha:
 
I love doing the kids but adult gifts just stump me, most people buy stuff if they want it so makes life difficult.

ugh i know and you feel like anything you buy will seem naff! My mam will usually give me an idea of something she wants so thats helpful :haha: then i'll get her a couple of surprise bits but she's so hard! She can't use bath stuff and is on slimming world so don't want to get her chocs. Probably will be a yankee candle and a bottle of something but i feel like it's so samey.
 
Great lists!

I struggle with adults too.

 
Fab lists. I too dislike buying for adults as I feel every year is similar!
 
I would love it if all the adults said let not do presents haha!!
 
I have 5 brothers.. we decided a few years ago to stop buying presents for each other and only buy for the kids and our parents. It is soooo much nicer not having to worry about all that and makes shopping so much less stressful.
 
Great lists. Some adults are such pains to buy for.
 
I only like buying for adults with Amazon Wish Lists, the rest are a nightmare!

:xmas11:

I have the same problem with my oldest, he wants NOTHING this year except a few strange plushies you can only buy from China for £20 a pop and make you panic for weeks in case they don't come, and Steam vouchers! He'd be gutted if he came down on Christmas morning and only had that compared to the eleventy million things his sister wants though!

:dohh:

Just a thought for your mum, I was on slimming world last year and my mum did me a mini chocolate hamper with fun size chocolate, curly wurlys milk ways etc and put little stickers on each with the syn value on it was such and I loved it. All the syn values can be found on Google, you could also include crisps like quavers and skips and pom bears and cans of diet drinks xxx
 
Great lists.

I too struggle with adult gifts. mil in particular

where did you get the starwars playdoh?
