sorry for such a boring post, but I was after dissensians opinions on what to get a really good girl friend (who isn't my girlfriend, she's a friend, who's a girl) for christmas. Don't know if you guys know of anything a bit out of the ordinary, and preferably something I can get delivered to me tomorrow. I’m not into spending hundreds of pounds, but I’m not a cheapskate either. (thanks in advance)

I got a smart tip from my girlfriend this year which was to look at the stuff that people have got you for the last couple of Christmasses / birthdays because that's probably the kind of stuff that they'd like themselves...

Sorry Grizzle, I should of began with that. She likes professor green, likes clothes & shit, she’s a kind person and she likes to pamper herself a bit, so I think something from the body shop would be perfect, I have also found this tatty devine jewellery shop that I think she would enjoy. Hopefully this thread can inform others too.

I think Tatty Devine sounds like a good bet. That said, I'd recommend running any ideas past someone who knows her (and is preferably also female and roughly her age), rather than being too reliant on a bunch of old blokes on the internet.

notonthehighstreet.com (or something very similar, just google) is v good

those 'group buy' websites like groupon do very good deals too - you can get really good things/experiences for cheap

Thanks for the recommendations guys, I went with something from Swarovski in the end, and STN I took your advice and sent her sister a picture of what I was planning on getting and she said she would love it, thanks for that.

Thanks for all your suggestions guys, hope all of you have a good holiday and if you are celebrating it, a good Christmas!!

(also, baboon, notonthehighstreet, wicked site, thanks for sharing!)

no worries, it's a good site in amongst a sea of shite - i was looking for unusual gift ideas today, and it's shocking some of the tat that is being sold.
