christmas shopping

[mollykins]

I have a feeling it's going to be one of those threads, but i'm going christmas shopping soon.

What should I buy my dad for christmas?

It needs to be something that's between 5 and £10 but it can't be any of the following which rules out nearly anything possible;

~chocolate (he's too fussy and even if he doesn't like them he just shoves some in his mouth then screws his face up and leaves the rest)
~a mug (he has to have china cups, which I've never found with any of those slogans on)
~clothes (including slippers and accesories such as jewelry) (he's so fussy, and he just got a new pair of slippers and he's allergic to lots of metals and wouldn't wear jewelry anyway)
~alcohol (he has tonnes in the cupboard and even if I got someone to buy it for me, my budget doesn't extend to buy the kinds of things he likes)
~CDs or DVDs (he never watches or listens to them.)

£10 towards his boat fund?

Molly, why do you come and ask questions on here? I have never actually seen you accept any answer you have ever been given.

[berniecuddles]

Doc you watching! we are up to number 50 already and she is still saying NO to every suggestion given (as usual) !!!! must have had a boring weekend, ROLL ON 100 ANSWERS AGAIN!!!

look at the other stuff then...

[mollykins]

I've asked hundreds of questions and have recieved useful answers on almost all of them, I can't help it if many people make silly sugestions.

[supersuezy24]

How about just giving him the money??

[milly143]

Silly answers? There are loads of good answers on this thread.

If you can't work out what your Dad would like then how is anyone on here supposed to know.

[ummmm]

She'll have to take it out of her account Red...

Molly give the ungrateful sod a box of teabags and tell him to make his own tea next year, then you can make that your new years resolution- not making him tea.
Talk about killing two birds with the one stone

I have to use any money i've saved up from doing jobs round my nans or the lady next door, but I suually end up using birthday/christmas money for their gifts.

£5's worth of lottery ticket's???

[redcrx]

well id stick to low budget and not dip into your birthday money.

or strike a deal, you wont get them anything and they dont get you anything?

That's what we#re doing, redcrx, seems to be quite a trend this year.
