    The soon to be FAMOUS!... Firebox challenge

    So my sisters and I (grammar init) decided to do a secret santa for Christmas. We have said we will limit it to £30, however the sister I have drawn out of the hat has helped me a fair bit this year, so willing to go over to a whole FORTY ENGLISH POUNDS ooo00000oooooOOOoooo (maybe a few pence more too)

    Now, being a man, I usually get crap stuff for my sisters, bodyshop specials and that Soap & Glory stuff. This year however, I will not be doing that! I will be getting as much random crap as I can from firebox for £40 as possible.

    As you men gods amongst men have no doubt already completed your Christmas shopping I thought I would turn to you guys for help. I have nothing to offer as a trade for your hard work, apart from a medal I will draw myself on MS Paint (feel free to display as your avatar forever )

    Things you might find useful, she works long hours as a fire safety officer, she has a son who is 18 months old, she has an iPhone, she likes to keep fit, She has a 1 litre turbo focus in white(not sure if relevant), she likes random crap, she has no shame and will always join in with any ridiculous idea if it may contain lols or rofl's (dressing as a tiger for a children's fancy dress etc)

    Would anyone care to help?

    Silly:

    Girlier options:

    http://www.firebox.com/product/4699/...ourmet-Popcorn
    http://www.firebox.com/product/4539/Hot-Boots

    Thoughtful (could include photos of her son etc, you could get photos from facebook etc
    http://www.firebox.com/product/5156/Instagram-Poster

    I'm not sure how to narrow further without meeting her, but hopefully some of those might be useful. Sledge and Instagram poster or sledge and boots and popcorn would be my gut instinct.

    How about the DVD gift maze, pop a DVD in there then they have to solve the maze to be able to actually get the DVD out :

    love the instagram idea, however, I don't think she uses it!

    DVD gift maze looks good too. Drinking fudge and luxury popcorn, would have to make sure I am around when she opens them :O

    I got my chrimble shopping sorted out - I'm letting her decide what she wants and she'll buy it. I then receive the goods, wrap them and she gets a double whammy of present euphoria... worked for her birthday too
