What are you buying your Mum this Christmas?

[Crimson Dynamo]

apologies to any member whose Mum is no longer with us :hug:

also if you are American or a subsidiary state like Canada or Ireland I mean Mom

well?

[Shaun]

She's asked for a handful of things so I've been trying to pick them up as I go along the past 2 months...

The main present (well, it's nothing substantial, but I think it'll mean the most to her), is she wanted something made with lots of photos of us, her kids, grandkids, cats, etc., so I was going to get a calendar made for her... I would do a big canvas but it'd require photo editing and I think that sometimes ends up looking tacky/weird so I'd rather just use photos that exist and many of them...

And then:
- Some moisturiser/foundation thing she's run out of
- Mrs Browns Boys D'Movie
- Olay Regenerist stuff
- and maybe a pair of slippers too (haven't seen a pair she'd like yet, think she wants sort-of-Ugg ones)

[Will.]

a £12 waterfall cardigan, black and white.

Mrs Browns Boys D'Movie - same:joker:

I've grown to tolerate the TV show, and had to download the movie for her when it came out :laugh: it's not as bad as Miranda, but not something I'd choose to watch

[Jordan.]

A purse and a book

[smudgie]

My mother died years ago, but I still send a little present in the form of a cheque to the Sally Army in her memory every Christmas.

A bicycle I think, she's wanted one for ages, one with a basket and all that jazz

The only thing is where the logistics/where to hide it

[Amy Jade]

Why didn't you return it to Debenhams?

Can I do that? it's not faulty

[Cherie]

As long as you have the receipt you will get your money back, no receipt you will get a voucher Amy

An award for having the best child.

I'm going to buy mine something related to chickens or owls (two of her favourite animals, she goes nuts over stuff like that)

[Amy Jade]

Thanks Cherie! I'll take it back tomorrow :love:

[Josy]

I think boots are selling that for 45 atm Amy

[Daniel-X]

I think I'm getting her a set of little individual Jo Malone perfumes. Saw it for thirty pounds so I'll probably pay like twenty and get a tenner off my nana or something

[Benjamin]

I haven't got my mum a present or even spent Christmas with her since I was 15. :laugh:

[Amy Jade]

[Cal.]

A Pandora Charm to go with the bracelet my dad has brought her.
I usually buy her a gift bag with a pot of Vaseline, hand cream, hand sanitizer ect for her handbag so idk I might get that too.

[Jack.]

I've got my mum this year
Rod Stewart latest album
Lynx women giftset
Box of chocolates

[rubymoo]

Both my mum and mum in law are no longer with us:bawling:

Probably why i get so bummed out at Christmas, i usually put wreaths on their graves.

So to everyone who has a mum, buy her something special and if you can't afford it, make her something/give her your time:wavey:

[Cherie]

Thanks Cherie! I'll take it back tomorrow :love:

If the item has gone down in price and you don't have the receipt you will only get a voucher for the current sale price, heres hoping you have the receipt. :worry:

A beautiful gesture Smudgie. I do something similar too as my Mother passed away years ago (and my Father) but I donate to two other Charities which both my parents favoured.

[Mystic Mock]

I'm buying my Mom a Ben Haenow Album for Christmas as that's what she really wants.

I'm getting my Niece something Minecraft related I'll just have to think what, and with my Nephew I'm getting him a Wallykazam! DVD.

Yes, It helps me on some level knowing I am doing something for them at Christmas.
Yorkshire air ambulance gets the cheque for my dad at Christmas and the Poppy appeal/ British legion are our year round charity.
We don't have any parents or in-laws now so not many presents to buy:shrug:

[Crimson Dynamo]

we are going to lay a chrimbo wreath on my dads grave at the weekend
