MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
For a charity, all I know is she is thirteen. I want to spend about £10-£15. Need to be able to buy it on the high-street in the next few days.
What would you get?
Gift voucher for Claires/Accesorize / whatever.
If you really have to get something you can wrap up, check out whatever's on the front cover of the teenie girl mags.
A nice warm scarf hat and gloves set.
It has to be a toy. I have to wrap it and I dont want to buy makeup/fashion cr@p.
It has to be a toy.
13yr old girls don't really do toys, at least my 11yr old one is growing out of them. Makeup/fashion is where it's at. A cool hat, maybe?
I like the hat and scarf idea. Any others??
itunes/music voucher
A Perry the Platypus. Believe me, they all want one!
Can you hire a 15yr old boy on that budget?
The charity is for under privileged kids so I doubt they will have any Apple products.
Very difficult at that age - if they aren't interested in it they won't WANT to be.
All I ever get for my two nieces now (13 and 14) is vouchers for New Look or HMV. If I ever think of something that I think they will love it doesn't see the light of day again.

Seriously, I'd go for a gift voucher for Claires or whatever, if I were used to living on the bread line being able to head into a shop like that and buy what I really want (instead of what some 30-40 something middle-class mountain biker thinks I want...) would be great.
A bag of skunk? Bottle of vodka? A knife?
On a serious note, what mogrim said.
Lingerie?
a couple of those vampire books that got made into films
moleskin diary

So inappropriate. Quite frankly youse should be ashamed of yourselves. 😐
So inappropriate
But you have to admit that a 15yr old boy and a bottle of vodka would probably be a perfect present for a 13yr old girl...
Nice diary/book thing
Actually, you're right Effin. I take it back. It was inappropriate.
Couple of issues I can see with the tokens,
1) If she's so underprivileged, how likely is she to find herself shopping in town?
2) All the other kids open their presents on Christmas Day, she excitedly tears hers open and gets... a voucher. Sure, she can probably go buy something she wants, but that's a pretty crappy Christmas Day. Everyone else gets cool stuff, she can has to wait a couple more days for hers.
I went for a nice hat scarf and gloves set in a box. I think the idea is that they get something to open on Christmas day, I cant see anyone opening it and being that disappointed.
