We keep track of stuff we'd like to buy using the Amazon Universal Gift list ... it's just here to provide examples really - behold the 3 Midgleys List.
Plus we use my wish list on ShopStyle as a quick way to store clothes/sizes for the three of us too.
More tradiotally, ideas for Pressies are here:
Iain
- cinema vouchers
- Tassimo discs that are more exciting than the standard columbian or other plain coffee that we find in the supermarket (Tassimo do lattes and cappuccinos but the shops never have them, and we never order it online somehow)
- nice clothes/vouchers (he always has to make do with Matalan and Tescos now, which is fine, but poor guy, he does love nice stuff)
- Nokia Lumia
- big mugs - he loves his mugs
Nadiya
- Anything with Hello Kitty on it
- Forego buying a gift some sponsorship money to my Moonwalk which I am doing in May.
- Fairisle jumper or leggings (love fairisle everything - uniqlo and Awear do lots)
- John Frieda curly shampoo, conditioner, serum.
- cross-trainer running shoes for my overpronated feet
- Sweaty Betty running gear/vouchers
- I'd love a vivid green colour on my gear for training or just clothes anyway (fleece? beanie? climacool t-shirt? thermals? waterproofs?) some of the brands call it a kelly green, a bit brighter than a matt emerald
- Doggie stuff - like lead, collar, bowls, car-seat, bag for carrying, reflective harness for night-walks.
- tea cups and saucers - a longing for some grown up sophistication.
Jaan
- hotweels-type car stuff to make races - this is what he really wants. He has many hotwheels cars, only one cheap Tescos loop though, not a proper hotwheels run/track/loop
- Trunki car seat/bag combo
- VTech device - the new awesome one the innotab
- PlayDoh mashed potatoes game
- baby meccano
- shoes/trousers/tops sizes 3-4 if they are trousers or big baggy things but top things mainly aged 4-5. Good socks for a size 9-12 foot - he is a big size 10. He has enough jumpers, coats, gilets and sweatshirts.
- modelling stuff - paper clay, plastecine
- glitter stuff for model making - he loves glitter, specially blue and gold
- puzzles (40-60 or even 100 pieces but not pieces that are very small)
- board games for 4-5 year olds - like ludo or snakes & ladders
- bath fizzers - he adores them
