Sending gifts home
Hi

Just wonder if you can recommend any sites that send gifts back to the uk either Oz or UK based. We have our daughters birthday this month plus her engagement next month (dont ask) I know about M&S but my friend sent family pressies from them beginning of december & they failed to get them.

Was it sent by ship or air?

If by ship you have to allow minimum of 8 weeks, more like 12-16 realistically!

I know its the old standard but what about amazon UK they sell everything now and will wrap it and post it, not sure if that will work for you.

Hi Kaye

Thanks for that thought. She doesnt read & wouldnt know what music to get her. If I send her money she will spend it on the kids

Hi Janette,

We've sent argos vouchers and it's my dads birthday next week and we didnt' know what to get him - ordered him a bottle of malt, a good red wine and a dvd from sainsburys' - supposed to arrive between 11 - 12 on the day (I'll let you know!!!). Other thoughts are Asda and Tesco do lots of gifts now as well as groceries and also next will deliver to uk

Ali
