Tickets to Rebecca Storm & a meal in the New Year?
I got my mam her favourite perfume, a lovely bracelet for Debra Ireland and a pretty tealight holder.
For my MIL, we all clubbed together and got her and FIL a weekend in Pisa in January - that cost €400 to book including flights and accommodation.
What about a spa day? We got that for my mam a couple of years back and while it wasn't something she would ever have considered it went down a treat!
Last year I got her an oil painting, which she loves and has on her bedroom wall - that's something you do have to be careful with as it's important to know personal tastes!
