I think hampers are a waste of time. Half the stuff you get you often dont use or like, and give away. We gave up years ago & now we put a couple of quids worth of supermarket saving stamps on a savings card, per week. By christmas you have about £100 to spend on a lot of groceries booze ect. You get far more choice and value for money that way Elaine x

We do a hamper for my 85yo mother every Christmas. We buy ordinary things like butter and soup - of course we only include things we know she likes. Trying to buy presents for the oldies is v hard so maybe this is a solution for you too. ps - Ready made hampers are rubbish Bob

ive been lucky enough,to have seen wendy's website,and theres a big difference,between her company,and that of her competitors,as her hampers are bespoke. she also offers a personal shopping service,which can take the headache out of that special occasion,allowing you to relax,and enjoy yourself. congratulations wendy,its so good to see someone making something of their lives. bryan.
