I need help Tattlers! My family do secret Santa and the relative I drew has chosen a theme of Disney because they’re going there next year. I don’t know what to get. The budget is £40 and I’ve spent £20 on a quiz set, some chocolates and a decoration. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I would say ears, if they're a Disney person they'll wear them there, a Disney bag, asda and primark have some crossover Disney bags. A battery phone charger is useful for the parks, if you want to go down the useful route. A Disney t- shirt for when they are there.

I agree with the other suggestions of ears - MagicMakerEars are based in the uk and make some really nice ones

You could also check Vinted for some of the Disney x Cath Kidston bags. I got a cross body bag for £8 that looks brand new

Does anyone have any good ideas of things you’re getting for your partner? I’ve got mine his 2 main things, but I am struggling to think of what else to get him!

I’ve got him aftershave and Birkenstocks so far for context

Thank you all for the Disney suggestions, much appreciated! I think I‘m going to go for some ears and look on Vinted for bags etc.

Help please - what’s the best Christmas gift that you’ve been given by your boss? I usually buy my team some Hotel Chocolat or a decent bottle of wine but would like to mix it up a bit this year.

My company gave us amazon gift cards in lockdown instead of the christmas party which was brilliant. Depends how much you're looking on spending but given the cost of everything I would really appreciate a £10 amazon gift card.

A few years back we all got a mug with our initial on, filled with some chocolates. It was nice because the mugs were something that would last and they still get used daily!

I visited Manchester Christmas markets yesterday and was so disappointed. I was hoping to get a few extra presents but I didn't see a single stall selling things that weren't overpriced tat. It honestly just seems an excuse for people to drink in the streets now.
