Perfume
Suit
Perfume

I need something unique na .. something heart touching ... I always end up taking perfumes /purses/suits for them ....
they are both in their late 50's .. and least interested in perfumes and purses ... or even suits for that matter ...
so I need ideas or any good deals any one might seen recently with maybe some kitchen appliances or anything useful?
Re: Gift dillema… Helllllll pppppp
Alright I’m not based in the UK so I guess I’m not supposed to talk here

Just that I thought the ones in england will be able to give me the names of the shops they saw the deals in .. 
Yeah yeah, sure! some genuine invitation to participate!

Body Shop have the most cutest little Mother's day hampers/gift sets at the moment.
Flowers
Book a day out, for the near future, to a spa. You can take both ladies alongside yourself.
Make your own little food hamper- bake a cafe/muffins/cookies, add a nice pot of jam, honey, sweets, chocolates, chocolates and more chocolates,
Jewellery- bracelet/earrings
I think the most important thing is just being there. I am sure that will suffice :)
I am not going to be home in time for Mother's Day:(
Re: Gift dillema... Helllllll pppppp
OOooo and make up- get their favourite make up item/s
Stop complaining now , you little bugger .. :pkj: 
Re: Gift dillema… Helllllll pppppp
They don’t have to be jelly beans and gummy bears:smack: Thorntons do lovely ‘posh’ boxed chocolates/fudge and it can be presented in a nice box/woven basket.This is one idea which can be varied to age and gender.
I thought it was a nice idea. I did it for my daadijaan a while back when she was not well
just being an arse basically 
The thing is, I am also planning to visit home in 2 or 3 weeks Inshallah, and I have absolutely no idea what to take for my old lady

Aww DDR .. Mothers day is always so emotional ! but hey , cheer up .. moms are always close to the heart no matter where they live ...
I like the hamper idea .. whats usually in those hampers , any idea?
jelly beans and gummy bears!!
Yeah the idea isn’t really bad, but the old ladies in my family are all diabetics 
I cant expect to take chocolates home to them and come back alive
I saw that confusion coming ! why else would you be found in here … ..
secretly trying to steal away some ideas from all the lovely people in here … eh?
Well… you are in Dubai , that place is full of beautiful gift ideas … I am thinking hard and will let you know if any striking ideas come up …
The Body Shop or the other one? The food ones you can construct yourself.
My mum is not too keen on Mother’s Day. She always says I would rather you were well behaved all year round:omg: I will be home next week though inshallah:hula:
I have bullied my sister into making breakfast in bed for my parents, as that is what I normally do. However, my mum normally ends up making my sister’s breakfast:rofl: So fingers crossed she wakes up in time:smack:
Oh and add handbags/purse to your list
Yes please do! you will be a life saver!
Jaanwar. is your mom pretty traditional lady ? I mean , my mom is like simple to the core .. she doesnt wear jwellery / heavy clothes/ makeup … she has her stuff which lasts her years .. and doesnt get excited at the usual ladies stuff ..
but since she cooks , but finds it hard to cut vege’s and all … I gifted her automatic knife set , she fell in love with it.. there was this shop in Deira , where i bought it from .. you might check on internet …
also you might wanna take any other automated kitchen appliances to ease her life in the kitchen …
Yeh in that case no sweet stuff.
In that case for your ammi how about something from the following make up/handbag/shoes/purse/jewellery/perfume/clothes?
If you want something slightly personalised, how about a nice picture which means something to you or your mum on a canvas or in a picture frame.
Vases are always cool too or anything for the home. Get them something they need or will use:)
