Nah, cash doesn't beat a well thought out gift, but...

I find when I do tell people what I want, its probably all a bit too specific and a hassle to find, so I end up with socks, jumper or voucher for some crud store anyway Not that I'm ungrateful or anything

I just order the stuff myself, have it delivered to the gift provider, they wrap it up, then pay me back.

Or just provide them with a handy link to a specific product on ebuyer et al!

Functional and festive!

hehe, you know the last couple of years I've sent a whole load of URL's linked directly to respected retailers product pages as suggested gifts and still receive zip from the list, but I've never gone the whole hog and ordered it, genius
