Scorched almonds hehe.
Or something homemade. Bath salts, bath bombs, baking etc Buy a cool mug and put some baking in it wrapped in cellophane. -------------

My first instinct was to say a block of chocolate (was recently given a block of Lindt Intense Mint which is more expensive than the likes of Cadbury or Whittakers so a little bit more 'special' I guess)
Another thought, a small photo frame... Or a magazine - guess this would only be good if you've been given a person to buy for as opposed to a lucky dip type situation. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Or try http://onedollar.co.nz/ - One Dollar , it's a one day sale website and has things for $1!! You would have to consider postage costs though
Or could you bake a cake, make biscuits/snowballs/sweets etc?? ------------- Lindsey

Harvey Normans recently had LCD photoframe key rings for $5 (you know those ones you normally plug in and it plays all your pics...) we got one of those for a secret santa. You just plug it into your comp and upload the pics. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
