    Need a €10 gift idea for a girl in her late 20's that I work with. I honestly know little or nothing about her.
    It's a kris kringle gift. Something small but nice and not lazy like a gift voucher.

    You can't go far wrong with a gift set from your chemists. Bath salts, moisturiser -- all the female stuff men don't understand.

    I can honestly say that as a girl in her late twenties I would not be impressed with a bath set.

    What about something like a nice cup and saucer, with a cake plate, you get all three from Dunnes for about a tenner.

    Or a mug, tea egg and some nice tea - the first two can be found at Tiger stores for cheap, small bag of tea will cost about four euro.

    I was going to suggest something with a mug too. A mug, some cosy slipper socks and something sweet. Stick them in the mug and you have a nice little gift. You'd get everything in Dunnes.

    I love sets with nail polish and lip glosses etc, but a bath set not so much either. Although Lush do gorgeous bath sets I have to say.

    The cup and saucer idea is a really nice one. :)

    A guy at work who hardly knew me once got me a ten euro gift voucher to the local cinema. I thought it was a great idea.

    Anything but a bath set. Last Secret Santa gift I got was a beautiful notebook (I always carry one with me to jot random things down) and some cute Christmas socks. I loved it!

    I got a soap and glory set from mine in work 1 year,I was delighted with it.
    There are little yankee candle sets half price in homestore and more.
    a scarf,something funny I got mine racing grannies one year and it was a hit!

    I was going to say a Yankee candle set too. Can't go wrong with a nice mug and fluffy socks either, though. Maybe a Jo Malone candle?
