    Ah pressie for the girl that you dont know that long. This one is a tough one. The way to go about this is to go for the fairly cheap but very cute (funny) but thoughtful pressie. What I mean is get something cheap but something that will have a meaning to her. If its too expensive then you will look too full on, and if it just cheap you will look cheap.

    Its just a suggestion but id recomend that maybe you get her a flinstones teddy or sommin like that and just look shy smile and say "it all I could think of" and laugh when you give it too her. Remember when I said cute I also meant something with a touch of humor. If the finstones isn't appropriate then id suggest that perhaps you think of somin like Poo Bear or the Mr.Men are allways winners.

    Well theres my 2 cents and good luck with it. :D

    If you really like her, then what's the harm in getting her something for her birthday?

    Remember, though, it really is the thought that counts, and considering that you don't know her all that well yet, don't go to excessive expense buying the pressie. Instead, try to get something that's "different" and that'll remind her of you...

    just so she has no doubts as to your intentions....i can help you out with the handcuffs...AND GET YOUR LAZY ASS TO CLASS...

    even before I read Wolf's answer, I was gonna suggest a teddy - it's thoughtful without being over the top (as you just met)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,602 ✭✭✭ShayK1

    Where the hell are you?

    If you're in Dublin, try Carroll's (many locations) or the Card Shop on Grafton Street.

    Or to buy online, try http://www.collectorman.com/flint.html#plush or http://pages.tias.com/516/InventoryPage/12285/1.html

    hope that helps!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭Wolf


    Well where you from. If Dublin try that place in st.stephens green. If not just try different toy shops.

    If you have trouble finding a flinstone teddy remember I reckon anything nice finstones would do but teddies are best. Iv seen them around before if you are in Dublin a few hours askin around in town and you get one eventually no bothers. Also there is a shop just too the left of central bank (heading towards temple bar) that I got my sis a grommit toy bag thingy. She liked it :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭Wolf


    Ok rather than start a new thread iv got a similar question. Mine is that theres this girl and shes kinda special to me and I need to get her sommin thats nice but for various reasons I cant get sommin too big or romanic or anything like that. What do I get her !??!!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,802 ✭✭✭thegills


    Send a b-day card and tell her you will give her the present the next time you see her (arrange a date). When you meet next, plant a kiss on her cheek, wish her happy birthday, give her the small gift hidden behind your back (Teddy or flowers) and then tell her you are taking her for dinner (or lunch, depending on time of day)

    It's unlikely that you will see her before your back in college though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,472 ✭✭✭Sposs


    Just give her a hug,thats what i give my family for their bdays.

    Get her a soft cuddly toy and/or roses.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭Wolf

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 990 ✭✭✭lili


    if she has a mobil phone send her a message to tell her how much you enjoyed the week end you spend with her.
    for the gift, depends how deep is your feeling for her and her tasts. but a little thing she could wear on or bring with her would be appreciated i think:)

    Wolf person...

    Why not buy her a generic teddy. Like a doggy. It's cute but not suggestive.

    Great idea - get her a teddy "doggy style".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,164 ✭✭✭Space Coyote


    Why not surprise her with a big basket of porn ???
    Its probly the last thing she'd be expecting ...
    clever eh ???

    :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,602 ✭✭✭ShayK1

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    Congrats Shay :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,817 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    Tell the truth, this is a an elaobarte plot so you can buy someone a Talking Stitch so you can play with it all day with out feeling guilty.....


    I'm looking for a "Mike" or "Sully" teddy from Monsters Inc. or a Shrek...or a Muppet teddy.

    Was seriously going to buy an Animal or Fozzy teddy.
    I'd prefer a swedish chef or a Gonzo though.

    If I ahd to get a christmas present for a little girl (niece/godchild/whatever) I'd get the "little girl" from monsters inc.

    Or a Wuzzle. Remember them? :)

    I had a Tycoon.
