My sister moved to england a month ago and its her birthday coming up. Rather than buying something here and sending it over I was thinking maybe i could find a cool shop or something over there that has an online shop but i have no idea where to start looking or what sort of store i could look at. Anyone have any ideas?

Oh and she is in Cambridge

We use Amazon.co.uk all the time for pressies to family in the UK, they seem to cover most types of gifts. and they gift wrap too Also for cards and things try this site www.dontforgetyourcard.com
and for CDs DVDs etc there is www.CDwow.co.uk, they have a link to two other sites Wow woman for ladies gifts and Firebox for mens toys and for gift wouchers for various UK shops - www.voucherexpress.co.uk
sorry don't know how to do the linky thing. But hope this helps, saves us a lot of airmail costs out there. wehave used all of them from NZ and had no problems

We also use amazon, but have also used Marks & Spencers www.marksandspencer.com they do nice flowers and will deliver anywhere in the UK. If you wanted to do perfume or cosmetics try Boots... www.boots.com

If you were feeling really flash and werent worried about spending a bit of cash - try http://www.harveynichols.com/hampers/ProductDisplay.aspx?catID=3

We used to use Amazon the other way around - when we were in the UK and wanted to send presents here....worked really well!

Happy Shopping!
