hi, im going on holiday to Egypt for two weeks very shortly and i always bring back my friends a small gift from a holiday abroad as they do for me.
I have never been to Egypt so i have no idea what to get them, i have 6 14 year old girls to buy for.
any suggestions welcome, but i don't want it to be edible at all
thank you
I and my friends are from the UK by the way.x
 
Hi i went to sharm back in July, i brought canvas paintings, they do them in the street really quickly and there awesome, great talent to have. your see what I'm on about as there everywhere. You can always haggle a price down as well never go at the first price as they try and over charge you by loads. Over then that its the usual ornaments - pyramids, the gods, animals, you might wanna buy something called shisha, they smoke it 24/7 its legal and wont harm you. They smoke it through a pipe it looks like drugs but its not, you can get loads of flavours. Your see lots out there, they have lots of clothes shops and that but its most likely all to be fake. They do all kinds of jewellery throughout the city centre, your most likely have a shop in your hotel that sells gifts to.

Hope this helps. x
 
Hi again.
They sell nice scarves, in shiny fabrics, all jewell coloured with tassles, that can be worn round the neck, shoulders or waist. Also Pashminas that are thicker for the wintery weather.
Also we bought purses, handbags ~ but if you just want something very inexpensive the (hotel) shop sells a good range of necklaces and bangles.
You'll be spoilt for choice! And they take £10 and £20 in sterling, even pound coins. My little girls got lots of lovely trinkets. They even got fridge magnets, pens, pencil cases and key rings.
If you are at the holiday village (previous Q) the shops are great and not over priced, good competitive prices.
