Can you buy a gift for a penny?

[wheresmartin]

My daughter's school has a challenge for puils to buy each other gifts for a penny (!) Can anyone suggest where we might find ANYTHING for a penny??

barter for something at a carboot sale

Hi!
Well my first thought would be a penny sweet (assuming they still do them at a 1p, inflation and all that) other than that she may get a 1p bargain on eBay?! Looking forward to seeing others suggestions :o)

Could they collect their pennies together to buy a packet of something that would split down to each item costing a penny? What about buying a bag of millions sweeties and splitting them into 1p portions?

I heard M&S were doing a penny market to celebrate their birthday or something?
