Gift from the US

[Cathy]

My Aunt is coming over from the US soon, and she's asked us what we would like as a little present. Can anyone think of something that wouldn't cost very much, but that I could only get from America?

A snowglobe from whatever city your aunt is from. Terribly kitsch and tacky, but I love them.

I have a chain on my back door which I bought in the US and have never seen in the UK. It's to stop the door opening too wide, not a front door security chain, and it has a spring built in to cushion the whump when a gust of wind catches the door and flings it open.

Levi Jeans were less than half the price last time I was over in the US.

How about a tacky state license plate from your aunt's home state (you can get those in most malls for about $10-15). Are you looking for quality or tacky/kitsch? How about foodstuffs?

[Cathy]

I don't want anything too tacky, although I like the idea of a license plate. I also like the idea of food, but I don't really know what in particular I could ask for. My Aunt lives in Montana, if that makes a difference.

What about some pure maple syrup, then? The real deal is much cheaper over there than it is here.

hershey nuggets, the only good chocolate to come out of America

[Cathy]

Well, I've made my decision and asked my Auntie for some sweets and maple syrup. Thank you all for your suggestions, I'd still be dithering without them. (I'm a Libra and Librans are supposed to be indecisive, but I'm not sure if I believe that)
