need some buying halps

so, my good lady has decided that she'd like a nice DSLR for chrimbo. she's quite taken by the 450D due to the image stabilization that wasn't in the 400 apparently as she has an interest in macro photographising at some point.

i really have a budget of £350, so know i'm kinda scraping the barrel.

doesn't have to be new, so can hopefully make the most of it that way.

would i be best getting a body only and cheap lens, or just get the body and kit lense, or just crying into my tea that i can't afford it and she can just get a lump of coal for christmas?
