Looking for a Christmas present for her indoors, she has a 4s which she takes a lot of photos with so was thinking of a clip on macro lens. I have seen some cheapo ones but is it worth spending a little more to buy the one they have in the apple shop? You can tell I know sweet FA about photography!

Thanks for that, looks like the olloclip could get the vote.

You're welcome, never used one myself, but it's what I would choose myself.

These ones look OK, not too expensive: http://photojojo.com/store/awesomeness/cell-phone-lenses/
Though maybe expensive for postage/import duty from the US.

CraigW, see the allthingsd.com review.
US postage can really bite you in the ass, it can easily double the cost of something. I bought a book with a cd, both signed by the artist, cost me $22, but $30 postage!
And then I had to pay import duty and VAT, plus handling charge.
I felt royally shafted by that.
