I wrote this top tips blog post on how to enjoy Christmas on a budget, and even ended up implementing some of the tips into my own Christmas spending.
If you’re looking to spend less on gifts this Christmas, here are five easy ways you can enjoy Christmas on a budget.
1. Buy pre-loved or second-hand items
Sites like eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Vinted, Preloved and Gumtree are some of the many online sites where people are selling their pre-loved items. You could probably grab yourself a lovely gift for a steal of a price.
2. Consider doing Secret Santa this year with your family (or friends)
With Secret Santa, everyone has to buy one gift for a member of the family, at an agreed price. You then pick someone’s name at random, and have fun choosing them a gift for the agreed amount. This way everyone receives a gift and spending is kept to a minimum.
3. Make your gifts
Why not get creative this Christmas? Show your friends and family how much you love them by spending a bit of time making them something special. Not sure what to make? Head over to Pinterest for some inspiration...
...Bonus tip: Start preparing for next Christmas early
If you’ve got a little extra left over, why not take advantage of the Boxing Day sales to tuck away a few bargains ahead of next Christmas? You could also save the wrapping paper from the gifts your family receive and re-use it next year.
