Blogmas Day 4: Budget Gift Guide

Hello hello to everyone! How are we all today? Getting into the festive spirit? Good, because today I have planned a gift guide!

Now I'm sure there are some of you out there who, like me, are MASSIVE cheapskates? Am I wrong? I dare you to tell me I'm wrong. Its horrible, especially around this time of year because we want to find the greatest gift that I can give my family (Sainsbury's advert!!!), but everything is just so blummin' pricy!

Luckily, nowadays, we have the internet, so shopping around to find the absolute cheapest thing we can isn't so much of a chore. And hopefully now that I've done ll the hard work for you, Christmas will be a breeeeeeeeeeeze!

I'm a great believer in the fact that no house should be without a biscuit tin, and no house can have too many biscuit tins, and this beautiful festive one is bound to put a smile on someone's face! Want to take it a bit further? Purchase someone their favourite biscuit to fill it with! And when it's only £2.99, you really can't go wrong!

I don't know what it is about these selfie kits at the moment, but they're absolutely everywhere! However I think this is a really cute gift idea if you have a particularly photogenic family, or maybe even better if you have a really UNphotogenic family! If you really super strapped for cash, you could even make the props yourself, but come on, loosen the purse strings a bit! It's only £4.99!

I personally think that one of the best gifts you can ever give or receive is the gift of comfort and warmth. That's why I think that this PERSONALIZABLE DRESSING GOWN (is there any word there that doesn't sound AMAZING?) is one of the best gifts that has ever been invented! And for the price of £7.99, I think this may be heaven!

Continuing on with this theme of warmth and comfort, I want to introduce you to something that I've actually already bought for someone - this amazing neck and shoulders hot water bottle! If you know one of those people (or are one of those people) who are always complaining about your cold neck and shoulders - you know who you are - then I think that this would be perfect for you. I know that you can get the microwavable ones like this, but I've never actually seen one designed for water. It's only £5, and is just a bit different to your standard hot water bottle.

For those health nuts and vegans amongst us (again, you know who you are), I can't imagine a better gift than these amazing bunny ear salad servers! I mean just look at them! Cute and practical and (according to the website) meant to turn you into a rabbit! And all for just £4.99!

For the gardener who's actually requested that you DON'T get them gardening gloves for the fourth year in a row, this amazing flamingo watering can will definitely make you their favourite again! Not only is it fun and pretty, you could hide it in the bushes and make people think they've entered a mystic wonderland where there are flamingos hiding in bushes! It's only £7.99, and just think of the hours of fun you could have with it!

And lastly, because it's Christmas and this is possibly the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life, this colour-changing mug! With heat the nose changes from black to red - isn't that just what you want to be drinking from on Christmas morning? And although it is the most priciest of this little list at a hefty £9.99, you could fill it with some cocoa powder and mini marshmallows and create a luxury gift for a hot chocolate addict (cough cough hint hint)!

I know that this isn't the longest list in the world, but I hope that on it you found some good gifts for other people, some excellent gifts for yourself, and failing that, some new cheapskate websites to have a little look on!

See you tomorrow!
