  • I have opted for recycled / eco-friendly options this year Including some charity shop buys (pls don't tell you know how ppl get offended!)

    Save the children are doing some great gift certificates. I got one of these for someone but I know that they will appreciate it - other ppl may be offended that its not wholly for them!

    Charity shops have some great jewellery in their glass counters - really cheap, I picked up some great retro stuff.

    Also always get loads of novelty socks from the market and put smellies in them!

    Bought loads of stocking fillers from https://www.eco-office-supplies.co.uk they are the cheapest stockist of the Remarkable products.

    Also printed out pics of my kids and put them in some cheap ikea frames - similarly sometimes get the kids to do collages.

    Got a friend who sells cheese so will get some from him, boards from wilkies, maybe some wine or port and make up some little hampers.

    All in all I know I am a cheap skate but I really enjoy doing things like this makes pressies much more personal (I think)
  • And don't forget Ebay! Although remember to check out feedback I have been waiting a while now for a couple of items and the ppls feedback is a bit dodgy so I think my gamble hasn't paid off this time!

    Not strictly under £5 but if you fancy a bit of naughtiness yourself then you could get a free red devil vibe for the secret santa :rotfl: :rotfl: If your workmates are openminded that is :eek:

    Those edible g-strings etc. made out of candy necklace are about a fiver in Ann Summers aren't they. Could be another fun suggestion :)
