Hi
Im trying to make a couple of totally free or very cheap food hampers for xmas gifts as money is quite tight. Thought it may be a good idea to make a new thread of freebies and cheap items we could put in.
I will start, i am going to get one of those fruit boxes in the nice designs and line it with tissue paper.
For my hampers so far
Nestles Honey Shreddies (Free from tesco with coupon on coupon board)
Cambells soup (Free with coupon on board)
Box of Tesco finest biscuits for cheese 59p
Anyone who would like to add to this we could share ideas and build up a lovely useful gift at very little cost. HTH x
