AS THE festive season approaches, savvy shoppers are on the hunt for ways to make their money go further while still giving thoughtful, premium gifts.
But, with the cost-of-living crunching down on Christmas budgets, households are having to look for alternative ways to get more bang for their buck.
Luckily, Anita Naik, savings expert at the nation’s most trusted voucher website VoucherCodes.co.uk, has uncovered an unbeatable tip to secure those all-important gifts for a fraction of the price.
If your friends and family have expensive taste, but your festive budget is looking a little more basic than boujee this year, there is a great way to make huge savings and still satisfy those wish lists – advent calendars
Anita explains: “Each year, retailers run advent calendars with several gifts included, ranging from luxury skincare and beauty to homeware, toys, or even socks.
“The calendars are often marketed to contain products worth hundreds of pounds, but actually cost just a fraction of that price.
“So, in order to attain hundreds of pounds worth of re-giftable products, savvy shoppers can split the calendar’s contents into multiple presents for friends and family, giving premium presents without the hefty price tag.”
Anita has uncovered an unbeatable deal with the LookFantastic Iconic Beauty Advent Calendar, offering £565 worth of top-tier beauty products for just £100.
Including 27 luxury beauty items, this limited-edition advent calendar is the perfect cost-effective solution for splitting down and re-gifting.
