How to decorate for Christmas on a budget?

It is commonly known that Christmas can be a budget-draining period. After all those presents, festive food, and wines, your budget might be somewhat dry. So why not consider decorating on a budget or even making the decorations yourself?

To help you save some money we've gathered here some of the best discount codes. However, if you're not a fan of buying, then you can make a little DIY project with your family and kids. From customised Christmas globes to snowflakes and more, all you need is a pair of scissors, some coloured paper, glue, and a sprinkle of imagination.

How to make Christmas shopping less stressful?

Preparing ahead for Christmas is more than half the battle won. To make your Xmas shopping less stressful, consider some of the tried and tested tips listed below:

• Before you set out shopping for Christmas presents for everyone, you must calculate your budget so that you don’t end up broke by the end of the day.
• Make an old-fashioned note of all the people you need to buy gifts for. This can ensure that you know how to manage your money better and spend less on unimportant things.
• Save your pennies by staying away from department stores and purchasing the same items for cheaper online. Avoid the in-store crowds and enjoy pocket-pleasing deals with hand-tested and verified voucher codes from the Independent UK that you won’t find anywhere else.
• Resist impulsive shopping this Christmas so that you don’t spend a fortune on things you have absolutely no need of.
• Stay on top of your finances by picking up a Christmas present or two whenever you spot a good deal online.
• Advance holiday planning can thus ensure that you get all the shopping done well before Christmas at rock-bottom prices.
