subject: 4 Ideas to Help You Stay Within Your Christmas Gift Budget [print this page] If you're going through a tight budget this year, take some cheer with these tips to help you complete your Christmas gift shopping on a budget.
Don't Ask!
As soon as you ask people what they want for Christmas, the bar starts getting raised. Presents are asked for which may be above your budget. Alternatively they ask for a particular gift that is cost effective, but they'll know precisely what you spent!
Go online
Doing your Christmas shopping on the internet can save money. You know the drill - large warehouses, no shop fronts, lower costs etc. Comparing prices is where things become interesting! You can quickly make a price comparison for the gift you're looking to purchase at loads of retailers by searching for the product name in Google or another search engine in seconds instead of hours going in and out of shops in the cold.
Go Freestyle
Don't tread the same old worn paths. You can find a whole world of unique and unusual Christmas presents, which you won't find in the high street shops, online. This allows you to purchase a gift that won't be judged on price alone, but the impact it makes on the person.
Get Personalised
Nothing hits the mark quite like personalised gifts. These can range from amusing spoof presents or personalised calendars, which can be found for less than 10, to more costly engraved silver and crystal gifts. Many people simply don't know that presents including the recipient's name can be purchased at such an affordable price.
It's easy to go over the top at Christmas and pay the price, however with these gift ideas you'll find presents that fit the bill and don't cost the earth!
