Secret Santa Gift ideas!


Hey guys, i dont know about you but around Christmas time i feel like i am the poorest person alive.To be fair, then an advert usually comes on about NSPCC and Operation Christmas child and i feel bug guilty!

But it's true we are what they call 'TEENS' who most probably than not at this awkward age do not earn money in the palm of our hands 24/7 and the money we do have we want to waste on Topshop and Malibu...

This year me and my buddies decided we were going to do a secret Santa and spend £1 on each of the persons participating eg. 6 people - £6 pounds spent on your allocated person.I think its a brilliant idea because then you get a personalized present that's more thought about and a bit more money has gone into it than the usual last minute tube of smarties for a hundred million people.

However if your like me and have a few groups of friends it can start to get expensive - for some reason this year i have agreed to 3 secret santas meaning i will be spending a brilliant amount of £25 pounds , which is what i wanted to avoid! I don't mean to sound cheap. Ahh i'm digging myself a whole here, but i love my friends anytime of the year and to me i'd rather w e all agreed not to get each other anything for Christmas! Its especially awkward when someone your 'FRIENDLY WITH BUT NOT FRIENDS' tells you she has bought you something worth £15 pounds for Christmas. Still have that mountain to conquer yet!

I have - being a complete and utter shopaholic- scoured all corners of the internet world of shopping and found some cute inexpensive snuggles of gifts and pressies as ideas for a few of you last minute Sallys...
