Downloaded no more socks app early August and have ended up buying almost all of my gifts apart from my DS who I will buy for nearer to Nov/December. The majority of the gifts have been bought by sourcing discount codes etc which has saved me quite a bit.
For instances I've bought my MIL and 2X SIL Benefit kits from Look Fantastic and used a 20% off discount code voucher on them saving almost £20.00. also if you spend over £55 you get a free benefit mini kit worth £20.50 for free so that's another potential gift!
Other codes have included 10% for ASOS and Amazon. I think I've saved well over £100 on everything.
Another problem I have is if I buy something in the sale I think "oh I should make it up to £xx.xx even though the original item is probably double the cost if you know what I mean?
I bought my niece a USB speaker for £15.00 and it retails £25-£30 and my budget for her is £25-£30 so technically I should be done right? Lol
I'd love to come under my budget of £600 which includes all family, DS and DH
