Too Good at Bargain Hunting?

I've had such a good crop of bargains this year I'm starting to worry I'll make people feel awkward with stupidly lavish gifts.

I'm doing a £30 stocking for someone this year, and one of things they asked for was Sanctuary Spa stuff, so I set about looking for what I could get for a tenner, and was a bit disappointed with the dinky sets of crap -value half-size bottles. Imagine my joy when my regular trawl of TK Maxx netted me a honking great box stuffed with £25's worth full-size bits for £10.

But now I'm looking at it thinking it not only looks massively extravagant, especially with everything else (I've made that £30 go a loooong way), it won't even fit in the bloody stocking unless I empty it out of its lovely gift box. Ahhhgh.

Surely some of you professional standard bargain hunters are in the same boat?

My sister tasks me with buying stocking fillers for her children and is amazed with how much I can get for the budget.

My trick is to make sure the gifts I buy 'look' of equal value, even if I haven't spent the same.
