The ultimate guide to Christmas shopping
Christmas shopping stressing you out this year? Don't get your tinsel in a twist. We've put together the ultimate Christmas shopping guide, sharing our top tips on how to ace your gift-giving this festive season.
Set a budget
With gifts to buy for all the family, keeping track of your finances can be a difficult task near Christmas. But setting a budget for all your festive shopping is a great way to ensure that everyone can enjoy Christmas stress-free.
Start by allocating roughly how much you want to spend this year, then make a list of everyone that you want to buy for. Split your budget between the list accordingly - and don't forget to leave a little extra pot for your 'emergency Christmas fund'!

Order in advance
Unfortunately for us, we don't have a pack of magical reindeer and a giant sleigh at our disposal, so getting your gifts sorted in advance is essential for making sure everything runs smoothly.
A great way to take the stress out of Christmas gifting is to buy your presents as far in advance as possible. This gives you more time to wrap, get everything prepared, and most importantly, to sit back and relax.
