My husband and I got so sick of the commercialism of Christmas last year that we set ourselves a challenge - we had £10 each to spend on presents for each other and we had to spend it in a charityshop and see who got the best deal.
I ended up with a brand new suede jacket from Maine at Debenhams (still with price tag on!!) and he got a pair of Versace jeans and Ben Sherman shirt.
Not only that, the kids ended up with more toys than they know what to do with!! We had loads of fun playing some of the older games like Battling Tops and Perfection.
We wanted to get back to what Christmas is all about - spending time with friends, family and people you love not spending loads of money that you don't always have.
