After blasting your student loan on nights out, unnecessary amazon orders and big fat burritos from the Guild, you might be worrying how much further Christmas presents will send you into your overdraft.

Luckily, Liverpool Guild Student Media have found the cheapest and most fabulous budget Christmas presents all under £10, so gather up the last of your pennies!

You might even have some money left over for a final trip to Skint Tuesday’s before Christmas… but let’s be honest, you’re going either way!

The Classic

Terry’s Chocolate Orange

It’s a right of passage that no Christmas is complete without a ball of chocolate orange goodness and for as little as £1 from Iceland, it’s the winning budget present.

The true legend of Christmas chocolate.

If you fancy yourself as the next Gordon Ramsey, then this is the perfect present to give (and no, pot noodles don’t count).

Get stuck in and rustle up a lovely meal for a family member, significant other or a mate. The only catch is that you’re on washing up duty, sorry!

The weird and wonderful

Gin & Tonic Popcorn Pouch

The present that will make a real difference

Christmas is a great time to give to those less fortunate.

A Charity Donation

This Christmas £10 can provide a family with an improved-breed cockerel and hen, as well as training on poultry farming. The eggs will provide a food source and can be sold for income.

Self Help Africa aims to end hunger and poverty in Africa. With 1 in 3 people living in sub-Saharan Africa undernourished, your donation would improve the lives of those who really need your help.

We hope we’ve made Christmas on a budget a little easier for you!
