Christmas is about expressing love to your dear ones, and that doesn't always have to come with an enormous price tag. Here are a few tips that will help you buy thoughtful presents on a budget.

1. Plan before you hit the shops: Being thoughtful about what your family would want as a gift would not only make them happy but also save you money. Ask them what they’d like, pre plan your list, budget your expenditure for each person and shop accordingly.

2. Secret Santa: Buying gifts for everyone can be an expensive, especially if you have a big family. Planning a Secret Santa will not only save you money but will also make the tradition of gifting more exciting!

3. Handmade goodies: Gifting handmade gifts such as cookies, cakes, brownies, cards, soaps or candles, can be very thoughtful and intimate. This will not only save you money but could also be an opportunity for you to put on your creative hat and flaunt your skills.

4. Regifting: There is no shame in regifting good products or gifts that you haven't used. What may not be of use to you might be useful for someone in your family. It is a sustainable choice and can also save you money.

5. Gift Vouchers: Giving your family gift vouchers from brands that they love or may want to try can be a useful gift. An amazing option is giving gift vouchers from Co Wheels. It will pave the way for their sustainable, convenient and affordable travel and will be a thoughtful gift.
