In one video she said: "I remember when I had my first baby, her first Christmas six years ago and I remember seeing all over social media these incredible Christmas scenes. "Huge wrapped presents, new bikes, Barbie Dream Houses, the works, and I remember feeling so inferior that I couldn't afford to provide that for my child." Jamie revealed she wanted to normalise Christmas on a budget and share some of the ways she does it. The mum shared how she uses charity shops and sales in stores to find presents for a discount. She then revealed everything she's bought for her daughter's stocking this year for just £20. Jamie revealed in a video that she bought the stocking itself for just 99p on the second-hand selling app, Vinted. Her first tip was to buy multipacks of items and divide them to save money, which she did with a pack of bamboo toothbrushes. She also bagged a couple of sweet treats to put in, but rather than going for the Lint Reindeer chocolate she bought an Aldi version to save money. She also grabbed a Princess tin of chocolate coins from Home Bargains for 99p as well as some Halloween face masks as her daughter 'loves spooky things.' She also nabbed a Gingerbread bath bomb from Home Bargains and a colouring book, a craft kit, and drawing paper. Next was a set of nail stickers and temporary tattoos from Rex of London for £3 each. Lastly, she got her daughter a Scheich spider figurine for her stocking. The total cost was just £20 and Jamie revealed in total she ha){kind=link}
