Ok, here's my hot tip for a cheap Christmas: in about August get someone to wrap up some of your possessions that you like but can do without for a few months. Then in December, unwrap them! You'll be amazed by what you've forgotten you had, so you won't miss out on surprise and excitement. Plus you liked the stuff before so chances are you'll like it all over again. Brilliant. Do this for your immediate family members and think of the savings!

Time for a Christmas caption competition - any suggestions?
