With retailers pulling out the baubles in June and iconic scents like Snow Fairy flying off shelves, now is the perfect time to stock up and store away. Top tips to save for Christmas Here are Mrs Mummypenny's top tips for saving money at Christmas: 1. Save a little bit every week Placing a small amount into a savings account every week can really add up over time. Many banks offer a round-up function where daily spending is rounded up to the nearest pound, with that amount going to a separate savings pot. 2. Start planning - now If you can identify everything you'd like to do this Christmas, you can work out roughly how much you need to save to cover the entire cost. 3. Get ahead of your bills using your smart meter The screen that comes with your smart meter allows you to see your energy usage, make adjustments and save money. If you have a smart prepayment meter you can top up your credit online or over the phone from the comfort of your own sofa instead of going to the shops. 4. Use loyalty cards and vouchers to pay for Christmas presents Many places offer loyalty schemes such as supermarkets, where you can collect points and vouchers and use them to buy presents. 5. Get cash back on all online purchases Set up an account with the cash back site and go there first to find your chosen retailer. Then click through as normal to your chosen retailer or bill provider, triggering the cookies and getting you the cash back if you make a purchase. 6. Sell your clutter I urge you to spend ten minutes looking around your house and finding ten items that you no longer use or want that you can sell.
