Luckily, the popular home goods store, The Range, has come to rescue once again – this time, with a MASSIVE sleigh that can hold dozens of gifts.
One thrifty woman, Lemmer Jayne, was left stunned when she stumbled across the huge Make Your Own Christmas Sleigh Hamper Assorted – which has now been slashed from £5.99 to just £4.79.
Sharing the must-have festive bargain on TikTok, the mum-of-three advised fellow shoppers to not sleep on the find.
”Don’t walk! RUN! £5.99 in The Range and they’re a beautiful addition to Xmas day,” the delighted parent wrote in the now-viral video.
According to the description online, the dimensions are 96cmx56cm and the sleigh is also easy to assemble with no faff.
What’s more, the fabulous find can not only hold several presents but it can also be then used to store all your Christmas decorations – year after year.
The perfect addition to any Christmas, this light piece is sure to add plenty of magic to your home, especially when placed in the living room next to the decked tree.
Lemmer also showed off fellow social media users how stunning the sleigh looked – and although it’s still a few weeks until Christmas, the bargain find was already packed to the brim with neatly wrapped pressies.
”People that can’t afford big presents can get the sleigh cheap and it’ll make it more magical if they want,” the mum wrote.
The video has clearly impressed many, as it’s already racked up a staggering 1.1million views and hundreds of comments.
One viewer said: ”They do these in b&M for £5 too.”
Another suggested a more purse-friendly alternative if you’re into DIY: ”make one your selfs out hard cardboard and just design it your self much cheaper go get flat boxes from supermarkets.”
Someone else chimed in: ”oh wow I’m getting 4 tomorrow if possible.”
Although many were complaining that their local store had the sleighs sold out, Lemmer claimed that ”The Range have already announced its restocking”.
”that is super cute so gonna get my little boy one for his first Christmas and what a great idea to put the presents in there I would of just had it as a decoration lol,” another mum couldn’t wait to get her hands on the adorable buy.
How to look after your real Christmas tree
HERE’S what you need to know if you’re buying a real Christmas tree:
First thing’s first: buy a pot (if it doesn’t come in one already).
You’ll need to treat your tree just like a houseplant and give it water and attention.
Make sure the container has good drainage – and it’s a good idea to put something underneath to catch the excess water.
Check the soil everyday to make sure it’s not drying out.
If it feels dry, give it some water. If it still feels moist, leave it alone as too much water can also kill a tree.
Also check the LED bulbs on your tree lights aren’t too hot as they could burn it, and keep your tree away from radiators.
When Christmas is over, try planting it in the garden so you can dig it up and use it again next year.
It’s a good idea to take it out of its pot when you do re-plant it though, as large trees don’t survive well in pots as their roots need space to grow.
Festive fail
However, the home goods store was recently slammed over a Christmas tree that you can put up with ”no fuss” – as shoppers insisted it ”takes the magic away”.
The 6ft tree is pre-lit and will set you back £99.99 for the pleasure.
Although it’s called a pop-up tree, perhaps ‘drop down tree’ would be more appropriate, because the tree doesn’t really pop-up at all.
In a video shared to TikTok, The Range demonstrated how the easy it is to assemble the tree, and it really does only take seconds to do.
But the no fuss tree left some shoppers scratching their heads as they claimed it took all the magic and fun out of it.
“It’s more fun sorting the colours of the branches while your family puts them on the tree it’s like a whole production, I love it,” one person commented on the viral video.
“It takes all the magic away,” another said.
And someone else noted: “Since it’s half the effort it should be half the price.”
