The first note of a Christmas song, the influx of Christmas TV adverts – the big day is now only six weeks away and new research has delved into the Christmas shopping habits of Brits and uncovered that we are a nation of last-minute buyers!

To help us save money and have a stress-free Christmas, Gemma Bird aka MoneyMum is on hand to offer some simple to use tips and advice that we can all take on board as the countdown to Christmas gets closer. Gemma is a working mum-of-two from Essex, and has learnt to be clever with money – coming up with creative ways to save and find deals that she enjoys sharing with others!

When it comes to finding a deal this Christmas, patience and persistence is often the key to uncovering a bargain. Research by VoucherCodes.co.uk shows that UK adults are willing to spend 104 hours shopping online for the best deal on items for Christmas this year.
