Finding great Christmas gifts for £5

Posted on November 2, 2017August 30, 2022 by jenny

I’m sure I can’t be the only person who starts their Christmas planning early. This time of year is busy with family birthdays and school events and the only way I can through it is with lots of lists and being organised. BritMums recently got in touch to see if I would like to take the Sportsdirect.com £5 Christmas Challenge #sdfiverchallenge.

Sportsdirect.com is not just football boots and inexpensive trainers. It features fashion brands, leisurewear and more! Because of its buying power, Sportsdirect.com is able to get products you’d expect to pay a lot more for elsewhere. Their range of £5 gifts for Christmas means you can shop for family, friends, teachers, even your book-club buddies, for less!

I was given a credit to spend on the Sportsdirect.com site and challenged to find gifts that cost £5! I love shopping from the comfort of my own home and spent a happy hour browsing the huge range of gifts on Sportsdirect.com. They sell all the sports clothing and equipment you would expect, but they also stock a range of gifts and toys which I was really surprised by. I’ve been looking for stocking fillers for under £5 and managed to pick up a great selection for my two, including from well known brands.

I ordered a Chelsea Beanie Bear (£4.50) for my 7 year old who loves Chelsea. I also bought the Splatter Face game (£5.00) which looks so much fun, a Paint Your Own Unicorn & Fairies craft kit, as well as The Irish Fairy Door Decorative Grass Patch (£6.99) and The Irish Fairy Door Mail Box for my daughter. Some of the items I bought no longer show up, so if there’s something you want I would buy it quick!

Everything is great quality and arrived quickly. Delivery was £4.99 which seemed reasonable. So if you’re looking for a good range of gifts for under £5 don’t forget to check out Sportsdirect.com.

This post is an entry for BritMums #sdfiverchallenge Christmas Challenge, sponsored by Sportsdirect.com.

    That fairy door kit is so cute! I’ll have to check out sports direct – we have secret santa and £5 gifts is perfect for that.

    That looks like a great range for under £5. My girls would love the splat face although probably wouldn’t like being the one splatted lol.

    Confession time – I have not even started thinking about Christmas shopping yet. My daughter would love the unicorn painting thing. Commenting for myself and on behalf of BritMums and thanking you for taking part

    I love that Sports Direct has such a great range of Christmas Gifts that won’t break the bank. I like the sound of the Paint Your Own Unicorn & Fairies craft kit
