B&M have knocked it out of the park when it comes to their festive buys.
And one woman was so desperate for a £2.50 Christmas buy from the store that she travelled almost two hours to try and find one.
Holly also visited multiple B&Ms in a bid to track down the gorgeous perspex boxes, which are shaped like small presents.
In a video on her TiKTok page, she admitted she’s been hunting for the boxes for “three or four weeks”.
“And I’ve gone to multiple stores in different areas like an hour away, 40 minutes away, like everywhere,” she giggled.
“And I have just managed to find them.”
She initially saw the boxes in September, when the first dregs of Christmas started appearing on shop shelves.
But when she went back to buy them, she couldn’t find them anywhere.
However, she knew they were perfect for putting small gifts in for Christmas, so began her epic search to find them.
“If you’re like me and you have a huge family and for some members of those family they either want money, gift cards, vouchers, etc. but you don’t just want to put it in the standard money wallet or envelope or card…” she added.
“And you want to jazz it up a little bit, I’ve got something for you.”
Holly then showed off the boxes, and admitted she’d picked up five of them ahead of her big wrap.
“This is my idea,” she explained.
“I’m going to fill them with shredded tissue paper and I’m going to put either the money or the gift card or the voucher or whatever inside.
“I’m going to fill it with chocolate coins or sweets or anything like that and I’m going to put a bow around it and that is their gift card, money, voucher, whatever.
“And don’t you think for £2.50 they are beautiful.”
She also said that because she’s going to be giving the boxes to family members, she’s going to ask for the box back once they’ve opened the present.
“So yeah, B&M £2.50. Run, because I think they’ve restocked because the store that we found these in, literally, I checked last week and they weren’t in there,” she concluded.
Tips to make your home smell like Christmas
IF you want your home to smell festive this season, you’ve come to the right place…
- Simmer Potpourri: Simmer a pot of water with cinnamon sticks, cloves, orange peels, and cranberries for a warm, festive aroma.
- Essential Oils: Use a diffuser with essential oils such as pine, peppermint, and frankincense to evoke the spirit of Christmas.
- Bake Seasonal Treats: The smell of fresh-baked gingerbread, mince pies, or spiced biscuits can fill your home with holiday cheer.
- Scented Candles: Light candles with fragrances like mulled wine, fir tree, or spiced apple to create a cosy atmosphere.
- Decorate with Fresh Greenery: Incorporate fresh pine, holly, and eucalyptus into your decorations for a natural, Christmassy scent.
- Make Your Own Pomanders: Stud oranges with cloves and hang them around the house for a traditional and aromatic touch.
- Use Simmering Spices: Boil a mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice in water on the stove to infuse your home with a holiday fragrance.
