It is an old favourite amongst work colleagues, but in times of austerity Secret Santa can also be a great way to cut costs at home too, for the adults at least! Throw everyone’s name into a hat and pick your secret Santa at random.

If you’re stuck for ideas that won’t break the bank, have a look at our top five gift ideas.
