A WOMAN has shared how she made a "luxury hamper" from Aldi for under £10 per person.
Mum, Mandy Charlton shared what she bought to put in the hamper to her TikTok account, on which she often posts budgeting tips and tricks.
In the video, Mandy said: "If you're on a budget this Christmas, you can get all of this for under £20 to make a two-person boujee on a budget Christmas hamper."
The mum said that the cost did not include the price of the hamper, but said that you could just use something you have lying around the house for this, such as a cardboard box wrapped in Christmas wrapping.
The first luxury item that Mandy put into the hamper was a tin of caramel coffee, which she said cost around £2.49.
Next, she added a jar of spiced apple and pear chutney, which she priced at £1.
