- The gift must only cost £10
- However you can also included anything you get for free in with the gifts
- In fact the more free gifts the better
- Even the wrapping can be free so cuts down on cost
- Some ribbon given to me by my daughter in law
So free gifts with magazines, things you get free with soap powder, teabags etc, anything anyone gives you, free items you can send for. The friend I am doing this with has not yet discovered my blog, buts she sneaky and might so I cannot tell you everything My friend also crafts. I have so far but I will tell you a few items so you get the idear
- A set of screwdrivers three I got in a cracker:)
- A book I got from a bookshelves where you can exchange one for another so that makes it free
- Some free stash from a magazine
Now you have heard of our little game any idears for free stuff would be most welcome I want to give her the biggest present I can for only £10 I will photograph it all and share it later on in the year and maybe the odd items as I collect them
If any of you decided to join in this challenge please can you tell me so we can follow each other blogs and share idears :)

This challenge I like Alma! I'll see if Pat's up for this and let you know. I have some small "cracker items" somewhere.
Brilliant idea - thanks so much for passing it on.

Good luck with getting lots of freebies. You are very resourceful, so I am sure you will get a G-I-A-N-T parcel for her!
Sounds like a fun challenge, have fun collecting freebies :)

This sounds such fun! Hmmm - being on a stash ban inbetween Ally Pally shows makes it very creative work getting stuff on the cheap or for free in between the shows. I can recommend Freecycle, keep an eye on that. Snipping buttons off old clothes and popping them in a coffee jar, decorate that - free embellies ;) Enter as many blog candies as you can - you think you'll never win but you'd be surprised. Enter competitions, lots of competitions. Again you'd be surprised if you enter enough what you'll win. Readitswapit - online book swap. I'll have a think see if I can think of anything else...
This sounds like it could be fun! I am going to watch this one with anticipation!

Oh wow what an absolutely amazing idea, can't wait to see all the 'free' stuff as you collect it, if I can get any ideas I will let you know - do 'buy one get one free' items count ????? XXX
Try using presents given to you that you don't like/want/use.
oh what a fun idea alma, cannot wait to see a photo of what you collect...

this is a fantastic idea - my crafty friends and I are always exchanging stash would that count?? you are not buying the items - you could add a % to the present!
