Any Christmas tips?

Not the kind you give to tradesmen etc but wondered if anyone has any time saving tips re Christmas.

Browsing online I came across personalised sticky labels to stick on gifts instead of the usual ones. They come in a sheet of 15 I ordered one with both of my grandchildren's names on. I’ve wrapped the presents up today and they are so much quicker just sticking these on than writing labels out. Next year I will be ordering a sheet for each member of the family.
A great buy.

I highly recommend asking adult family members to agree to do Secret Santa. Only one present to buy and wrap. We use an online app called Draw Names. Works so well, you can set up a wish list to give ideas of what you’d like or just have a surprise.
Set your budget to whatever feels comfortable for you. Saves so much time, effort and money.
