IT may have only been one month ago, but Christmas already feels like a distant memory.
While many of us are looking towards spring, one super organised woman is still very much in the festive spirit – and has even sorted out her Christmas shopping for next year.
And the best part of all? It cost her just £40 in total.
Katy May took to money-saving Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK and shared a snap of her huge cut-price Claire's haul.
Alongside the image, she penned: "I do mega advent calendars each year for my girls and they get a goodie bag each day for December.
"Decided to start prepping early this year and got all of this stuff from Claire's 5 items for £5. On all sale items!"

Katy went on to reveal exactly how she managed to get such good bargains – and it turns out, it's easy enough for anyone to do.
"I had to do separate transactions because shop assistant said they also had an offer for buy 3 items, get 3 free," she explained.
"If she had put it through altogether it would've automatically done that offer and would've been a lot more."
The post has since garnered over 2,000 likes and hundreds of comments from social media users.
"What a saving!!" enthused one.
A second praised: "This is amazing!!"
A third penned: "Lovely well done you! Great saving for next Xmas."
Meanwhile, a fourth commented: "Brilliant!"
