Christmas is no doubt the most exciting time of the year for me, I love everything about it from the seasonal festivities, glistening fairy lights to of course, the shopping.
When it comes to Christmas shopping and working through our lists, I have to admit, I quite often go ever so slightly over the top, so when I heard of this "guilt-free shopping" scheme which works with over 2,000 online retailers to make a donation from each purchase to your choice of one of 200,000 UK based charities I was ever so impressed.
To date Give as you live has raised an excellent £3million for charities via sales and honestly it couldn't be easier to use. The concept is incredible and with all of my favourite online stores on board, including Topshop, Feel Unique, Selfridges, Boots, iTunes, John Lewis and so many more, I'm all signed up and ready to start helping.
Before shopping, you have the chance to search for your chosen charity as well as view the percentage that will be donated with your purchase which is all very clear and varied between retailers.
Every gift you buy online for someone this Christmas, also helping to raise money for a charity really is such a lovely thought and I will certainly be searching through their online retailer lists before I add to my basket in the future.
Below I've put together a few things that are on my Christmas list this year, that are available through Give as you live.
