One money saving idea i use for free wrapping paper is to save old newspapers from dates that i will need presents for i.e. my Brothers birthday is the 5th of March so i have saved a paper from this date (5 years ago now) and each year is use a couple of sheets to wrap his gift in (usefull if it is a broadsheet as this will go further). He loves it, especially as it is getting older now so its really interesting to look back and see what was happening on his birthday x number of years ago. Great info, much appreciated.

One tip that i picked up a few years ago is to not rip the paper from your own presents. If you remove it carefully (this also extends the anticipation of the gift you have received), you can then re use it to wrap other gifts that you want to send or to cover shoe boxes with which also make great gift boxes.
