FREE personalised gift cheques

Valentine’s gifts shouldn't be about how much you've spent. Use our free Valentine’s gift cheques to make your other half a promise straight from the heart – pledge to do something nice (or naughty). Thoughtfulness melts the heart far more than a pricey prezzie. Promise your loved one a massage, brekkie in bed, or dinner.

For a homemade gift idea, see MSE Rhiannon's 'Fancy chocs were £20 at Fortnum & Mason – so I made my own for £3ish' blog.

Cheap things to do and activities

£10 to £60 London theatre tickets

For selected performances in 2025, including The Lion King, Mamma Mia! and Wicked

50+ West End shows

Theatre lovers can get £10 to £60 tickets for 50+ London West End shows including biggies such as Disney's The Lion King, Mamma Mia!, Mean Girls, Les Misérables, and Wicked via Official London Theatre's See It Live promotion – check 'More info' below for the full list of participating shows.

Official London Theatre wouldn't tell us exactly how many tickets are available, but it did say it's thousands. It's best to go quick, as in previous years seats for popular shows have sold out fast. You can book until 11.59pm on Friday 31 January, while tickets last.

The discounted tickets are for performances throughout 2025, not just January and February as it was in previous years when it was known as the Official London Theatre New Year Sale. It includes a mixture of matinée, evening, and weekend performances.

The saving you get varies per show and per seat. £10 tickets will usually be the cheapest normal-priced seats in the theatre, and £60 tickets will be the top-priced (non-premium) seats. Though do note, not all shows will offer £10 tickets in this sale.

For other ways to save at the theatre, see our Cheap theatre tickets guide.

Cheap prosecco and champagne

These are some of the cheapest prices we see throughout the year for prosecco and champagne. While the very cheapest time is usually during the festive period, many of the bottle prices below are the same as they were then, so this can be a corking time to buy.

Use the Money Mantras

Before spending, use Martin’s Mantras. If you answer 'NO' to any, then don't buy!

Then ask:

Do I need it?
Can I afford it?
Have you checked prices elsewhere?

Then ask:

Will I use it?
Is it worth it?

Free protection for all shopping!

There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.

And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.
