Christmas gets expensive fast, especially when you start adding treats, stocking fillers and last-minute gifts to the trolley.
But M&S has pulled together a bunch of festive picks under £10 that look far more “premium” than their price.
If you want something small that still feels special, these are the ones worth a look.
Big Bubbly Santa – £1.75
This is the classic “grab one for the kids” chocolate. Light, airy and surprisingly big for the price. It’s the sort of thing that disappears the second you put the shopping away.
Pistachio Gnomes – £5
These used to be simple chocolate gnomes, but they’ve had a glow-up. The pistachio crème coating makes them look far more premium. Great for stockings or small gifts that feel a touch special.
Happy Christmas Mini Selection – £4
A neat little box of six festive chocolates in different flavours. It’s the perfect “quick gift” for teachers, neighbours or Secret Santa.
Double Devon Toffee Tree – £5
Thick, chewy and packed with that proper Christmas-toffee flavour. A fun shape and an easy win for anyone who loves traditional sweets.
Letters to Santa Gingerbread Tin – £5
A festive tin filled with gingerbread biscuits. Ideal for sharing at home, at school, or at work — and you can reuse the tin afterwards.
Push Along Vintage Car – £5
A playful chocolate car loaded with fruit-flavoured jellies. Kids will love the novelty almost as much as the chocolate itself.
Peppermint Bark – £10
A proper treat for mint fans. Caramel crunch, milk chocolate and Swiss milk chocolate layered together for a very grown-up flavour.
Festive Magic Projector Tin – £10
This tin lights up and projects a little Christmas scene. Kids will play with this long after the chocolate has gone, making it a great value gift.
Salted Caramel and Chocolate Chunk Cookies Santa Hat Tin – £7
Soft, chewy and packed with flavour. These taste much more premium than supermarket cookies and are great for movie nights or visitors.
Shortbread Light-Up House – £7
A charming little light-up house tin filled with buttery shortbread. Once the biscuits are gone, the tin becomes a cute decoration you can bring out every December.
The Marksologist Cocktail Pack – £10
The iconic M&S tinnies are back, ready to gift to your tinnie obsessed friend this Christmas.
Christmas can drain your budget quickly, especially once treats, gifts and unexpected extras start landing in the trolley.
But you don’t need pricey hampers or huge chocolate boxes to make things feel special. These under-£10 picks bring plenty of festive joy without the scary price tag.
Whether you’re filling stockings, sorting Secret Santa, or just building up a stash of December snacks, choosing a few of these smaller M&S treats can make the season feel fun without overspending.
