Looking to impress this Christmas without blowing the budget? Aussies love a good bargain, especially when it looks luxe. Here are five gifts that feel premium but stay wallet-friendly, and where you can pick them up around Australia.
1. Bauhn Bluetooth Suitcase Style Record Player $39.99
You can find this retro chic turntable from Bauhn when it appears in the ALDI Finds middle aisle specials at ALDI supermarkets across Australia. The vintage suitcase look gives it designer appeal without the designer price tag.
2. Velvet Jewellery Organiser under $25
Look for velvet jewellery organisers at budget-friendly retailers such as Kmart, Target Australia or department store homewares sections. They add a boutique, high-end touch to any dresser.
3. Glowing Scene Candles $16
Kmart’s viral Glowing Scene candles are back, still just $16 and often compared to the $59.95 Glasshouse versions. This year, the range includes Candy Cane Lane, Gingerbread House and Christmas Village, all presented in elegant, glowing scene designs that look far more expensive than their price.

5. V-Fitness Smart Watch 2 Inch Touch Screen 34 dollars (JB Hi-Fi)

With these stylish picks from ALDI, Kmart and JB Hi-Fi, you can give gifts that look premium while keeping your Christmas budget happily intact.
