Good news for anyone looking to watch their pennies this Christmas, however, as Lidl is selling a set of 3D reindeer light-up figures that won't rack up the energy bill.
Available in stores nationwide now, the supermarket chain's light up figures are priced at £59.99 and depict the classic festive display of reindeers pulling Santa's sleigh.
Costing just 28p to run for the whole of December, based on six hours of use a day, Lidl's lights will help shoppers get into the festive spirit without breaking the bank.
Made up of 120 energy-saving, long-life LEDs, the lights are perfect for illuminating your own festive scenery both indoors and outdoors.
Similarly, the supermarket is also selling 200 LED Starburst String Lights that are equally efficient by costing only 23p to run for the whole of December.
