Parents have been rushing to get their hands on Home Bargains' budget nativity costumes.
With Christmas shows and plays happening up and down the country over the next few weeks, the demand for outfits soars.
But many of them can cost a fortune and with families already struggling to make ends meet, most people don't want to be splashing out on something that's only needed the once.

That's why one mum has shared a photo of the costumes she's seen available in budget store Home Bargains.
Posting a photo of the outfits in a money-saving Facebook group, she said: "For anyone who’s looking for costumes for Christmas Nativity. Home Bargains have a selection."
Her photo shows a range of outfits, including an inn keeper, an angel and Mary - with its own cuddly baby Jesus - priced from £6.99.
Hundreds of parents responded to the post, with some saying they'd been struggling to find certain costumes and others saying they had looked elsewhere, but hadn't considered looking in B&M.
Dozens of others tagged in fellow parents to help them with their search.
Some parents said they don't need to buy a costume as school or nursery provides them.
