So one mum was understandably delighted when she came across the Play and Recycling Centre in her local town - where you can fill a trolley full of stuff for a fiver.
There were plastic cups - perfect for crafting - a whole wall full of different ribbons, masks for the kids to colour in, posters and even a Furby book that her daughter spotted on the shelves.
She took to TikTok to share a look inside the recycling centre, as she was left amazed by the variety of things she could take home.
She was immediately bombarded with people asking where it was, as another wrote: "£10 for a full trolley of stuff is insane!".
The first thing Lola came across was a box of random coloured pencils, which she took a few of, as well as a bucket of foil pieces.
